How do you handle existing 'Non-Compliance'?
--Excellent question
Does the buyer have to apply to each CDD to find out if the home they want (new or pre-owned) is in compliance?
--Deed restrictions can and do vary. A home must meet the restrictions of the CDD where it is located.
Will all the CDD's issue a 'certification' that a home is 'in compliance' with all their regulations before you buy it?
--No
Should I put a contingency in my offers/contracts that requires the Owner/Seller/Realtor to take care of it?
--That is a great idea. I've not heard of anyone doing that, but you could be starting something big.
I've seen this problem reported many times but never any solutions.
-- You may have the beginnings of a solution.
