The states we operate in do not like us charging the security deposit for cleaning we do ourselves, so when I walk in and it's beyond what I consider normal, I hire out to a company that charges about $100 for normal cleaning, then separates the "Excessive cleaning" on the bill, adding whatever additional time it took and why, like oven cleaning, excessive grease, extra attention in the bathrooms like dirty shower stall, toilet stain removal, etc.  

Let's face it, James, the value you are getting here is far in excess of whatever silly thing that membership costs!

As long as the Deeds were recorded before the lawsuit and or Judgement.SO, isolate RISK, balance equity to $zero$,I have been advised to make sure you fund the LLC properly in the beginning, NEVER co mingle personal expenses, and regularly sweep excess cash out ( ie. through an employment agreement or other DOCUMENTED business agreement like a lease back or whatever).Also remember that you are liable personally for anything you personally do, LLC business or not.

Lessor reserves the rite to charge for heat use in excess of historical building averages.

Seems pretty reasonable (as long as it's not excessive to the point of being suspicious).
