Kitchens have a ton of updated code requirements, and as soon as you open any walls, you'll need to update electrical and plumbing to code.

Would make sure all work on the house is done to code. 

@Sandra Regnell sign up for one of the webinars Brandon sometimes gives out discount codes for upgrades.

If you have a number of code violations with electrical wiring, it’s need to be repaired, but in general does not provide any value from an appraisal or ARV it just needs to be corrected.  

Skip trace the owners, drive by the home to see if it is vacant & either contact them on on social media or door knock.. of course you can code call too.. but make you sure you scrub the numbers.

What areas, zip-codes you 're looking at?

Throwing out ideas to increase occupancy…What if you were one of the only hosts to offer free food delivery in the form of gift cards or coupon codes at a time when no one wants to go to the grocery store and they HAVE to order takeout/delivery?

The deal can still make sense, bit it got me thinking... is it ever the case that a municipality would agree to settle large code enforcement fines like this?

Is your home up to property code? 

Upon taking down drywall we found a lot of water damage and many framing issues that are against current code standards - headers and floor joists had to be replaced, the back of the house had to be jacked up 2 inches across a 40 yard span.
