(Keep in mind that a lot can happen in the 4 years it takes before one can apply for the tax deed and these properties had to be real dogs in order to not be bid on by investors)  They had no exit strategy and almost all of the homes ended up with code enforcement lie and some of the homes ended up being demolished before we got to them.We ended up taking a contract on 185 properties around FL and have succeeded in getting these homes off of their books but for pennies on the dollar and are now their exclusive liquidation arm, but had we not come around, they would have ended up losing everything on those homes. 

Median house price of the zip code I am buying increased 10% and 8%, respectively for the last two years.

If you check groupon first, you might be able to get a coupon code.

@Rigo Monzalvo also, what good are codes if you don't know how to inform people to follow them?

After posting your rental to Postlets there is some code that you can copy and paste into Craigslist.

Yeah, to get in good and know the properties that have coding violations, you should be very familiar with the "vip" people in your local government.

Wanted to share with everyone the home that my Co has built that beats the code in energy efficiency by 62%.It's 13,000 sq ft (not including 4 car garage).The average winter temp inside of the home is 75 degrees from 6 am till 11p and 72 degrees at night.In the summer interior temp is 74 degrees with humidity of 30%.Average monthly heating, cooling and electric bill is under $200

The mortgage that was vacated was originally $130k (curious because the property isn't worth half that)Called city to see if there were any open code violations: there were none.  

It is the sellers problem not yours and they will decide if the can or are willing to comply with the request based on state landlord tenant codes and how motivated they are to sell.

How you can get around that with out alarming the tenants is to tell the owner someone from the insurance company will be coming by to inspect the property to make sure everything is up to code so the insurance can be renewed.
