common items that tenants steal , and possible solutions to them.

[Bernard B.]

Good afternoon BP nation, 

     I always seem to have common items stolen from every rental unit when tenants move out. I tend to see stolen light bulbs, smoke detectors, hydraulic door closers (yes), shower curtains and shower curtain rods, toilet paper spindles, medicine cabinet glass/wood shelves, window blinds, they also tend to break ceiling fans. I solved a few of these issues, but not all. I continue to try and make my units as tenant proof as possible. Please let me know, your thoughts. ( I apologize in advance if this topic has been covered already).

They can have all that junk because I’ll be keeping their deposit !
