Hi Karina,In general it must be a complete and functional home that does not have any health or safety issues.Specific to you, and this property:It's too late to worry about it, you're under contract. 

The reason this trend tends to happen, from what I've seen, is because there is massive industry (jobs) in LA, and in the greater CV area there outstanding schools, safety, weather, and general quality of life.The SFV, however, has neither incredible industry/jobs nor incredible safety/schools/weather/QoL.

Under this proposal, the tenant can deduct TWO HUNDRED dollars even though you made a timely repair of a minor item that does not affect health or safety."

Atlanta has rules and regulations specifying minimum construction, design, and maintenance standards for buildings, including regulations on habitability, health, and safety.

It's not that I don't want to call or email everyone...it's just that there are so many hours in the day and you have to prioritize.  

It definitely won't make the same kind of money I make in oil and gas initially, but at this point I really want to prioritize quality of life and fostering lasting relationships.

I just can't believe I'm debating with MY REALTOR over safety issues.

I've been pulled over for safety checks and always been treated politely and professionally. 

Various feedback I'm getting this morning makes me think we need to prioritize finding the right team to work with.

This is going to cause you A LOT of problems not only with tenants, but with your safety.
