I have couple of questions from people who are well versed with this zip code and can offer valuable suggestions / recommendations, if any. - Is New Port Richey a nice area to invest from a buy and hold perspective?

When determining what probate cases have real estate, there is a code attached to the case.

I keep track of checks and dates received.I use a SUM function to see how much is owed, how much outstanding and total interest rate.I can color code redeemed properties a different color.It is super easy to customize. and once you set it up it automates everything but entering the data once you get a redemption check or a deed.You can copy over the tab to a new one and start a new year with all your formulas intact.

If you choose to do the renovation or remodel the basement, find out what the code is for the work including any egress windows or exits, to be done, pull the permits and do the work. or hire it out. 

IRC § 1031 even addresses properties held for fewer than two years (only the periods during which the property was held are taken into account, unless it looks as though an individual is deliberately trying to “avoid the purpose” behind the code).The safe harbor, essentially, is something like that IF…1.

I want to automate the showing process, by having prospects registering (sending maybe a copy of the DL) and providing them a unique code within a specific time window to go and see the property. 

Here is what I would do.1) Ask to purchase the home owner finance from the owner as is.  2) If he says no, report the home to code enforcement and get it condemned.3) Once condemened, go back to #1.

He even measured the railing on the balcony and discovered it was not up to code.

Denial  there was 60k of code violations as well I could have got those negotiated down to 10k or so.. but the seller would not cooperate so that money came out of her proceeds as well..
