You can look into a smoke outside only policy, but it is hard to make a leopard change their spots (if they have been smoking inside for years, good luck changing the behavior)...If you want to go no smoking at all,  you could just give notice with month to month or not renew when the lease ends, but the inside smokers can create quite a lot of work on the turnovers so you have all that work now (when closing taps your cash) and an early vacancy plus losing a good payer...Maybe get inside and assess the unit and behavior some and consider if it workable another year or more (who knows they could stay years) or if you need too make a change.

I will be filing a right of redemption this week and having them removed.. every day they stay and dont pay rent you loose money.. you cannot change peoples habits, behavior, or way of thinking.. some people just cant pay their bills on time no matter what.. dont we all know adults like this?

Lose - lose situation.Like I said, I would be careful, be present when he's in occupied rentals, have insurance, have temporary door lock codes that expire when he's done or change locks (good idea if you're giving any hired person access to your place), watch for behavior changes, search for recent convictions or drug issues, and so on.

If you only care about maximizing profits, at the expense of the tenants livelihood (essentially) this will reflect in the behavior and turnover of the tenant. 

I wrote their landlord about the tenant’s bad behavior.

That is NOT a landlord/tenant relationship.I'd suggest you enforce your agreement, lay down the law, have him change his behavior (not likely), or get rid of this tenant.  

From the guy screaming at the workers to the workers being subject to the screaming, both are indirectly accepting "their roles" and stretching the amount of craziness they can put up with.Consider this, for most people television is a powerful idea, just grab a camera, get as few friends as "crew" and you will se how people change their behavior, for good or for worst.

I believe the article displays a fundamental misunderstanding of the US monetary system.
