They need to know where to pay next month's rent and who to call if there is a maintenance issue.

There are timing issues, wording issues, etc. 

The stove is going to be important to tenants and it is a quality of life issue.

I cannot refinance my house because of deed and mortgage issues.

I have a issue though....
