Mold Inspection Request

Bottom line: If you keep it under 60% its just not enough for mold to grow.You are in Sad Diego, that's a lot dryer than Milwaukee (we run a dehumidifier in most basements) so if you find more than 60% you definitely need to look where the moisture comes from!

I recommend being clear about what you include and what you exclude, and having multiple cleaners you can call to help with turnovers, and putting all mattresses in moisture and bug-proof mattress bags.

I did some research and found that having the fan running constantly will pick up moisture from the condensate pan and put it back in the living space, cause high humidity.

Rental Management: Increasing Rent
21 November 2023 | 9 replies
1. i look up similar units for rent and prefer to keep mine a little under market, to entice them to stay. turnovers can be expensive. 2. if the woman is still on the lease and the kids are all over 18, i wouldn't worry, i would just be sure to continue doing annual (or maybe even more frequent) "checks for deferred maintenance / furnace filter changes" to keep an eye on the place. she's still legally on the hook for rent and the kids are legal adults. if the bong was in the shed, be happy it wasn't in the house mid-use. being worried that one person moved out and is still on the lease (but isn't trying to get off of it), and that people might be smoking weed outside, doesn't justify a rent increase.. you could just a) contact the mom and ask her if she is still living in the unit, and if she's not, let her know that since she is still on the lease she is still responsible for the unit and you just wanted to make her aware of that and ensure that she feels the property is in good hands, and gently remind her that smoking is not permitted inside. i wouldn't call the shed 'inside' though. if your lease didn't clarify, then they didn't do anything wrong.
