In Louisiana, what are the rules for smoke alarms?

Anyway, the silver lining was that the property was worth more without a structure on it because it was in a historical district.

Thats just a gateway to bigger issues.If it is legally owned, I'd be more likely to evict for smoking in the apt.I'm a landlord; I rent space.

Another tenant a few months in wasn’t working out for us with a no smoking policy, we smelled smoke coming out the window so gave him a 60 day notice and he ended up buying a mobile home, we renovated and went from a 675 rent to 1300.

I don't mean I'm scared that it smells like pee that I don't want to buy it in a matter of fact I know that it'll scare off most people, but I have read threads on BP from rehabbers who have purchased smoke filled homes and animal smell stained sub floors that no matter what they did, they could not get rid of that smell.

You need a lead disclosure, smoke and carbon detector notice, pet agreement, we also use their non standard lease provisions and pet agreements.

I had to replace pretty much everything metal in that room, door hinges, door knobs, smoke detector, metal wall art (why did they even think that was a good idea?)

Let me know what you think.As a matter of information, smoking is prohibited inside our rental units.If you decide that the apartment would meet your needs and wish to proceed with the application process, a “deposit to hold” binder equal to a month’s rent would need to be collected at that time.

I'd trust that more than some random cabin, any day of the week.While true, smoking is down significantly over the past 20 years (maybe as much as 50 percent) and real estate allows you to get 5-8x leverage without a margin call.

You need to show every single thing you could possibly take off for, such as broken blinds/windows/missing smoke detectors, holes in the walls, etc.
