If the property needs all this work is it actually up to code, does it have current certificates of occupancy?

Sounds like a certificate of occupancy, COO or C of O.  

I plan on pursuing my certification in 2018.

Since I plan on living in this I do not mind keeping money tied up in the property to make sure everyone gets paid back.i wished I could get a flood insurance quote but the insurance company said I need an elevation certificate done.i have a friend live some what in the area and said he pays 700/ year which is something I can afford if I can get some what the same price. 

Also, make the contractor name you or your entity as additional insured on their policy and provide you with insurance certificates and endorsements prior to starting work.

LEASES□Do you have all required certificates of inspection (certificates of occupancy / landlord licenses) required for your property?

@Galvin DueslerGo to your counties vital statistics dept. and request a copy of the death certificate.

Hi everyone,To be involved with real estate investing, I was looking at certain certifications to becoming a realtor. 

I have seen some where you can’t have any unrelated individuals rent, can only rent out once a year, can’t have Commercial vehicles, limit the number of rentals or they only give out so many “rental certificates “, high app fees for them to approve, the list goes on and on.... perform your due diligence 

The PM maintains a list of vendors who they vet and must ensure the vendors are compliant with their operating standards such as having a Certificate of Insurance naming the PM as an additional insured, receive invoices from said vendors, pay vendors, checks vendor work (in some cases) and ensure the invoice is appropriately accounted for in the asset/owners account.
