We have a town here that is in a flood zone and if anyone does a substantial remodel, they need to do things like make sure the HVAC and I think the electrical panel are above the 100 year flood elevation.

Even the most expensive doors we use (with side panel glass) is only about $600.But again, it sounds like you might be working on high-end or architecture specific houses that require semi-custom or custom finishes...

Does it have electric modern breaker panels? 

It got a new roof, windows, doors, electric panel, new stairs, roof over the back door, new flooring throughout, paint throughout, carpet in attic, drywall in attic, new sink and cabinets in bathroom, brick repair, this list goes on...

If, however it truly gets out of hand to a point of creating a fire hazard or impeding the ability to make a reasonably hasty exit; or if they are completely blocking an exit or an electrical panel; or excessively stockpiling recyclables or flammable material; if food has been clearly left out for extended periods, with roaches crawling all over it or worse, and household rubbish is not being reasonably contained, I will give them ONE 30 day period to make dramatic improvement, a second violation would result in non-renewal or termination for cause.

Its sturdy enough to build 1 1/4" x 3' x 7' panels.

Can the footings be reused for an iron fence panel?

Panels?

Also, typically if there is no meter base there may not even be an electrical panel.

I am now a licensed insured home inspector/contractor that can redo plumbing to wire up electrical panels and etc and currently becoming hvac certified.
