You can call your local code enforcement person and request they inspect your home for code violations, but it's gonna really tick off your landlord if they cite him for a bunch of violations. Call City Hall, that's where their office should be located.
They do not come out and routinely inspect buildings without first being requested to, in my experience.

somebody suggested you. The investigator in all danger thinks the placement is almost like an extra on condo. you ought to have helps pulled by applying approved electricians and plumbers in case you probably did any wiring or put in any plumbing furniture. that's a code requirement. If the storage is seen a mattress room, it has to have 2 exits. The investigators can circulate in, (you ought to have enable him in) and take pictures. What you ought to do is talk to the development inspector and notice what that's that he needs completed. you're able to ought to have an electrician/plumber are available in and pull the enable and do an inspection. The investigator won't be able to do something if the wiring/plumbing become already there. somebody had to have suggested you, consistent with danger a neighbor. do away with the beds until the inspection is over, do no longer even point out human beings sleep there. in case you probably did no longer deploy a heating gadget, or use an area heater in basic terms while necessary, get it out for now. the less he's conscious the greater beneficial. yet, the electrical powered and plumbing is a code violation. The development inspector ought to have you ever touch somebody to tug the helps and he will come over to examine. you will no longer have any issues considering which you probably did no longer upload a room on on your place. If he maintains to be a dick, you may ***** to the state's inspector. He ought to easily be following the regulation, no longer his own cranky opinion.

You crack me up!
There is no way Detroit requires annual inspections of rental units, please.
The only way you would get an inspector is if you file a complaint. Even then I wish you luck as Detroit is notorious for ignoring it's citizens and responsibilities.
