I`m looking at purchasing a single detached with a sloping grade downward from the front of the house to the back. This means that the basement walks out to ground level and the main level is about 12 feet higher up. Main floor has sliders at the back that look out into the back yard, but no deck has ever been attached there. This means that when the sliders are opened, you could fall out of the house into the back yard, 12 feet down.
If I was to put an RTO tenant in there, what are my liabilities for this admittedly less-than-safe issue? Aside from forking out $8000 to put a deck on there, is there any other solution to fix this set up?
