Put language in your lease about use of the screen for all fires.I always made it the tenant's responsibility to have the chimney cleaned at least once per year for the built in fireplaces and twice per year for the store bought types as they have smaller chimney piping.  

If they're responsive and know how to save you $ on taxes sometimes the premium price pays for itself.   

@Jason Seay  We have in our lease that all parties are responsible for the total rent. 

It’s our responsibility to protect each other from harm and uphold the values that build trust and success.Unethical practices not only hurt individual clients but damage the reputation of our entire industry.

Thank you all for great responses.

You’re online listing doesn’t need to be a comprehensive photo shoot of every single nook and cranny of your home  

Make sure whoever you put in there is financially responsible and I'd do a 6 month or month to month explaining in summer rates will increase.Keep us posted. 

Here's a revised response with a more structured format:---Hey JeffIt sounds like you’ve got a solid deal in the works, but I totally understand your concerns about the 5-year seller carry.

I did a quick google search yesterday trying to find one in my area and got a lot of corporate type responses eg fill out this form and check the website etc.

Thank you for the informative responses!
