At one point, there was a lot of meth labs being operated in self storage units but that has sort of went away for the most part.

We got along ok, until when he visited one time, and there was an 85# black lab, living in the condo.CUs are usually looser on the guideline.

I heard the other day google with its investment in sidewalk labs believes Toronto will be the largest tech hub/employer in North America after San Francisco...That being said, all the negative sentiment that we hear in the news is rhetoric.

I have sent popcorn to a local lab I found on yelp or somewhere.

I assume they need average rehab because they all seem to and make my offer accordingly.The walk-through and inspection is really only to find anything out of the ordinary like a meth lab or sinkhole.

On the other hand, if you have an obstinant interloper-in-possession with a "living better through chemistry" issue, rational thinking will be for naught. 

For people who are too busy, it's safer to just invest in index funds or other passive income that can't catch on fire or have a tenant run a meth lab in there.

You should be able to determine if the area has central water; go to the neighbors and determine if the area has central water, if all the houses are connected and who the supplier is, then contact the supplier and see if they service that address; walk the property and see if there is a well head; determine if the area has septic systems or central sewer; if septic system the well should be at least 100 ft. from drain field; there are water sampling labs that will test the water; I would have a full test run including heavy metals.

I have a degree in Chemistry from Michigan State University and now work in the renewable energy industry so I have limited formal experience in real estate. 

After getting my PhD in chemistry, I started a career teaching at a great private school.
