I battled with them about numerous items with the last tenant.

Tell him to fix this problem, or he'll have a bigger one.You may not actually win any legal battle, as a judge might say you should have done your own due diligence. 

If you didn't see either of those notices, it could be a battle to regain the property. 7. 

., will be a losing battle, and fair housing may fight you on it.So, kick them out for some other reason.If you did good landlord checks, I know it's still possible to not get good info. 

A court battle, no rent and potential vandalism seem more expensive than a bribe to me.

,Of course, no one is expected to charge below market rents.My point was that if you have a reliably-paying tenant and choose to raise their rent to a level you know they cannot afford, you're going to have vacancy soon and the expense which goes along it ("there goes your profit").Most of my earliest mentors always said, "Choose your battles carefully."

The what if game is a losing battle.

My big piece of advice is pick your battles.

@Brandon Battle kind of how I felt.  

If you don't find a buyer and you gacknout, then that seller is foreclosed on because they don't have enough time to find a new real buyer, you could be in for a lovely legal battle.
