The main thing is not to run foul of neighbors, HOA or local laws.

In your case he actually bought the house, so no harm no foul, other than you must really not like your in-law 😂

I thought we'd have to paint it, but it was all gunk from the dogs.Thanks - I do have degreaser on order to help with the cleaning and odor.

Remember that little dogs are just as likely to urinate indoors and cats create an odor that is extremely difficult to remove.5.

In my agreement, we say that the fee is for the right to have animals on the property and is not a deposit to cover for damages.You are unlikely to get the odor out so replacement is the best option.

in our new construction we do NOT provide refer or washer dryer.. supply chain is so fouled up.. and that way we dont have to warranty them and sure enough they get dinged then we have to replace them.. so NO never provide refer or washer dryer in our new construction many do but we wont. 

I charge a $600 per pet deposit which is fully refundable if there's no pet odor or damage.

We tore everything out, painted it with oil-based primer, and the odor went away. 

Steam cleaned it probably 50 times couldn't get rid of the odor.

No harm no foul Jim.
