I had a quick turnover between tenants this week. The tenants that moved out had two dogs. They have been model tenants, and left the home seemingly very clean. However, I had the carpets professionally cleaned ...

Roy N. nailed it - best permanent solution here is to try to monopolize the block and only have decent tenants in your own properties.

Two simple solutions: place a fan in the room or buy a Vent fan.

I'm looking into other creative finance solutions like subject-to/master lease options.Seems like those may be a better fit for what I'm trying to do.

If you are on your own well water, talk to your plumbing supply house about plumbers that specialize in water treatment systems that could come out and check your water.

This was my only solution I could come up with and it seems like a 2 birds 1 stone way to get the 2nd mortgage and eliminate PMI on the first rental.

Telling them to leave may be too obvious of a solution so you should probably just file for eviction since you are confident you have no other property owner rights.

I guess it's a tool but not a solution.
