NEW Tenant complaining about smoke smell after 1 month....
Hello all,
Looking for some advise here.
New tenant has been in the SFR for a month and just started complaining about a smoke smell that wont go away. She says she has asthma now. She has been complaining for a few minor things already and I've been more than accommodating.
The detached SFR used to have a tenant that smoked more than a year an a half ago, since then I've had another tenant live in the unit with no complaints (we made sure after the smoker moved out to clean and paint the entire house to cover the smell).
Should I let this new tenant go under a 'Happy clause'?
Should I pay for a commercial ozone odor eliminator out of pocket?
Anything else?
She complained to me she heard voices in the house and was wondering if someone died...so I wouldn't be surprised if she wants to move out due to being afraid the house is possessed.....Saying this because I wouldnt have an issue paying for the ozone rental but dont want to do it if she will end up moving out anyways...
