Not needed if buying for what is owed plus arrears.I've been a landlord for a while and I don't allow smokers or growers of any kind no matter the higher rent.

During the sale, she agreed to a lease.The thing is she's a smoker and I'll ask the people downstairs not to smoke inside.The lease agreement as not yet been signed.Current state of mind : I'll be asking her not to smoke inside.Have you ever lived a similar situation?

My other criteria are non smoker, no cats, dogs with fee, and income 3 times rental, etc.If 600 ish is unreasonable, what numbers do ya'll use?

One thing that drove us both crazy was smokers.

On one hand, the unit is coming off being occupied by smokers, so its not a taj mahal, on the other hand, that level of interest at the price 1 month away from it being available makes me think there's room for an increase.I was thinking about messaging each person and telling them I've had an overwhelming response and will be doing 850 instead of 825.

Some of the things I would like to include. keeping in mind the property is in California.I would rather not rent to smokers but If I must could I charge a smokers fee?

My last tenant was a smoker unbeknownst to me, and a lot of the smell dissipated when I cleaned a large sliding glass door with a mirror finish.

I might just coordinate my own and throw a grilled cheese party. 

Even when you just over see the property you need to keep stocked on tp, paper towels, salt, pepper, spices, cleaning up the grill, etc.

But here's you, with the part on backorder, the tenant frying up a mess of pancakes on a propane camping burner in the living room and barbecuing chicken nuggets on skewers over a makeshift charcoal grill in the bathroom sink (with the vent fan on, of course).So get that range changed tomorrow with a new or used range without a glass top.
