Exterior: Make sure that the paint is uniform, that there are no spots.

And as @Justin Kovach mentioned the code is pretty much the same because they all follow the same IRC ( just a slight correction in Justins comment - if you are remodeling a residential house you are following the IRC not the IBC, and its the Uniform Construction Code of the State that adopts the different codes not the IBC, hope you don't take offense to corrections Justin ) He is right that they are pretty much the same, NJ has its own version with some changes, but the railing code is the same as PA.

I believe you're asking about the Offer to Purchase contract.In general, anyone can write a contract between two parties - - it's part of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)

Regardless of local zoning, the federal occupancy limits are below:"Section 503(b) of the Uniform Housing Code sets the minimum size for a dwelling.

They change out of uniform before leaving the district.  

It actually works quite well in larger subdivisions with uniform housing stock, the opposite is true in rural areas or homes that are a little different than the comps or areas where the housing stock is very diverse.

This is because, while rate pricing varies by the above factors, the rate of change is fairly uniform.

@Jared Bouzek @Carl Olsen @Dan Mackin @Travis Sperr  thanks for the inputs , they have certainly made me more educated and helped put things in the right perspective and will help me make a more uniformed decision.

These days, every lender I've spoken with says that the contract must be dated day 91 or later.If I recall, the actually FHA guideline is a bit ambiguous, but every lender appears to be enforcing it uniformly these days...

A minor can own property in a trust with a trustee who is of legal age or through a custodian using the Uniform Gift to Minors Act
