IMO just clean it and give the tenant their deposit back (assuming everything else was fine) 1) The owner knows.2) Show the bill for repair3) It's a business, not a charity.

They are going to scream bloody murder... you'll need to ask them to leave 'in order to make long overdue improvements' to the place.If you slip, ask yourself if you started into the RE business to make money or to be a charity.

I will live off $150,000 or less and the rest goes to charities.

A goal of mine is to use real estate to help benefactors extend the timeline of their donations to their favorite charities by purchasing rental properties that will ultimately create a mini endowment for the charity of their choice.

A lot of times when we have tenants that are in a similar situation they NEED court documents to show they are in danger of loosing their property before the charity/Sec. 8/Gov. program will kick in.  

Next is retirement  along with the Charity we started  and stopping to smell the roses after all these years.While I enjoy music in most forms Rap is not one of them.. 

So get a Heloc on your rental and put the entire rent to the Heloc while still maintaining some liquidity.There are multiple threads over several years debating this subject.Donate the $1000 to a charity of your choice.

Tenants will take charity and kindness but when it comes to the end, it will be messy no matter what and your kindness will not be remembered or recognized.

I’m not sure where to post about this, but my dad collects bottles and cans to redeem them and then donates 100% of the proceeds to local charities.

That made the $7 million she left to charity after her death in 2010 at age 100 all the more confusing.
