I would also highly encourage checking into the regulations of the municipality and of the condo association/HOA where you'll be renting this.

You don't want to get stuck out of pocket for the difference if you have a 10yr old roof, with a 20yr life expectancy, that requires replacement due to hail or wind damage.I believe Oklahoma also has separate deductibles strictly for wind/hail, but it's been a while since I handled claims out there.

The city of San Jose has a very strict rental ordinance.

If it's only subject to the MN rules, I haven't seen any stringent regulations on late fees, but personally, I would avoid charging them unless absolutely necessary.

Some jurisdictions are getting really strict about not pulling permits.

A good local attorney is usually the most preferable since they're more familiar with the local market and regulations.

In any case, I found the following after she moved out:- Smoke/animal smell throughout the unit (she was a smoker and smoking in the unit was strictly prohibited and dog was allowed per the lease)- Carpet with cigarette burns and soaking wet at the time of removal (no telling how long its been like this)- Rear window has a broken pane (still functional as it is a double pane, but needs to be replaced regardless)- Holes in drywall- Replaced bedroom doorknob with deadbolt (because her middle school son was stealing cigarettes lol)- Backyard full of metal/wood fragments and general rubbish including shoes, a knife, batteries, fishing reels etc.
