katti 11 | My tenant commit suicide in my apartment. By law do I have to tell the new tenant? ? |

No, you do not even have to tell if you are asked.
The only laws regarding a disclosure of death on the property apply to buyers only. Renters have no rights to this personal information, it is none of their business. |

Depending on what state yes you do. CA it's within the last 3 years
Since so many people are telling you no I copied this from the CA site www.dca.ca.gov
Death in the Rental Unit
If a prior occupant of the rental unit died in the unit within the last three years, the owner or the owner's agent must disclose this fact to a prospective tenant when the tenant offers to rent or lease the unit. The owner or agent must disclose the manner of death, but is not required to disclose that the occupant was ill with, or died from, AIDS. However, the owner or agent cannot intentionally misrepresent the cause of death in response to a direct question.74 |

Only in California. I am not aware of any other state which requires disclosure of such a situation. I assume, of course, that the premises are now in proper condition for re-rental. |

This varies BY STATE and varies even more if it's a rental or a home for sale.
Call any local Realtor, they should be able to tell you.

yes. |

Of course. Don't want the new tenants to be surprised when they see a ghost floating around. |

i would say no unless they ask why the person left who was in there prior to them signing. |

|
NO!
I hope you had a company come in and clean out all traces of blood.
Also if any blood got on the carpet, best to replace it.

Unfortunately, I have first hand knowledge of this issue.
My wife's late husband shot himself in the head right in front of their 8-year-old daughter five years ago. It was a terrible mess for both, the cleanup for the landlord and emotionally for the family.
All states have disclosure laws that apply when a property is sold. Some of those laws require disclosing a death in the home, some do not. When you are renting, however, the disclosure laws do not apply because the property is not being sold.
The bottom line is the landlord does not have to tell a new tenant about the death. |

I doubt there is any legal requirement but if you don't tell him someone else will - on the other hand he'll have signed the lease by then though. |

No, you have no requirement to inform the tenant. Disclosure laws vary by state. I do not know of any disclosure laws to lease real estate, only when you sell real estate. Your obligation is to obtain a certificate of occupancy ( if required by local ordinance,where the property is located). Your obligation is to make sure the property is safe-that it has good locks, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, etc. and that the mechanicals all operate correctly. The sad history of your previous tenant has nothing to do with the new lessee. |

No, you don't. But if you were gonna move in there, wouldn't you want to know that a person took their own life in there?
C'mon dude, don't be an ***. Just tell them some **** took a knife across his jugular in the kitchen over the sink and there was a huge mess all over the house, especially on the old suede couches he owned.
=D
...... I suck =( lol
Good luck. |
