Smoking Weed in Rental
I have tenants leaving at the end of March,they are not being very cooperative with me showing the property. Friday I had a 6:00 showing, tenant shows up at 6:15, removes her dogs and kids so I can show the home. We walk in through the garage that she left open and could have gotten a contact high from the smell, like she took a big hit and blew it in through the house right before she left. Thankfully the person I was showing the house to has a great sense of humor and we all joked about it the whole showing (hopefully signing a lease this week!), but my question is, what do other landlords do in this situation? I have a clear “no smoking”on the property in the lease. What should I add to the next lease so I have a clear penalty for smoking? Like hotels have a $250 fine? Curious what others do!
