Still, this gives you another out (code violation letters) for breaking lease and evicting. 

They may also have a file on this property, which you can review for status history and previous violations. 

(I just found out that BP, doesn't like for folks to ask for mentors or offer deals, pretty sure I'm not violating anything, but if I am just delete this bad boy)

We have escalating fees for violation of the town party ordinance and a police citation. 

As far as risk for the seller, I was referring to risks associated with violating the DF Act specifically.

I have and could, but I'd probably kill 90% of the deals as I can tell that there is a gross lack of knowledge out there, from the pitchman to the "legal advisors" they all claim to have.Most are in violation of laws they may not even be aware of, then again, they might be.

I am on the fence if I want them out or not due to too many lease violations to count.

Perhaps it would be prudent, when purchasing future properties, to check with the town building inspector as to whether or not there are any outstanding violations.

If the tenants are bad, then typically they are violating some part of your lease, and you could evict on those grounds.Sometimes also you get tenants looking for short-term rentals, maybe they just moved to the area, or looking to buy a house etc..  

when marketing to code violations do you mail direct to the house with the violation or look up to see who is owner on title and mail to them?
