I think you should frame it in a way that explains the ongoing cost of property ownership (including whatever % you will be setting aside each year for capex), and that, without her, you would be collecting rent from a roommate to help cover those expenses.

I had to explain to the tenant who was using the cost of renovation as a reason to keep him in the unit that the longer I wait to renovate the more it will cost and I will lose out on approximately $600 a month in rent fees.   

The property is actually south of Boston but what you're explaining is probably applicable in this situation although it says that no one is living there at the moment.

An example of a more ubiquitous solution (in the US) could be like this video explains.

Nicely explain the situation to your neighbor. 

I found this property advertised on Craigslist for $10,000 and after reaching out to the nice gentlemen in south Florida that explained that he was helping a friend at a charity that received the property by donation, I thought this has to be legitimate…..

I would consult with several management companies and explain exactly what you did on the forum.

In regards to maintenance, when I bought my first property in this market I reached out to several trade businesses and explained my plan in the market and what my expectation would be if I used them, they were very appreciative as no one had ever done that, so as items come up I reach out to these places based on my need and they have been very responsive and eager to grow the relationship.  

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, but especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

Thanks for explaining this in clear language, it can get confusing trying to understand the reasons for an LLC.
