It may be easy to rectify, maybe not, depends on your jurisdiction, the issues involved and the City's stance. 

Hey @Edward Zachary Samperio, have you called each municipality involved to double check the regs?

This is in RI so letting the heat out is not just a big cost but a risk.

Pricing models vary, but I use a flat-fee approach based on the intensity of design strategy and level of investor involvement.

Enclosed a few pics for your reference.Should I involve the HOA?

I currently broker LIHTC multi-family for a large firm coast to coast and am also interested in MF in the Arizona submarkets as well, and will eventually invest on that scale - I just figure breaking into the state through SFH flips may be a more risk adverse way to understand the pros and cons to phoenix submarkets.

There is no stock account that gives the leverage real estate does, at as low interest rate real estate does, at as low risk/ volatility real estate does. 

We would rather perform a Dust Wipe Inspection immediately to identify definitively if there are lead-paint risk/hazards within a unit to avoid redundancies and subjective behaviors.As for funding/grants, I know there are avenues to acquire funds to assist in paying for remediation, however that is not the focus of my organization.

But I would remain open to long-term rental as an option as this seems like a more stable option in terms of income, again this may be my inexperience talking.However, I have always  been somewhat risk averse and investing in real estate is always a big venture, in my opinion/experience, in terms of capital.

If they don't have reviews after searching that's a bit of risk.
