Hearing peoples opinions on BP on where to invest is like asking someone their favorite football team. 

If nothing else, offering a small reward like a gift card to their favorite restaurant (ask when they initially sign the lease) helps.

This is one of my favorite strategies - allowing the tax authority to take it to foreclosure. 

Changing the tractor's oil in the driveway was another favorite: keeps the dust down in the summer.The developer risk is if that solid ever gets tested (phase one or phase two environmental study) you may have to dispose of it as toxic waste, which is super expensive.
