Top apartment gets really hot

Last year the tenants in the top floor of my Multi family home had a lot of trouble with the heat. It was like they were living in a sauna. There's no central air, they just have window AC's.

Can someone please give me recommendations as to what I should do? Should I have someone cut a hole in my roof to add an Attic fan?

What kind of attic you have? and is your insulation proper?

I finished a attic that was unbearable in the summer, and before we finished, we sprayfoamed the roof the deck and it made a huge difference. The original fiberglass were not doing its job.
