If there are toxins found, then require a disclosure on the toxins present in the house that could cause "suicidal thoughts" or "explosive diarrhea" or whatever they cause, you know, something like the warnings on most of the prescription drug commercials on TV!

We would then be forced with the ugly, distasteful and unfortunate dilemma of kicking out (or at least trying to) a very nice single-mother & child (who happen to be not-horrible tenants) during winter-cold February PLUS inconveniencing all the mothers who bring their 3 month olds to that particular daycare.This is not a pretty situation.If it comes down to an 'eviction' it could get ugly (it's one thing to evict a drug-dealer but another altogether to evict a single mom&child with daycare babies...!)

My parents were both active in all sorts of property transactions from Buy and Hold, Rehab, Flip, ect.I was raised on diet of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Automatic Millionaire, and Millionaire Next Door and at 29 it is finally clicking.

They like our units, however, I'm worried about having individuals with mental behavioral problems and possible drug addictions.

All occupied units , but mo. to mo. for 3 of 4 tenants.I also found a police call from 3 months ago for drugs on the police blotter that gives me further pause.

Obviously, smoking pot, snorting coke, agreeing with racist Jeremiah Wright, being friends with the terrorist Ayers, etc... are perfectly ok, you voted for a man who does these things.I am sure if a Tenant Application stated, "I use and sell drugs, associate with terrorists and my wife has been ashamed to be an American" on his application, you would happily rent to him.

Now, whether the acceptable difference is $1K or $100K is only a question of how much your time is worth... but at the beginning there's also the cost of educating yourselfTo the guys (and lady) in this thread, since you seem to have experience in this area, i'm curious if any of you have dealt with former half-way houses (private residences used as drug and addiction rehabs) and code-specific issues that were attached?

I have heard of people getting sucked into drugs or gambling and destroying a successful business.

The towns were garbage, rents are low, drug use high.

Plus I think it would send two signals, the first signal being to potential criminals that they are on watch the second signal to the tenants that this is a safe environment.Reminds me of a new show I watched today, Flip Men, they bough a meth property amd they took steps to clean up the property and the surrounding area by: installing a motion light, upkeeping the back alley, confronting and taking pictures of the drug dealers...sorry off track, wifi...
