Real life Breaking Bad? This was a crazy one for sure...

I've flipped a lot of houses that had meth contamination in them, but this one took the cake. In hindsight, it's pretty obvious that these sellers were dealers... and as it turns out cookers as well (is that even a word...?) Anyway, for anyone who has ever been scared to flip a meth lab I hope this 6 minute video takes away that fear.

Spoiler Alert! For those of you who want to skip the entertaining 6 minute video, this house tested higher than I have EVER seen before, but I had it professionally remediated and still made a 40k net profit on it. Tip of the day: If you suspect that the house has meth contamination, get it tested EARLY in the process, it will save you time, headache (no pun intended), and money. Enjoy. :)

In Utah do you have to disclose that it was a cook site? I imagine that would be a turn off to some buyers. I don't care how well it was re mediated I wouldn't live there.
