It is completely within their rights, legally under the ADA, to furnish that letter after they move in or get a dog even (if they went and got a new one months into living there, for example).

As you saw from the post I just posted we just bout a da** good deal and now its time for the Reno-s :). 

What is the layout, i.e. will ADA require an elevator?  

@Jeff Rabinowitz :-) Just posted the ad as written.

It is much more difficult getting the zoning approved to ad a unit as opposed to reducing one.

We had to put in ADA bathrooms in some areas as well as a sprinkler system (This was expensive. almost 10K cost)3.

Am I open to any ADA liability if there isn't ramp access to the rental?

There would need to be repairs made to the interior such as:DrywallCeilingRemoval of a shower (see below)FloorsThere are also some permitting issues that would need to be corrected such as:Ramp to comply with ADA guidelines2 handicap parking spaces to comply with ADA guidelines1 of the handicap parking spaces needs to accommodate a handicap vanA landing would need to be built at the back door, currently there are only concrete stairs leading up to itRemoval of the shower (it was not permitted)Finally, I will need to pave part of the parking lot to comply with the handicap parking; right now the parking lot is mostly gravel though there is some (very little) pavement.I was surprised to find that it is in an AE flood zone, but luckily the BFE is 11 and the current elevation is 12.
