The unit upstairs to one of my rentals is owned by a woman, who lives there in unhealthy condition. She is always intoxicated ( alcohol for what I smell ) , the condo inside stinks, she has numerous animals and it is ...

It was a beautiful unit but there was an infestation of ants on the second day of our stay and the dryer didn’t work.

Contractors can lowball you just to get the contract signed shark infested waters you're treading.

After a few years of that your bathroom will be infested with mold.

If I lower my expectations and go for a different unit, I'm going to have to rely on the city, which I'm willing to do, but rent goes about half less than the neighborhood here and the city is kind of gross and is also infested with bed bugs everywhere.

I bought FSBO and had them fill out a disclosures form which they basically filled in nothing and then a standard purchase agreement for my area (I am a realtor as well). 1 week after closing I find out the house has a massive carpenter ant infestation, ok no biggie have them taken care of.

Im only pointing out the possibilities with site unseen. here is an example, go to Hubzu and look at the house in Kewaskum WI 168 Washington Ave, you would never know, its gutted to the studs, and everything is infested with mold. or I have seen basements with water to the top of th basement stairs, froze solid, and they look fine through the windows.

"Water bugs" as they were called in the OG post are likely American or Oriental cockroaches, of which, do not infest indoors.

Hey everyone,I walked through a pretty run-down house the other day that was completely infested with cats.
