Longterm, it’s preferable to punch your debt in the face and hold onto your property but if you do sell that will definitely jump start your debt freedom journey which would add a measure of safety for your family and peace for your pregnant wife (congrats btw!).

Hi John,120 degrees Fahrenheit is the safety recommendation against scalding, but 140° is the common default setting. 

You are wise to research the area for safety.

It's not like he or she will come inspect your camera installation so a written "do this, don't do that" isn't that expensive.And I really don't mean to be a downer or anything but if your tenant is concerned about safety, solid deadbolts, sturdy doorframes and a monitored alarm would be worlds better than a camera system that only passively records things.

You will find it very difficult to find financing due to location/low cost for lenders (commercial especially), finding good tenants is much harder and you will have to lower your criteria, safety concerns if you self manage, and difficulty trying to get anything done with the city.

You would not even store your own belongings their let alone have yourself or anyone you know live their.The City of Rochester Building and Safety will not pass inspection on this house.Return the full deposit.

What do you use to test the hot tub for safety and to adjust any chemical levels? 

I know this was a while ago, but incase someone has the same question I would like to put my thoughts into this discussion.The first thing you should do is call the city building & safety to check if they have any concerns or codes that they will require when you build.

I don't know how the law works in your state, but perhaps similar to Maryland in that if serious repairs (that affect health and safety) are not done by the landlord in a reasonable amount of time, the tenant can file for rent escrow.
