Who have they hired to inspect our streets and water system?

Well one red flag is a property with no homestead exemption.
They know what's a rental and what's not.

Why not let the free market work? It's 2016, if you want to know about a property or complex you can look it up or get off your arse and see if it's worth renting or not.

That's not 100% true, you just exempt your highest property, doesn't mean you rent out the other.

I live in town that started a rental inspection program a few years ago. I had to update electrical outlets to GFI outlets in the kitchen and baths. They require a exhaust fan or window in each bath. I had to install a fan. Smoke detectors in all bedrooms. The steps on the back deck did not have a hand rail. Bunch of little shite that adds up.

True but I said it was a red flag.

In the 1800s, people packed their shite in a wagon and spent weeks heading west.
Now, we can't expect them to take 15 minutes to check out a property or move down the street if it becomes problematic.

Did you read that pricing structure? $30-$50 for an inspection
Ha!!!!
You are not getting shite for that. 15 minutes of some guy making $15/hr to maybe take a few pics and mark some check boxes.

Do you really believe the local government can keep a registry of all the rentals on the Internet in Nola? I could claim it on my taxes in 2015 and not in 2016 and they wouldn't know.

My renters can't get the electric and water turned on in their name without a copy of the City's rental inspection certificate. The inspection certificate is valid for 2 years.

Such ignorance and lack of reality. Times like this is when it's needed. I personally know two families living in an uncomfortable place because their options after the flood are slim.
