State Specific Question About: TENNESSEE (TN)

I put all new flooring and had all interior painted in my rental and i thought i was ready to list it. However, I found that a few of the floor tiles in front of the fireplace were damaged and my floor guys left off the surrounding trim. Should I go ahead and list the house anyway? The pictures are going to reflect the minor work that needs done ( Which my handyman will be fixing). Or should i wait until he is done with it and then list it? I thought about listing it now and putting a notation in the description letting potential renters know about it and that the repair will be made shortly. --50.116.xx.xxx

Can you just not show it in the pictures? A good tenant is going to need a 30 day window to move, so I'd advertise and show it now and make the repair as soon as you're able to. --143.105.xxx.xxx

If I knew my guy was going to fix it next week and it was minor stuff I'd list it and get the ball rolling. Time is money.

I'm not sure how long this house will take to get rented. I feel o k in my marketing but there is a lot of new competition in this area. --50.116.xx.xxx

Something little like that I would list it. But I would be positive that it would be fixed asap and that there was nothing else that had been left off.

I would not allow tenants to move in until it was 100% done. I think that sets a precedent that I am not comfortable with. Especially if there is a chance that you have to file on them. They can how pictures of the defect and tell the judge you didn't have a nice place. --47.227.xx.xxx

Take off the pic showing defect and list. Then have it fixed while you do your prescreening, collecting names to schedule for a showing. If it isn't fixed when you show, you should know by when it will be fixed and can tell viewers.

In Wisconsin, if someone is to move in before a repair is made, we are required to put in writing a date when it will be repaired. I would suggest as ZERO. have it done before someone moves in; do not allow viewers to take pics at showing. --216.131.xx.xxx

I have a walk thru page on my lease.

But it is for things like the kitchen floor has a scuff mark, not because something is missing or damaged beyond normal use. --47.227.xx.xxx
