It is dangerously hot out there, and is a liability.

Northside Neighborhood of Cincy is a dangerous.

one guy got 5 years in state prison for that little scheme. its a very dangerous model for those with limit money.. just like the other guy said in FLA you can end up in jail.. well you certainly can in Oregon if your scheme was to be a bad boy or girl .

It's more of an issue if they keep missing payments and eventually have to be evicted...but that can happen any time, regardless of a crash.The only major dangers I see are: a substantial decrease in rents and now your expenses are no longer covered (generally not a huge risk) or if you have an adjustable-rate mortgage (hopefully not).

If crime is your concern, find a neighborhood that is less dangerous and/or up-and-coming.

The fact remains it is extremely wrong and dangerous, and IMO, is the dynamic that creates the perpetually increasing prices we see in housing.Bubble.

The same trick would work if you had something more complex and dangerous like a gambrel roof to do, but with contractors handling the more difficult parts.

Also buying RE when you are in debt and don’t have reserves is a dangerous place to be. 

@Mindy Jensen since a cracked heat exchanger and radon are both potentially dangerous then yes, they become an item that must be disclosed.
