(:I would recommend getting on the phone and interviewing a minimum of 2-3 agents to grill them on their knowledge (both in general local real estate practices as well as investing), determine what they specialize in, and also to ensure your personalities gel. 

Paint is starting to bubble up in places, I assume due to nicotine. 

As for the cabinets, if you need to freshen them up I would do a light sand and a gel stain that's dark.  

Now one of the tenants is leaving and left cigarette burn holes all over the floor and the walls are absolutely coated in tar/nicotine.

I recently gave a 1970's tract house a mini kitchen face lift with General Finishes Java Gel Stain.

The bathroom vanity had a dozen burn marks in it, there were cigarette burns in the carpet and the kitchen tile, and the whole house was covered in a layer of nicotine, with streams of it running down the bathroom walls.

Then let it air out before you put back into the unit. 3) putting out glue boards to check how many are caught to check progress4) lastly, 1-2 weeks after last spraying, put out combat roach killing gel (must follow the instructions)Good luck!

How about giving them a tube of Hot Shot gel bait.

How do you go about being matched with a group of people that you gel with?

However I do have zero tolerance for growing, excessive smoking of anything inside to the point of bothering the neighbors, and of course tobacco use inside is grounds for swift and relentless punishment because nicotine smoke causes actual damage to the property.
