I see that ur in LA.

If his offense is above that of public urination I'm in agreement with the other posts: give him a 30 day notice.

@Royce Talbo We are big fans of vinyl planks, particularly in basements, but a determined cocker spaniel who wants to "dig into" the corner in which another dog has urinated can make a quick mess of vinyl planks.I ripped out 200ft^2 of proof last month.

All of the furniture was destroyed with burn marks, stains, damage from a dog they acquired after they checked in, urine stains, holes in the wall, etc.

Sometimes it is difficult to know where to draw the line-- for me the following situations are not ok:any conditions that would allow a tenant to escrow rent,  must be fixed immediately. any evidence of a hoarding risk, Any evidence of hard drug use or any drug sales, Filth to a degree that would attract vermin or pests, Smoking in a renovated unit, evidence of destruction by tenants or pets (holes in doors, urine/stains on carpet, cigarette burns)Outside conditions that are unsafe or that vary from the norm for the neigborhood.

In most cases, we cannot expect our tenants to take care of the lawn as we wanted it to be and may lead to disputes.Renters are temporary, and they mainly expect to pay for the roof over their head.unfortunately, I had to deal with some similar experience when I rented out my property.I ended up having several dead spots due to urine turf damage.Make sure to clearly state out the lines regarding the lawn care in your rental agreement.I would suggest you make use of residential landscaping services in your locality and add that amount as u said to your rental amount.This way you can avoid unnecessary chaos and maintain your lawns beautiful as the way you want it to be.
