Tenant will be held responsible for smoke related damages and/or painting, deodorizing, vent cleaning, etc. to eradicate the damage or smell.

Have any of you successfully eradicated cockroaches?

There are other BP forum threads about eradicating ants.  

Find out what their reservation is, and write your page, the ad is pointing them to, to eradicate that reservation.Your website is in itself a nurturing campaign, where traffic that doesn't know you at all, grows into trusting you the more they read and the deeper they dive in.

BB is similar - yes STR are popular, yes the town is somewhat friendlier, but after doing research, including talking to a couple guys I met on this site, again I could not find a PM that was lower than 30-35% monthly fees, which eradicated all profit.

He still left behind a significant fruit fly and roach infestation that took me a month to eradicate! 

It's always good to pad your budget by 20% for unexpected things.... you find asbestos, or as you start demo you find there is more termite damage or pest problems that have been eradicated but left residual damage, etc... 

.; cash for keys)--but again, you need to follow your local laws on this topic...but, it's worth studying up on whether there are legal ways of getting a tenant to leave other than the full eviction process (I suggest that ALL landlords familiarize themselves with this, even if they've never had an issue with a tenant).Once the tenant is out, rehab the property (which may include a deep clean or a more in-depth remodel), bring in the pest control guys to eradicate the roach problem, and try to bring the property up to a level that will attract responsible, reliable tenants who won't cause this type of problem again.Good luck out there!

Other than that it was messes or sneaking in pets and leaving me fleas to get eradicated.

Was hoping for an easier solution.We plan on selling the property for $600-$650/sf so any solution that doesn't completely eradicate the smell will not be sufficient.Its a shame though the current hardwoods have great character and are in good shape aside from the smell.
