Does a landlord have to notify new tenant of suicide in a house?

Unless it is in the contract or required by law, the property management company is probably not required to tell the property owner if a tenant commits suicide. However, common sense and protection from possible liability would recommend that action. A death would have occurred on that piece of property. The property owner should be notified. The property owner should have a copy of the investigation and a copy of the death certificate. If the property owner never receives a certified letter with a copy of the investigation, it would seem like the management company might be part of a coverup in a death. So, to protect itself, the property management company should send the property owner a certified letter with a return receipt containing the report of the investigation.
