I need to find a trustworthy structural contractor to help that is knowledgeable in building code for that area.

Who they are:- CPA with gratuitous knowledge of the tax code, who is not afraid of the words "real estate investor."

It is all new code and changing quickly so there are many CPA's that are confused about it and you don't want one of them advising you.Now for the good news, if you make it through the hoops AND your OZ investment is a home run, you will NEVER have to pay taxes on the new gains of the OZ investment itself.

And some of them were kit houses built when there were no building codes by just the homeowner themselves and his friends or neighbors maybe.

It's too short a timespan for a long-term lease on your home, the regulations in Nashville are too strict for you to do a short-term rental; you could do something like a corporate rental/rent to traveling nurses but then you'd need to furnish the house too.  

I love the creators code and pitch anything by Oren klaff I believe.

I believe the bank was trying to not break the code of  ant forclose if in bankrupcy but wanted to sell the house.

In Texas, it is legal and can be done, but compliance is strict and cost for failure too much. 

The property is in North East Philly, Zip Code is 19136Thanks so much

@James Williams do you mind sharing the location of such property or zip code.
