There's a party wall agreement in place, and our HOA is very limited—they don’t carry any master insurance policy and only handle trash and some parking enforcement.Here’s my concern:What happens if my tenant accidentally leaves a candle burning and it causes a fire that damages my unit and a few of the neighboring units?

Drain-and-fill can get expensive, and unfortunately, guests tend to misuse the tub—candles, glitter, lotions, you name it.

Whenever we've done welcome packages in the past, we've done candles, chocolate, cleaning supplies and a gift card to local store or restaurant. 

Instead, I surf Facebook Marketplace for heavy, handmade furniture.

I’m literally burning candle at both ends preparing the STR and responding to guest messages.

This is literally a fire sale, idiot tenant lit candle, set mattress on fire but managed to drag mattress outside; there is smoke damage.

We bought a candle business with seller financing, put 2% down, the rest was financed over 8 years at 8% with Step Up Payments.

Kind of a bummer as it was a handmade futon from a local woodworker.

keep in mind all the fuel is now gone.. so wild fire will not be an issue going forward as long as folks do more of a desert style landscaping and dont plant things that burn like Eucalyptus as one poster mentioned those things go up like a roman candle at 4th of July.

If you’re aiming for ambiance, consider dimmable wall sconces, warm LED strip lighting behind a headboard, or flameless candles on a timer.
