@Justin EggeFirst, I want to acknowledge your growth as an investor. 

And we should acknowledge that the 60K gap is a year’s salary or more for one of the people in a dual earner household, let alone for a single nurse or teacher trying to invest in a starter home.

At first, Lowes didn't want to acknowledge that it was their fault and was trying to stick us for the entire amount.

This way you also get a signed acknowledgment that it was received, if that is the case, or, as @Theresa Harris stated, keep it, UNOPENED in your Tenant file.

I am interpreting that as you stating there is NOT a "NO PETS" policy mentioned, or any acknowledgment that a dog would be allowed.If there is NOT a clear policy, there is nothing to prevent the Tenant from getting a dog.

I just realized I never responded or acknowledged. 

Is their a way I can word something in the lease renewal acknowledging that there are water issues but since this is not a living area, some water is possible?

With the property being delivered vacant, does this family friend need to sign/fill/acknowledge that she is leaving voluntarily so that I can begin charging fair market value for their unit?

I acknowledge that laws can change and have changed quite a bit in recent years, and that I should also consider an investment as working for MTR or LTR. 

The tenant acknowledges that they plan to use the Property for the purpose of helping teenagers who are suffering from drug abuse integrate into society.
