VAPING CAN DEFINITELY LEAVE LONGTERM SMELL

[Landlord1]

The title says it all. The past comments are from vapers and individuals from the vaping industry.
Landlords MUST word contracts as, " Non vaping and non smoking".
A lodger was in a room and vaped for 1 year. The room and curtains still smell 1 year later. AVOID all vapers.
I have never vaped or smoked but the odour sticks to walls and fabric.

 

[Beamslider]

Maybe wash the curtains?

Life smells. How about no cooking in the APT?

Most landlords do a thorough cleaning/painting/replacing things that get damaged during the time of the property rental, usually at the renters expense, the deposit that's normally not returned and put in escrow to draw interest. Or at least that's how its supposed to work.

You must be very new to rental investment properties.

1.
Curtains? You rent fully furnished properties? And dont clean them?
Tip: vertical blinds. Cheap, plastic, easily washed and replaced.

2. You don't paint between tenants?
Shampoo carpets?
Tip: a freash coat of pain and clean carpets are expected by most renters.


The object of a rental investment property is to generate income from renters.
Restrictions eliminate potential customers.
Eliminate too many and the asset becoms a liability and you loose money.

Lighten up francis and use good sense or you'll end up loosing your shirt.

Welcome to real estate.

I'm just confused as to why you'd join a vaping forum to tell everybody to 'AVOID all vapers', I must be missing something.

I vape unflavoured so my curtains smell of....nothing.

Lol

I'm pretty sure we all know why .

Have you tried washing anything as yet?

Either a troll or an angry old man shouting at the sky.

I love the smell my Strawberries & Cream vape leaves lingering in the room when I return after a day out. I much prefer it over the smell of tobacco tar.

No smell here. You must be mistaking it for something else.
Maybe you can explain how I've been vaping in a new car for 18 months and nobody can smell a thing.

Are you here to talk vaping or just complain about something you've decided in your own mind?
Perhaps your tenant has simply lied to you. It has been known to happen.

I would imagine a prospective tenant would claim to be a non-smoker and non-vaper when asked the question, so good luck with your plan.

Oh, and I have also vaped in (up to) 5 star hotels and not drawn the first comment from establishments that would take advantage of cleaning charges in the event of somebody abusing their rooms.

Yes if a bit of smell is all he's got to complain about he's lucky, I know I would never ever be a landlord again and it had nothing to do with smells.

Smells like a damn bakery in here, thats $500 off your security deposit damn vaper!

Funny thing is, federally funded public housing is banning cigarette smoking in all their buildings but are allowing e cigarette use to continue. Hard to picture the feds as caring more about their tenants than the OP feels about their tenants. I wonder if a neighbor of a vaper in the apartment building ever called up to complain about the reeking strawberry smell wafting over from next door.

 

[Asbestos4004]

I'd like to apply for a lease....I'm thinking you'd be a fantastic landlord. Where do I sign???

 

[Gramdogg]

Probably smoked drugs and used vaping as an excuse for the strange odour lol. Friends know what I'm vaping by the smell and none vape or have said anything about any bad odour left behind. I don't vape tobaccos so maybe that was the reason.

When I take my mother to the doctor she actually loves the smell of my vape(BLVK Unicorn FRNapple).

Hey landlord! It's not vape, it's air freshener!

Curtains? Toss em and go get plastic horizontal blinds it's like 6-8$ for most windows and just replace after the tenant moves out... Every Tenant...

I vape heavily in my small place 500sqft, I have no carpet other than area rugs because carpet is for suckers, real tile or real hardwood (that is thick so it can be re-sanded) is the way to go, it will last decades, as for walls/ceilings I could see popcorn ceiling being a problem but seriously if your place has popcorn ceiling it's time to update that place, I clean my walls about every 3 months... 5 gallon bucket of water, 1/4 cup TSP in it and a couple cheap dollar store sponge mops and everything comes right off (put towels by the baseboards)... Used to clean the same way back in the 90's/early 00's when I still smoked inside....

I was standing on a pier one day. It was a very long time ago. My mom had taken me with her to use crab pots. We had tossed several into the water and we were waiting. The idea is that you have these cages that remain open when there is slack on the line that they are hung from. When you pull the line up, the cages slam shut and any crabs in the cages get stuck inside. You can use various methods to get the crabs out of the cages once you bring them back up. I pioneered the system of attaching a hand held net with handle to a single crutch. Worked like a charm.

Well, this one day a seagull came lazily gliding by above us in the warm Summer sky. It seemed to have come from some place very far away and was on its way somewhere else, equally far away. It appeared to exert no effort as it moved through the air and it appeared to be completely unaware of its surroundings. As it passed over the pier the seagull let go with a tremendous amount of fecal matter. Now, as I understand it, birds tend to release solid and liquid waste simultaneously through the same opening. So there was probably some liquid waste mixed in that load. But it certainly contained a substantial amount of fecal matter judging by the way it impacted the pier dozens of feet below.

That's what this thread reminds me of.

I can imagine that someone who vapes a lot of ml's in thick clouds with lots of flavoring might spoil the inside of a rental, especially if he has friends coming over who are doing the same. I wouldn't want that in a rental of mine (if Ihad one) or in my own house (where I do vape). May be the difference is I vape high ohms and low watts and my DIY has just 1% flavoring which tastes fne btw but is hard for others to detect. I don't want my vape to have a noticable impact anywhere.
