Need strong lease to help keep unwanted, problem tenants out.

What measures do you incorporate in your property management to help maintain that residents are keeping  up their residents in a sanitary manner. 

We have a drug infested apartment complex on our Urban Street that attracts fighting, litter, and unwanted activities. 

I was told we might be able to evoke the Drug Abatement law where the property might be able to be seized by law officials. Any suggestions on cleaning up the property is appreciated.

Thanks,

Karen

@Karen Moysi

You need strong screening far more than a strong lease.   The best way to eliminate the undesirable behaviours is to not allow them to take-up residency in the first place.
