Best Tenants are Drug Dealers

[Cory Boren]

I had the best tenants ever with no late payments and no repair calls.  Three years later I was worried when the rent was not deposited by the 2nd.  Normal for most of my tenants but this particular case was different since they deposited the rent into my account and I had not talked to them in years. After going to the property and leaving notice I had to enter from a window in the back. The grass was cut but every window had been screened so I couldn't see in.  Upon entry I noticed the master had been used as some sort of industrial storage facility for drugs.  After looking for a duffle bag full of money stored in the attic and back yard I began to wonder what my liability was for unwilling allowing this to happen. Unfortunately this has happened once before and I'm beginning to think they can pick me out among the crowd. As great as they are as tenants I can't help but wonder my liability in this type of situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ..
