I told him that all the propositions on the ballot would likely pass as people are too dumb to recognize the costs.

Hi Everyone, I currently am in a pickle, I had a tenant pass a background check and sign a lease. 

Make sure the multi-family property will pass a FHA inspection.

Indian Rocks, Madeira, Treasure Island, Pass-a-Grill, Clearwater, etc. all have different code enforcement, some of which are more lenient than others. 

Collect information early and then determine if you want to offer a renewal and what changes you want to make (price, term, etc.)Here's my process:90 - 120 days prior, inspect the rentalCompare inspection results to previous inspectionsReview Tenant ledger, notes, communications, etc.Study market rates and decide whether an increase or other change is dueDecide if I recommend keeping the tenant or notTalk to owner about my recommendation to keep tenant, verify Landlord wants to continue renting and see if they have any changes to their plans with the propertyIf everything lines up, offer tenant a renewal 30 -60 days prior to terminationIf I find problems during the inspection, I may give the tenant 7 - 14 days to correct the issue(s) and pass a second inspection.

Here are just a few variables:  State, county, size of lot, land locked or road access, utilities in road, will the property pass a perc test, zoning, set-backs, inside of HOA or not, restrictions, etc...

I also question the tenant pool who is only paying cash, are they under the table type folk who don't want to report income and avoid banks, if so they are basically judgement proof and I'm assuming won't pass a background check.

I personally recommend using a "decision report" service whereby the tenant has to pass a certain level of criteria for credit and criminal histories.

I personally dont worry about knob and tube wiring, it can be costly but i wouldnt pass a house by just because of it (if everything else is in line). good luck to you!
