While other investors/landlords are running scared from it, I find it easier to comply and more economically sound than to fight it.About 10-12 years ago, Toledo came up with an Ordinance to not allow more than 3 non-related tenants to occupy a house.

If the appraiser calls it out, assume a qualified licensed inspector of the thing will be required to inspect and comment on remaining economic life of the thing, and if he says it's no good, dead deal.

Anyone have experience they can share and do you think something like this Foxconn investment might change the local economics in a positive way for investors?

Hi Jon - for places outside of Toronto, the areas that you will commonly hear about that have economic growth and are closer to cashflowing than right in the city are Barrie, Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge and Durham Region (particularly Oshawa). 

I've done my market research on Daytona Beach and Volusia County as a whole and it seems to be like the prime market due to it's current economic growth as well as it's projections.

Also, as another surprise - the county Board of Health had apparently had multiple complaints of trash outside.

However, the type of repair, the extent of repair, and the duration of the repair will need to be taken into consideration.The tenants are entitled to a place that is "habitable" and to "peaceful enjoyment of the home".The landlord has certain obligations they must fulfill to protect the health and well being of the tenants during renovation and repair.There is a an excellent booklet put out by the EPA that landlords are required to provide to tenants when a significant amount our work is being done on an older building.

Fortunately for everyones health, the unit was tested in every location and there was no leak.
