But larger repair items such as appliances and mechanical, plumbing, electrical, roof windows doors etc should still fall under the landlord's responsibility.

I called the plumbing company and kindly negotiated 2 hours off the bill, bringing it down to $787.

If you are really worried about liability, get a bunch of insurance policies like an extra umbrella or beefed-up property insurance. 

My properties are insured.

I am not as familiar with your area land wise although I suspect there are developments of lots there that do go.. title insurance is the other issue..

If you want insurance bookings, those always require a showing beforehand.

As an investment property owner, this means less maintenance and fewer unexpected expenses from storm related damage, often resulting in more affordable insurance premiums, less wear & tear on mechanical equipment, roofing materials or exterior surfaces.

Your current insurance provider should offer it.

There is no way these are licensed and insured contractors.
