I can terminate on the anniversary with 60 days notice without penalty but the agreement stays in force as long as the resident stays in the property.

So after a few round of drinks, a familiar smell hits the air - and the San Diego relative's jaw drops in shock as he watches this greying group of what he "thought" were the upstanding leaders of today's industries pass around a joint.. listening to a story about someone's anniversary "camping trip" in Sedona..

I agree with Steven Picker it's likely a collection of hair and soap scum that has built up over time.

(landlord to do it)Take out the filter, wash it with soap, wipe it dry and put it backChange the heater filter (landlord to do it)Check exhaust from the dryer.

Remain on good terms show your landlord what you have done.Wash the kitchen cabinets with soap, lemon to eradicate the odor.

@Wayne Snell, congrats on your 1 year anniversary from the rate race too!  

If you put a lamp on the floor and put about five or six pie tins around it with water in it then squirt some dish soap in it and turn the light on.

Makes total sense for too much soap and water residue is not good for the carpet and could attract dirt in the future. 

I raise rents every year, on their anniversary. 

I've arranged for my PM to take a smaller percentage since I'm still the one handling bookings, doing small maintenance and keeping up with supply inventory.A better example is the service I get from my housekeeper at my new rental in Tennessee: she does the post-stay walk-through, cleans, and provides or maintains the inventory of supplies (she provides quite a bit: trash bags, toilet paper, basic toiletries, dishwashing soap, hand soap; the things I provide, she'll let me know when supplies are low, and I'll have new items shipped to her house).
