I will specifically be working in the Spring and Woodlands areas of Texas, and could be close to zip code 77379. 

I get my real estate license in March to help find deals and am currently looking to creatively finance two single family homes or duplexes in any of the zip codes below because I like these areas! 

.- replace front and back doors and door frame (2)- plumbing/wiring for Washer/Dryer hookups- get kitchen outlets up to code so appliances work safely- paint and add knobs to kitchen cabinets - kitchen sink fix (replace faucet)- insulation of windows - plastic lining- make sure smoke detectors are working/to code- get garage door working - needs to be hooked back up - exterior siding cleaning OR paintingLet me know if you think this sounds reasonable or not...

Was just wondering if there was an additional municipal code outside of the RTLO that regulated OO buildings.

We've also been pushing the limits of what's allowed by both the Philly code and building code in order to help our clients get the best return on their investment (getting an extra bedroom in a unit, or a whole extra unit can be huge), so we like to think we innovate in that arena as well. 

Be that as it may, be aware if the rebuild costs exceed generally something like 50% of value, you have to bring everything up to current code, which may include current floor elevations being higher, which would cost more than the end value.

and why does your architect not know the local codes?

I have a code for 20% off Mile IQ if you choose the paid subscription. https://www.mileiq.com/invite/WHCJMI think the app is free for up to 20 drives a month.  

My research into these areas shows that you will have a lot of code enforcement problems, lead paint claims against you.

The QL agent told me he could waive the origination fee if I am giving a referral code which would save me 750$.
