i would put in smoke detectors, handrails and lighting, i also believe that because it is a multifamily that is a requirement that even the town has. if you are referring to electrical outlets and separating circuits, then yes, when you remodel that triggers bringing everything up to code.

Much whining and complaining later, and many explanations by me about how much it costs to keep the heat at 85 and how no one else in the building complains and they all have the same set up, and one call to the utility company when their CO detector went off (they decided using the gas stove to heat the place was a good alternative) the tenant (who pays their own electric) has purchased space heaters.  

Igor:I suspect when you next renovated, you will be required to hardwire your detectors.  

The other realtor talked me out of student housing because her students drove an SUV into a dining room and others took batteries out of the CO and smoke detector to put in their controls!!!

The 10 day wait is a period for filing a motion relating to a defective foreclosure proceeding only.  

Don't be paralyzed by fear or not knowing exactly what the right next step is...You will only figure it out by going through the motions. 

I spent about 10 hours (and $250) painting chipped paint, Installing some smoke detectors and replacing a window, but was able to keep the deal alive. 

I found BP through a friend of mine about a month ago and I have learned so much from the podcast and forums but now it is time for me to get out there and put some things in motion.

Do You Change the Locks, Check Smoke Detectors and Make Sure There are Adequate Peep Holes Before Every New Tenant?
