Article 1710.2 addresses two of the three issues that I asked about here... 1.

I read an article here on BP that this is not a good season to find renters.My concern is that another unit just came up at that property, and it may be difficult to rent if there's dog waste on the lawn here and there (she picks up the waste every 1-2 days).

I just wanted to share a quick off-topic experience with the rest of the board.I'm a very busy guy that doesn't take the time to put up my feet and read through the great articles posted in the BiggerPockets Blog.

I wrote an article for BP about this very issue a few weeks:http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/02/19/tenants-trash-unit/
