Turning over a rental unit with a smoker

[Catherine Ding]

Hi BP! I’m a new investor, looking at a potential duplex of 2601 sqft total (3 bed/1 bath each unit). The downstairs tenant has been there for about 10 years and is a smoker. Does anyone have any insights of how much it typically costs to turn over a unit like that to get it odorless and rent ready again? Thank you!!

I've had my best results in smoke situations (fire, pot, cigarette) using a ozone generator 1st, then washing with TSP, then either bin or kilz
