[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 528584, member: 1233"] Janet, this is a totally nonsmoking house. No smoking anywhere on the premises. the owners are still trying to sell and we are month to month or I would invite you down for a while. Around here most of the rentals are now nonsmoking. Even ones that I know dang well have had tenants that smoke and are still owned by smokers are listed as nonsmoking and the fees for smoking on the premises are HUGE. We don't have a penalty in our lease because we are friends of the owners, but I saw one place that was $250 for each cigarette budt on the outside premises incl in trash cans and was $350 for each one inside the house. An odor of smoke inside the home is a fee of $400-$1000 depending on the place. in my opinion this is NOT so much because tenants don't want to live somewhere that people are smoking but rather is just another way to keep deposits and squeeze $$$ out of people. Heck, 2 of the mobile home parks that are owned by people I know have gone totally nonsmoking to the point that you cannot smoke inside a mobile home that you own!! They changed the leases wehn people renewed them, without making ANY mention of it unless the tenant saw it and asked about it. The really nasty part about this is that the owner and his kids and their wives ALL are smokers and they are allowed to smoke in the office but no one else can. I know them and when I mentioned that it seemed pretty unfair that they could smoke but tenants who had been there for decades and were always smokers could not. The answer I got really changed my opinion of the woman (wife of the son of the owner) because she was soooo snotty and hypocritically nasty and said some really horrible things about the people who smoke. We haven't spoken since because I mentioned that as a smoker she was talking about herself. [/QUOTE]
