Local governments try to preserve that history so getting approval to alter buildings can be difficult at times. 

Welcome to BP @David Alter.

Virginia laws may alter this recommendation...you'll have to sort that out. 

I altered my version from a couple others that I have seen so feel free to alter it to whatever you like.Dear Ms.

Landlord shall not be obligated to clean, decorate, alter, repair, or otherwise improve the rental, either before or after the execution of this lease, unless agreed to in writing as part of this Agreement.

The storefront was actually altered from the original storefront during one ownership.

Here are a few important terms to include in your lease agreement:Rent amount and due date: Clearly state the amount of rent that is due each month and the date on which it is due.Security deposit: Include the amount of the security deposit and any conditions under which it can be returned or forfeited.Term of the lease: Specify the length of the lease, whether it's a month-to-month or a longer-term lease.Occupancy limits: Set a limit on the number of people allowed to live in the rental unit.Maintenance and repairs: Clearly outline the responsibilities of the landlord and tenant for maintaining and repairing the rental property.Subletting: Outline the conditions under which the tenant may sublet the property, if at all.Eviction clause: Include a clause outlining the process and grounds for eviction, in case it becomes necessary.Insurance: Clearly state what type of insurance is required and who is responsible for obtaining it.Pets: Outline any pet policy and any associated fees.Smoking: State whether smoking is allowed on the property or not.In addition to these standard terms, you may also want to include some non-standard terms that have been proven to reduce risk, hassle and property maintenance issues, such as:A clause that allows you to enter the property for inspections or repairs with proper noticeA clause that limits the tenant's ability to make alterations or improvements to the property without your permissionA clause that requires the tenant to maintain the property in a certain condition and return it in the same condition at the end of the leaseA clause that requires the tenant to pay for any damages caused by them or their guestsA clause that allows you to terminate the lease if the tenant violates any of the terms of the lease agreement.

The County and State are doing a lot of infrastructure work on the roads to prepare for the construction, which looks like it's really going to happen.I think the bigger issue in Wisconsin right now is how the political climate will alter things.

I know the area extremely well as I built out spreadsheets for over a month on most potential Florida markets factoring in any significant factor that alters returns. 

It was my understanding that typical property valuation in the Reno Sparks area involves property assessments every 5 years and sometimes longer and that the sale of a property does not immediately alter the assessed value; is this accurate?
