If you don`t live there to teach the safety of the fireplace, the language is called plywood, tenant insurance You are interested prolly is the closest, but make sure your insurance company knows that there is a wood stove to get fire protection or cancellation – this goes to plywood. If you are trying to change the current lease before it ends, I would suggest getting the tenant to sign a lease agreement dealing with the use of the chimney. Otherwise, they may have to wait until they have rented it to make changes. Finally, make sure that your agreement inserts these words into as many sections as possible: “The tenant is responsible for the acts, debts or damage caused by all inmates, guests and guests.” Hello Jackie, it really depends on your agreement with the tenant. If you have agreed to provide them with certain furniture, you cannot simply remove it. But when they are told that certain pieces are only provided temporarily, that`s another story. You offered this place for rent because you knew there was a fireplace. Why not make sure the chimney is functional and safe? It seems reasonable for you to pay a serious contractor to do so. You can teach your tenant the proper use of the fireplace function. I asked the tenants to “install” them in a hotel because the heat had dropped. There have been times when I have done it as a courtesy, but I do not want to be forced to do so just because my lease no longer protects the owners.
Maybe you were able to find out about a non-brain. Just add what the tenant is responsible for in a nicely written lease supply clause, and call it a day, right? One house used their decorative fireplace improperly (they had removed our insulation, but had not established a proper design) and within minutes each wall and ceiling covered with soot. I had to wash the whole house, prepare them and repaint them. Before entering into a lease agreement, a lessor should seek documented professional legal advice to ensure that it protects itself and its investment. More information can be found below: The quality of your lease is important. It`s a lesson that far too many mom and pop owners and rental investors learn in the hardest way. Also, I`m not really crazy about using wood burns when people aren`t sure what they`re doing. Should I include provisions that would cover me if I am liable for the tenant`s use of the chimney? Make sure I`ve covered everyone.
All the answers were appreciated. Thank you! It looks like the tenant is responsible for all utilities, under your lease 🙂 It is gas-powered, so there is no need to burn wood, but the chimney needs parts, has never been tested, nor has been tested for safe use. A small clause may not be the Solve-all, but it can certainly help. Here is (it`s now an insider`s secret): make sure you include a clause in your tenancy agreement that if there is evidence of overuse, the tenant pays the difference.
