If they smoke and your policy is that you do not allow smokers as tenants, they have to go.If you permit them to stay, you will come to regret your decision and will pay the price both financially and in free rent in your head for allowing yourself to be talked into an obvious conflict of behavior.Smokers pay a price for their habit beyond sales taxes and health issues.

@Ted Akers @Don Konipol @Joel Owens @Steve Sparks I hope you all enjoy good health and I wish all the best for 2015!

I financed a commercial property for a young marine who got into power washing/cleaning the hoods & fire protection systems over the cooking stations in restaurants etc.He had developed a niche market with very little competition & carried the necessary certification to post for the respective health dept., inspectors.The work had to be done whenever the establishments kitchen were closed so it was usually a lot of early mornings/late nights.

FHA appraisers are very concerned about (perceived) health and safety issues, and will "fail" a property if there are broken windows, mold, unsafe living conditions, etc. etc.

Thank you BPYours in Health!
