My business model for several decades involved litigation and mitigation of some of the craziest cases, both off the radar and high profiles, that you can imagine.A court of equity does not always rule what's fair, but what upon what is presented before the court and the bench officer attempts to interpret, apply statutes and prior rulings. 

Legal pot, if that's your thing.

I'm speaking of Colorado that's had a big influx of people in the last couple of years I think at least partly attributable to the pot laws there.

I prefer to keep hands out of the pot and find ways to finance or leverage purchases without having outsiders have their hands in the pot.I'm currently looking at getting into a larger 100 to 200 unit.

It's smart to bench mark values throughout ownership.

It is owned free and clear and was a rental that ended up being rented by a pot dealer who used it as a grow house.

I don't watch the entire valley, so there may still be a pot-o-gold somewhere, but I haven't seen many deals lately.

In time, this ground work will turn into a pot of gold.Enduring success in the real estate business is not a get rich quick scheme.

Then cosmetically, go cheap on new flooring and paint, because that will all have to be redone when you are ready to sell.When it is time to sell, you remove the tenant damaged flooring, upgrade to better stuff, add some pots of flowers, do a new paint job, and it should be close to ready to go back on the market.Oh, and screen your applicants very carefully.

I'm sure plenty have seen the age on the market and just throw a number in the pot.
