I had two problem tenants back to back-one was a long term tenant and I don't know what happened with her (possibly drugs), the other covid hit and her and her husband split up and she got in with some troublemakers who she knew from high school. 

I feel like I've dealt with every time crazy situation there is here in Chicago with squatters, evictions, drug dealers, etc., and I still love Cook County because I have a solid team and underwrite deals properly.I think @Paul De Luca nailed it on the head, though - it seems like you are quite risk-adverse, so maybe given your risk tolerance, it's not the best idea, but if it were me, I would not think twice about it, and find a rock start property manager who knows exactly how to vet tenants.

Quote from @Nathan Gesner: Unkempt lawns, trashy or broken down vehicles, mattresses and trash on empty lots, boarded up houses, bars on windows, dealers and hookers on the corners, the lack of stores or gas stations, occupied properties are dilapidated, etc.Or when Google maps shows stuff like this: If those are drug zombies, as they appear to be, that's an "F" class neighborhood where nobody pays rent and structure burnouts are common.

I than thought it was tenants, all the "what if's"; what-if they have a fire, what-if there is a shooting, dead body, drug raid, break-in, squatters, feces art, etc etc etc.....   

You will have tenets who destroy your place, use it as a trap house or drug den and will accuse you of being a slumlord no matter what.  

In Mexico, that won't happen; you'll be shot if you get involved in the drug business, which most people won't do.

.✅ Thirdly, in regard to objectionable tenancy and nuisance caused by disruptive tenants, you will need to document these violations with undeniable evidence.Because police reports are not usually able to be procured due to disturbances like drug trafficking or domestic violence, you’ll need to take matters into your own hands on producing that documentation.I recommend getting security cameras installed in all common areas and outside your properties.I’ve used SimpliSafe security cameras but you’ll need to install WiFi service at your properties so that you can maintain recordings in the event of violations and add to your lease that any tampering with said cameras constitutes a lease violation as well.This is still developing and once we get further clarity, we will host a round table with legal experts on how to best protect our properties and residents.

Openly communicating the selling process can help alleviate their fears and ensure a smoother transition.● Transparent Communication.

One of the biggest drug dealers in WA state history.

I hear a few have made money with him, but many have lost.I heard Joey was arrested for drugs, but haven’t heard much else.
