Hi all,
I currently have a unit rented in Boronia. The lease is up end of next month and I am in the process of searching for some new tenants. To cut the story short, the tenants are Indian (all 3 are lovely & very friendly people - by no means am I racist) and they have have left the property with a distinct and very strong curry smell.
I am now looking at options to try and rid the property of these odours before I let potential tenants look through. Can the tenants be held liable for costs incurred trying to eliminate odours? Also the range-hood is completely clogged with oil and no longer works properly. They have also left a burn mark the size of a 5cent piece in the bench top which I would assume can be taken out of their bond to repair?
Any advice or options for anyone that has dealt with similar issues in the past would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
