The rules were set-up so you won't be able to comply without subcontracting to an asbestos abatement company and that's where it gets expensive.Some investors think they can avoid an asbestos abatement company and perhaps they are right.

You also said you are renting, then you mentioned as an investment, if you are going to do seller financing as an owner occupant you and the seller need to comply with Dodd-Frank and be qualified for the financing.

You must comply with the checklist here to pass the inspection.

I’m starting my first cold calling campaign using a list of about 500 that I’ve complied from driving for dollars.

The company will provide proof of funds paperwork for your deal once they've reviewed it and make sure it complies with local contact law.

Modern Islamic Finance essentially provides a large number of "work arounds" that still comply with the religious law.

My only issue with that is if I do this I feel like I'm training them wrong and then they will know if they let things go then I'll just comply. 

Although I agree with you that many of the things you listed in your prior post are tenants "taking advantage of the system", the one item I left behind in that quote does not fall into that category IMO - there is a burden on the landlord to comply with all laws, rules, ordinances, and regulations so it's not the tenant's fault the landlord did not comply for whatever reason (usually ignorance).

I have a maximum occupancy stated for each unit and in the rental agreement they initial that they will comply.

So if landlords fail to strictly comply with that statute, they face potential liability that exceeds the deposit amount.
