That should be spelled out on the certificate of insurance they present you before they step on the property to do any work. 

This should all be spelled out in your partnership agreement though.

The state statutes, often found online, and the written lease, I hope you have one, that you took over at the property acquisition clearly spell out what you can do. 

Unless there is a specific provision spelled out in your property management agreement about your rights if they fail to perform the inspections, I would not waste time pursuing it.

I will make sure everything is spelled out in the Operating Agreement.

The lease generally states we are responsible for repairs with nothing else spelled out and we have been allowed to write off the interest and taxes every year. 

@Ken Rubin if it isn't spelled out in your lease then it is much shorter than that.

Also, you said $1000/mo for 12 months and then “$600/mo until it’s paid off”.....is it spelled out how many months that is?

That would dictate where you should be looking.If you spell out what cash on cash return you are looking to achieve and your price range is, you might get more precise answers from fellow BP members

If you want to be safe, spell it out in your lease where is says appliances included, "None", or whichever ones you want to include.
