I am absolutely floored, and I couldn't have done it without the help of many many people. .... 2 months ago I was working a factory job at a place that makes generic pharmaceutical drugs, and I could not have been unhappier.

That, in my opinion, speaks to their overall character.I had a tenant whose background check showed a drug conviction that was 6 years old, but no other red flags.

It was a drug house.

It is not my type of building but you know if you have rent paying tenants and you don't continue the bucket and board tradition I would rather have these tenants then drug dealers that I would associate with a slum anyday.

It's an interesting thread to read, no one can seem to understand why horrible credit, and drug trafficking charges would make a landlord not interested in renting to someone.

There have been all the usual problems; I walked 1 fellow off a job site for using drugs, walked another off for being dumb and screwing up the last step in a project etc etc.

No gun shots/drug deals on the corner etc.

Top thoughts are; Drug money and scam.

It was a drug addled area of lack-luster landlords and the town is Extremely cooperative - as they see it is being cleaned up as we rehab and re-rent well.

Original loan was 570,000.00 it foreclosed and I guess went back to the lender for 1,515,000.00 (what it says on the zillow report) the house is vacant now but there was an eviction that led to a major drug bust.
