Inherited tenant is a smoker

[Maritza McKinney]

We are inheriting a tent at who smokes in their unit. And it reeks of smoke. She is a great tent at and has lived there for 10 years. How do you handle the smoke damage and to the unit when/if she moves out? Do we charge her for the damages?

She maybe there another 10 years 

You May sell before she even leaves 
take care of the situation after she moves out 

No way to tell what it is like until she is gone,

All her things are gone and carpets have been removed 

Worrry about things you can control   Not things you can’t
