These require a properly sized escape window (minimum 5.7 square feet of openable window, 5.0 if your at grade) a smoke detector in the bedroom, a smoke detector outside of the bedroom within 15 feet of the bedroom door, possibly a carbon monoxide detector outside the bedroom (same rule as smoke detector that is outside the bedroom).  

Ensure carbon monoxide detector is accounted for and has a working battery.

Also, every lawyer and judge in Wisconsin has seen them a thousand times, so it makes it easy for them and you don't have to worry if your lease provisions are in compliance with federal and state law.I recommend the version in letter size (not legal size) and carbon copy.For background check I recommend a online service like Mysmartmove.com or Cozy.com - they are free to you, super convinient and comprehensive.

You also need an egress window or door of sufficient size, a smoke detector and a carbon monoxide detector (if you have gas heat/appliances).

Many of these items are trivial to fix such as missing smoke/Carbon monoxide detector, water heater not properly strapped, etc. 

I did a room addition in CA and the building and planning department called out retrofitting the original house for earthquake and also installing hard wire smoke and carbon monoxide detectors throughout the house. 

Please note that specific information such as the property address and names of those directly or indirectly involved in this particular real estate transaction were intentionally omitted to maintain confidentiality given delicate subject matter of/affecting health, life and safety.IntroductionHaving provided carbon monoxide (CO) testing of gas utilization equipment for well over ten years during the 1980's and 1990's in addition to having learned about the production, mitigation, prevention, testing, and harmful effects of elevated levels of carbon monoxide due to incomplete combustion of natural gas utilization equipment from a recognized leader/foremost authority on carbon monoxide testing in the industry by the name of Jim Davis—senior carbon monoxide/combustion trainer and consultant for the National Comfort Institute (NCI), who began traveling the country during the 80's and 90's conducting carbon monoxide training seminars for building and HVAC contractors, building inspectors, utility companies and virtually anyone interested in learning about carbon monoxide testing and proven methods to mitigate and prevent gas utilization equipment from producing elevated levels of carbon monoxide in flue gas known to cause CO poisoning—has without a doubt proven invaluable in heightening my awareness of conditions conducive to/indicative of incomplete combustion known to result in elevated/unsafe levels of CO in flue gas.

Other then that, most of the time you’ll just need the Carbon/smoke detectors and fire extinguisher.

The media behavior over all of this is simultaneously laughable and reprehensible.How many people didn’t die from carbon emissions pollution in China since the factories have been shuttered? 

It came out to around $125 / month cash flow, not GREAT, but for a first property it's a base hit and gets me in the game.HOWEVER, here are the main issues that came up from the inspection that really concern me:Horizontal cracks in the poured concrete basement foundation on the back and left side of the house with what looks like attempts to patch it with stucco in the pastKnob and Tube wiring throughout the entire house (concerned about getting insurance)Galvanized piping for majority of water supply lines (low water pressure throughout house)Leaking roof from chimney (need to install cricket) and fix upstairs unit wallsOne of the furnace flues is completely deteriorated and needs replaced, currently releasing some levels of carbon monoxide into basementOne of the water heaters is from 1992Some water intrusion damage in main electrical panel and one of the breaker panel is a Pushmatic styleThese are what I conclude as the big ticket items.
