Any preferred zip code?

There were no building codes in those periods and there could be major work involved with electrical, plumbing, insulation, hazardous materials, restrictions on types of exterior repairs, etc.As far as value, I would try comp to other homes built prior to 1900. 

All bathrooms require either an operable window or exhaust fan to meet code.

The third is that the NAHB's eight divisions of construction cost breakdown are very useful because they follow the general order a house is built in and make it easy for field, office and supervisory personnel to code expenses properly.

The freedom to invest in whatever you want as long as it is not prohibited under the tax code.

Bexley is one of the wealthiest areas of columbus.Also in bexley there are certain codes you have to follow when repairing houses.

Something wrong with living in different area codes once in a while?

It may become a landlord issue when housing or health codes require it because the property’s conditions violate health and safety codes.As you mentioned Brian, when I purchase a multi-unit I will likely go under contract with a pest control company because, in this type of dwelling there will be more people in the building with different characters (some clean, some not so), but in a single family home (since I’m not required to) I think the tenant being the only family there, and having more control over the presence or not of pest being in the home should handle it, unless of course we’re talking about termites.I’m all for pre-move in pest control.

However it is a violation of the code of ethics of the NAR and those rules and penalties apply if your a realtor, but a licensee who is not a realtor can contact listed owners whenever they want.
