The eviction lawsuit is a permanent mark on her background and probably prevents her from being able to rent anywhere decent ever again...I would consider a couple of backup plans if she refuses, like getting a lease in place...do some more research on squatters and squatters rights in Ohio...its horrifying, but valuable to understand the process.How long has she lived in the home before the sale?

Also my last post on this thread.The intention of Sec 280A is to prevent deduction of personal expenses by reframing them as rental expenses, in a specific situation.

Eviction moratorium prevented me from taking any action at all. 

If you delay the payday, you could still conceivably do a tax deferred exchange down the line, but again, that can put pressure on you in some markets that have tight inventory...this only delays the taxes, it doesn't prevent you from paying them.

The landlord will continue to keep the home in good working order and abide by the terms in the lease throughout the length of your tenancy.The tenant (You) is responsible for keeping the home in good condition by practicing good housekeeping habits, including to prevent leaks, mold growth, rodents, and pests, treating the property with care to avoid preventable damage or maintenance needs, reporting maintenance issues in a timely manner, paying rent when it is due, and abiding by the terms of the lease throughout the length of your tenancy.MaintenancePlease call or email us promptly with any maintenance requests (do not text).

Their mandate is to prevent evictions. 99% of the tenants taken to the board by landlords are welfare or low income, 99% of the tenants that take their landlord to the board are welfare or low income.

I'm going to email all 3 of them about the smoke alarms (and the furnace filter, because that was completely clogged today when I checked) and quote from the lease, issuing a formal warning, and will replace the alarms with 10 year batteries as soon as they arrive.  

This prevents one from having to liquidate properties if for some reason it goes vacant and can't be rerented in a reasonable amount of time.

Your 30k profit would show up on the hud, on the buyers side, as a "___fee" some buyers might not like to see that.Simultaneous close would prevent that.
