With assurance and confidence comes a tremendous power.

They should be able to tell you exactly what you need to be in compliance. 

Anything from your comfort doesn't matter.Later check with that property assurance - Like whether is that a good area/environment to stay, for primary safety & security reasons.Check whether the dealer makes your requirement simple as such!

Even when homeowners purchase properties that have had work done before they purchased it, it could still fall on them to bring the property into code compliance; especially if it is noted with violations.

Usually, if a 30-year restriction, here's the timeline issues:1) Year 15 - The property is easier to sell since the tax credits last for 10 years to the buyer then you need 5 more years to make sure the property remains in compliance. 

This is yet another reason why it makes no sense for anyone to attemot to operate their business without legal compliance.

Old properties are also extremely expensive to renovate, particularly since most towns force full code compliance when you renovate more than 50% of the structure (I have no idea how HGTV people do it).

You may wish to confirm that the new 401k provider will handle the ongoing compliance support such as any required 5500 filing (e.g. 5500-EZ for a one-participant plan with assets in excess of $250,000), any required tax reporting (e.g. 1099-r in the event of a distribution or in-plan Roth conversion), mandatory plan updates and amendments, etc.4.

@Lydia S.I was assuring the agent they would recieve their commission.

@Colleen CuppThe STR does offer some unique tax planning opportunities so it’s not a bad idea to partner with a CPA for strategies and compliance.
