Hey fellow Bp members. I’m fairly new to the self-managing/property management business and certainly new to dealing with section 8 tenants.

I have a potential section 8 tenant who has inquired about one of my properties and they are in their opinion “disgusted” with the way the carpet looks however up until this point in my efforts of marketing the property I have not had one complaint concerning the carpet.

That being said she has requested to rip out the carpet, in turn to replace the carpet with hardwood floors. 

Just would like to know would this be smart on my behalf(liability)protection wise? 

Also what could I be getting myself into that I’m not thinking of or simply bypassing here..

Who is expected to pay for this ordeal in this type of situation..and for what exactly?

Or am I overthinking..

Thank you all!
