I know you have to crawl before you walk, but I have a disabled child and I need to be mindful of the environment I place her in.

I would suggest that you bring a highly reputable witness with you during your inspection. 3) Make sure you check your lease regarding how much advance notice you must give the tenant. 4) Be courteous to the tenant or the mother but don't get into any discussion at all about anything. 5) If the mother is there, notice is she appears to have any obvious disability.

If the seller is "vulnerable" (a minority race, elderly, disabled, unsophisticated, etc) special provisions and punishments apply.
