If you want to build a
new home, there are things you need to know before you begin. Learn about
construction standards and about buying land, so you know your rights.
 MPS Supplementing Model
Building Codes
The Minimum Property Standards (MPS) establish certain minimum standards for
buildings constructed under HUD housing programs. This includes new
single-family homes, multi-family housing and healthcare-type facilities.

I wrote on the topic, “Safety In Vacant
Homes” recently, but did not touch on what to look for when first viewing a
home that had been supposedly vacated.
First, it is very important to know that foreclosed, vacant homes
account for a very large percentage of the homes that are on the market today.
If you work with investors and preview the properties
before you take your client for a look,
please think about what to do when you arrive for the first time. |

Lately, I have been working with a lot of Attorneys. Not because of something that I did, but because something I havebeendoing. Ok. It doesn't make a lot of sense yet, but just wait. The latest Court dealing was with a property owner and his tenant. The property in question is a gas station in Atlanta. I was retained by the owner over three years ago to perform periodic inspections or assessments of the property to determine if the tenant had been performing required maintenance as per the Lease Agreement. |
