I'm not saying this was the correct thing to do, but renovating on a budget, we decided to spend the money to update all of the outlets, since that is where people are going to be sapping high electricity from (space heaters, hair dryers, etc.).

ahhhh @Martin Caldwell that's a nice affirmation for what you already own.

I realize her argument will be the smoking takes place outside but my issue with that is the smoke and its odor can be brought in through clothing, hair and if the windows of the building are opened.

I swear, I was pulling out my hair for months trying to figure out why the electric bill was so damn high.  

For instance, hardwood floors are more easily damaged, and there is hair in the hinter corners of the residence; in the summer, flea treatment is required. 

@Jonathan Klemm List is going to be at 250 and it's being used as a hair salon which has been there for 6 years I believe.

@Andrew Sprague off-market deals are great, sometimes, but they almost always come with a bit of hair on them.
