@Don JacksonUnless its specified otherwise in the lease:$100 to replace the furnace filters - This should be a preventative maintenance item charged to you to protect your furnace.

The attorney indicated there are foundation issues which are preventing them from listing it yet.Background - I am a general contractor and realtor.

So our priorities are as follows:1) Make sure everyone is safe2) Find out which tenant's are displaced and how we can help3) Repo out the damaged house/s and follow proper protocol to prevent mold (see article on my website)4) Doing contracting work for other folks 5) Collecting rents for month with a 10 day grace period and working one on one with dramatically impacted tenants (sounds like just 1 or 2 for us)

Tenant's General Responsibilities: Tenant, at Tenant's expense, must:pay any periodic, preventive, or additional extermination costs desired by Tenant, including treatment for bedbugs, unless otherwise required by law;"I would double check, but as long as you have been reasonably proactive to try and help with pest control, the tenant doesn't have the right to cancel the lease for pest issues. 

Also, you can only get a commercial mortgage under an LLC, preventing you from using FHA or Fannie Mae loans.
