We have just bought our 2nd property (a 3 bedroom house) . The previous tenants were heavy smokers. Our property manager has said that the smoke has caused the walls to discolor and the odor is strong. She believes that a repaint will mask the smell and improve appeal (quote is about $3000. Do you think a good clean should do the trick or should we opt to get it re-painted? The house is about 10 years old. She reckons repainting would add about $30 per week to the rent and reduce vacancy period. Are there any tips for overcoming this without repainting? Thanks in advance!
