The age of the house not only means that you will have many many issues, it also means that touching anything will likely trigger code upgrades.  

You have to use due diligence to get it rented, at least according to our code.  

If you buy at the auction you will be buying it subject to any other liens, including other certificates, loans, code enforcement liens, association liens, etc.

However, if you own a MF property and live in part then you can take advantage of both sections of the code to create some tax free and some tax deferred gain.It's a pretty powerful way to use deferred tax to enhance building your portfolio and move the property geographically and change type without having to  pay tax.

Search the zip codes and neighborhoods that you're buying in and make sure that you get feedback on the locations from those familiar with KC in BP.

I live in the Bronx, NY and wouldn't mind purchasing from China, but I am concerned about it meeting NYC building code and passing inspection.  

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

I have been reading the TX property code and it sounds like I should have given a separate written 3-day notice to vacate or a unpaid rent reminder before giving the pay or vacate eviction notice.
