Clearly, this is normal wear and tear for such a dated setup and in such a vulnerable location.

But if there is already a tenant, whose lease expiration date will not leave enough time to renovate before the hard money is due, Can any thing be done to overcome this?

Has some general basics but is not up to date and asset specific enough. it's more of a primer.Depends on what you want the book for.

There will be some required documents, their title search, setting a closing date, etc. 

I reviewed the lease and, other than stating the start and end dates, is silent on any required notice of non-renewal.

Give them written notice of the lease violations and demand they vacate no later than [DATE].

Tenant does not want to pay utility charges till statement shows her date of occupancy.
