I imagine the allure type flooring would hold up even better to moisture but it's also about 1.49/sqft whereas laminate can be had for 0.29/sqft for something that might last 5 years and under 1/sqft for stuff that should last longer than that.  

What's up everyone - first time posting on DA forum...be gentle!

Tenant agrees to allow Landlord timely access to premises to do maintenance and repair.Tenant will notify Landlord in a timely manner of any damages or problems as they arise, including damages caused by Tenant, malfunction of appliances or fixtures, and water/moisture leaks and spots.Tenant will take care of the premises, keeping them clean and clear of debris.

I'm not their social worker as sorry as I may be that they can't seem to pay their bills.At any rate, pretending to be the property manager may be a more "gentle" way for you if you just can't say "this is the criteria I must legally follow for every person that contacts me regarding this rental property".Gail

Here is the link:https://www.epa.gov/mold/printable-version-brief-g...It's a good read, whether or not there is the potential for lead based paint to be disturbed.Another booklet about "Mold, Moisture and Your Home" is also an essential communication that every landlord should be giving to every tenant.

If the existing floor is vinyl, the answer should be yes, you can because vinyl provides a good moisture seal. 

The following are some property selection guidelines.Older properties require more maintenance than newer properties.Composition roofs require more maintenance than tile roofs.Properties in climates with hard freezes require more maintenance than properties in mild climates.Properties in locations with a lot of moisture require more maintenance than properties in dryer climates.Wood siding requires more maintenance than aluminum or stucco siding.Properties with lush vegetation require more maintenance than properties with little or no vegetation.Locations with high levels of termite activity will require more maintenance than areas with little or no termite activity.The tenant pool has a significant impact on your ongoing maintenance cost.

Dry all studs and sheathing to 12% moisture (some contractor’s use 15%).

I have an STR and I'm wanting to gently reach out to newer markets. 

The good news (at least it seems like good news) is that the cause of the moisture was a burst pipe not a leaky foundation or some other mystery cause..
