The Cleveland PD performed a surprise drug raid at one of our properties today.

AFTER giving up on the guy and hiring a new landscaper and buying sod again I came to easily find out online he had prior drug/weapon arrests.. 

., but there's also a high degree of income inequality and poor economic mobility; hence the poverty, crime, drugs, etc., and "war zones" where these things occur.

Smoking, car graveyard, and drug use etc.

Living in Raleigh or Cary will certainly alleviate that issue.

Beechmont and the Southern Pky area are desirable and up and coming (maybe already here and past) but much of that area has lots of drugs and seems to be trending downward.  

You have a few options:1) Call code to close down the apartment for unsafe conditions2) If you do want to use the legal system, go through with it - dont worry about more damage. 3) Call PD for drug use and they will close down the apt in conjunction with code

However ... we ran into title issues that drug the whole thing out to 8 months.

That being said, prior to the seaweed and drug cartel invasion of Mexico, we went there every couple years and loved it. 

Also regarding the NACA loans (had one buyer try that once and it actually failed, but its a really new program to our area) If i had a proven lending source that a buyer has been drug through the mud for a few months, i'd be willing to pay a premium for them too.
