The tenants in one of my properties keep the place in tip top condition, they have recently decorated the inside of the house and were asking me about getting the outside painted up, i think the chap will probably paint it himself if i say no but as they treat it as their home, i think only fair to get this done, am i being too soft, do tenants take the juice in general if they feel a landlord is open to this type of thing, heard of plenty who say no to just about anything ?
Also i recently refurbished a flat and rented it to an elderly lady and her daughter, i fitted a new bath with a mixer shower above it. They say they have some issues with getting the controls to put the water to the shower, rather than the taps, they have asked if i would fit an electric shower for them. They have offered to contribute towards the cost, is this something one would normally say it is at their cost, i'm thinking of splitting 50/50 as the system there works fine, just due to their age it is a bit difficult to operate ?
