Reimbursement for blinds??

[Thomas Peddle]

My property does not have blinds on windows and ceiling skylights. Tenant had two walkthroughs of the property, conducted a move in checklist without mentioning the lack of blinds as an issue, and signed the lease (annual). The tenant is now asking me to reimburse for expensive blinds, purchased without consulting me. I am pushing back, willing to credit for a nominal amount per blind. I’d appreciate your suggestions on how to handle the situation.

@Thomas Peddle INSANITY ! You have no obligation whatsoever to give the tenant one penny toward those blinds. He took it upon himself to buy that stuff , that is not your problem . Do NOT give this idiot a dime instead remind him he signed the lease he agreed to the current condItIon he did a walkthrough and it’s his responsibility to decorate using his money .
