My tenant wants to change the baseboards in the rental unit. The existing ones are in good repair. If I allow my tenants to change the baseboards am I required to provide my tenants an abatement of rent?

You are not required to provide your tenants with an abatement of rent if the baseboards are in good repair. You and your tenant can sign an agreement stating that the baseboards are in good repair and tenant may change the baseboards should they wish at their own expense.
