Are you sure your licensed contractor knows the current smoke and CO detector laws for your area.

Seller's also have to pay an attorney/title company to close, complete a smoke cert, recording costs etc. 

I just had one last week, it was a broken smoke detector. 40 bux.Potential for Difficult Tenants JUST like cash tenants, screening is the key.Property Damage Issues JUST like cash tenants, screening is the key.Harder to Evict Difficult Tenants NO it's not, in OH anyway.Full-Paying Tenants May Turn Away NOT sure what this means?

With the lower tenants smoking downstairs, and the smell of their smoke wafting into the upstairs, we are concerned that smoke smell will turn some potential renters away.I know we need to honor the lease that the tenants were under before we bought the property. 

***There are smoke detectors and a portable fire extinguisher in the retail unit. 

@Julie McCoy, @Lucas CarlI've actually been leaning towards the Smokes just because it's only 3-4 hours away from me. 

Until I quit smoking.

After not getting responses to schedule an inspection, I smelled smoke outside the door and went in to investigate.

That's a smoking $p/sq ft, for CA let alone in Calabasas.

If there’s an electrical issue, it’s typically up to the landlord to fix it.Heating and Cooling Systems: The landlord is responsible for maintaining and repairing any installed heating and cooling systems.Appliances: If the property comes with appliances, the landlord is responsible for repairing them if they break down.Safety Repairs: This includes things like smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and any other safety equipment the property might have.Remember, these responsibilities can sometimes vary based on the terms of your lease agreement, so it’s always a good idea to clarify these points with your tenants.
