I admit that since I’m just getting started, I don’t want to get overwhelmed by numerous tenants.

I have had some disagreements with @Curt Smith on different threads, however, on this one, I think he gave some good direction and explanations of lease options.  

Anyone have a simple explanation for what this refers to?

That's the only explanation I can think of. :)Read this forum, see who answers questions and how, and contact those who you like.

Sometimes it's ambiguous, but even then, why should I bother with the company that has numerous unresolved lawsuits, versus another company that is virtually the same but has none.

Have encountered this issue numerous times in my line of work, Honeywell makes a system called the Redlink.
