It would take the better part of 2 days to get inside every unit to inspect, plus go over the financial with a fine tooth comb, verify utilities, and check with the city on any outstanding code issues....why would I burn up two days of my time only to uncover countless other lies when the Seller wouldn't even respond on paper? 

A lot of weird numbers, CAD codes, FAC #,etc, depending on the agency. 

Do you know your local jurisdictions codes, laws and requirements for contractors?

If you want to get a CoC, it will all have to be brought up to code.

13905 area code.

I'm physically not built for it (especially all the sheets of 5/8 going on the current project to meet multi family fire codes), and I can struggle through the mud work and end up with a decent product but only after splattering it all over the floor and redoing mistakes way more times than I should have to. 

Electrical code is quickly changing for more and more fire safety.

So property owners are left with manipulating NOI as an option to alter Value.
