I am looking for connections in various counties in Florida (Orange, Seminole, Hernando, Titusville, and Bay counties at the moment)-mortgage brokers, inspectors, title companies, contractors-any help is so appreciated! 

If so then you need to find a home inspector who can and will pressurize the system to test that there are no leaks.

By purchasing such an addition, you have no 3rd party guarantees (building inspector sign offs) that the property was built to current code, whether for electrical, structural, or plumbing.

If you're paying the guy $200,000, make 20k or 40k dependent on final approval from you.Then get yourself an inspector that is one of those nit picky types of people and have them go through the whole house and pick it apart.

Here I would get a notice from the city/inspector, typically in the mail, that I, the owner, need to correct the xyz code violation(s) within x days.

I have talked to a lead inspector and plan to attend lead abatement classes before doing work in order to rent.

Inspectors seem to make about $300 for perhaps three hours of work (site inspection plus report prep), with little overhead other than a vehicle and laptop/printer, so not bad once you get yourself trained and established.Property management will be a growth business as the U.S. continues its evolution to a renter society.

I think a lot of rehabbers don't realize that nearly every imperfection that they "believe" will go unnoticed will be exposed once the buyers home inspector inspects the property.

I have been told by health inspectors there's nothing I can do.

I am working with the county inspector as well.
