Now, each lease will be unique, so you can't apply this across all commercial leases, but commonly, LL is responsible for exterior and structural components, while tenant is reponsible for any interior items.How to best explain this: honestly, I would request the tenants have their own legal counsel review their respective leases.  

Quote from @Robbie Shiver: Robbie, Sounds like you have a unique property and a growing lifestyle!

I am not really a fan of the program because we have a very nice situation in our current home.Putting 20% down for a conventional loan is a steep task financially so I do not think that is an option plus I have been told by many of my friends with multiple MF homes to never use your own money to get into one.Then there is always using the equity we have built up in this current MF home we live in to purchase the next - I am not sure how that works but have done some research on home equity loans and believe that would be another option.Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Then your best bet is to add a second stair, make several duplexes or, if possible, see if there are any unique Code exceptions to allow a single stair to be the means of egress.
