Wanted to check and see if anyone was using the Rheem Gladiator water heater with leak detection vs a standard Rheem 50 gallon tall? 

And while there are many, many ways to get ripped off, there are very few chances of ever detecting them until it's too late.

Their are mitigation tactics including minimum age for bookings, screening for .edu addresses, noise detection devices etc.

Even though the tenants are responsible to pay for the water, I find it wasteful for them to pay such a high amount.I advised the tenants and forwarded the letter to them so they are aware and to inform me of any leaks or water issues immediately.I’m wondering though, since it’s a townhome, whether the city or the association are responsible for detecting any leaks outside of the home.I’m probably answering my own question here and going to look into the townhome docs, but would like any additional advice from the sound minds on this forum.

I need help with my detective work!

I would not pass on inspection, especially at the suggestion of a seller or his/her agent unless you are skilled at detecting issues or have a team that could do so and you are willing to take the risk.

No lead detected.

You should have a due diligence "out" in your contact if the results of the phase 2 detect contamination.  

Also most attics are finished as a "hot roof" - insulated tight against the sheeting, but often not well done, rather warm in the summer, also shortening the life of the shingles, making roof leaks hard to detect and costly to repair.None of these issues apply on a real 3 unit, which was built this way.

@Manik ZamanNew construction guaranteed to need passive smoke detection system and evacuation warning.Existing most likely required in some form or another.
