@Jim GoebelThank you very much for sharing your perspective, your thoughts are very useful for me, I have a little break from managing everyday issues, so I was thinking to make some decisions on who is responsible for  working fire detectors, what company to hire to check detectors and other safety issues, I am going to sign an addendum/reminder that people would not use basements as a bedroom if there are no 2 exits.
