I am not opposed to it completely, I am just cuious as to how other people in NC legally get around those requirements or if there is additional information I am just not aware of. 

This is a list that I have come up with along the way (some of these came off the inspection report):Inspect/clean chimneyInspect/clean dryer ventExterior dryer vent guardSmoke AlarmsCarbon Monoxide DetectorsFire-Rated/Steel Garage entry doorDeadbolts on all exterior doorsOur second rental property is on the market and based on activity will probably be rented in a couple of weeks.  

High build primer (like that used in automotive finishes) simply puts a thicker coat....so that sanding will take out the imperfection...as opposed to using mud (or putty in automotive).  

As opposed to useful info like zip code or neighborhood or city data.City of Birmingham has a 33%+ poverty rate of residents.  

You mention you're trying to wholesale this house, so I'm going to assume that means you're trying to find a buyer to assign the contract to (as opposed to actually taking ownership and then reselling to the end buyer).If that's the case, you cannot "give the tenants notice to leave/vacate" as it has been suggested. 

Nonetheless, buying parts from the original manufacturer is likely to be more costly than using one of the suggestions above.It looks like some of the cabinet boxes are colored on the inside to match the exterior - that is often done when the doors have clear glass... if so, a nice touch that may be less expensive than raised panels.

*I picked buy and hold for single family houses because I like long- term money hitting my bank account on a monthly basis....opposed to someone who maybe wants 20..50k from a single deal* Also, strategy could be based on risk tolerance/preference.The idea is just pick your direction and GO WITH IT.

Just so happens that tomorrow is the annual "summer picnic", so it's a solid 3+ hours of networking, as opposed to educational speakers the majority of the time, as is normally the case. 

It also includes a very thorough exterior job, from roof and rafter tail ends and new gutters, to replacing all suspect siding and replacing all windows, sliders and doors.

Exterior will include two deck additions, demo and redo of concrete drive, patio and sidewalks. 18 x 20 garage to be finished as studio and include addition of 1/2 bath.
