Smokers are not a protected class.

It's difficult to retain tenants in those units as people do like to easily pop outside for a brief while, grill, etc.

I would certainly grill their agent and see if he/she tells you.  

One unit has a family with smokers, the other family seems to be voluntarily-smoke free. 

Call Zach Robbins attorney with Winthrop and Weinstine for help with syndicationCall Todd Grill for help with IRA's.

As for the smoker use the same cleaning solution on the carpets wash the walls down with tsp you may have to replace the curtains but that smell is easier to get out than what you've been dealing with. 

Start negotiating.Smokers can't smell their own smoke as well as non-smokers can.

Whether or not you have a car, it's great when you don't show up when you say you are going to.We love smokers, but we especially love it when you throw your cigarette butts everywhere.

Big negative for the house is that the current owner, a retired gentleman who is a smoker, has therefore made it smell like an ash tray (was painted in the last few years, so no terrible stains) and therefore will get rid of carpet and replace with laminate, and seal and paint throughout.

All I did was send a text saying it wasn't acceptable (especially because on the application they said they were non-smokers).
