Having no experience as either a renter or landlord, I would appreciate
knowing what you would expect if you were looking to rent an unfurnished
house.

* Drapes?
* Stove?
* Microwave?
* Dishwasher?
* Fridge?
* Washer & dryer?
* Washer and dryer hookups only?
* Anything else?

I'd also appreciate knowing if you would expect to do any of these yourself.
* Change air filters? *Buy them?
* Maintain salt level in water softener? *Buy the salt?
* Cut the grass?
* What other maintenance or repair?

Thanks for your time

First thing, check the law.

Good idea.

Generally (but YMMV) in the US you can't
rent without a certificate of occupancy and that normally specifies a
working kitchen.

No, a 'fridge is not usually necessary to get a CO. Stove, yes.

There may be other requirements in your locality
specific to rentals.

Yes.
