Tenant Wants New Carpets (4yrs)
My friend lives in a Palo Alto apartment. She’s been there 4 years. Good tenant. The existing carpet is that cheap commercial crap that I would even put in an office. It’s only a 15’ by 15’ patch of carpet. Some of the other units have hard wood.
What would be a tactful way to ask for new carpet? Should she just ask the property manager, or should she try to contact the owner? The owner is hands-off but the tenant has met the owner once.
Thank you all for your input, and generous contributions to the BP community

She should ask the property manager. The owner has a manager so they don't have to deal directly with tenants.
