Garage Expectations?
We have a detached garage on our property. Before our new tenants move in we are having a new roof and door put on the garage, it needs it. The new tenants have now requested we fix the cracked floor and put lighting in the garage as they will use this for storage. The floor is cracked, but the building is sound. So I am not convinced we need to repair it. It's an older garage and has no electricity running to it. Are these things we have to do for the tenant? I want to do the right thing, but both of these seem like really expensive fixes. Oh, and the tenant requested a lock on the garage door "for their stuff."
Any advice is appreciated.
