Hi @Scott Price,Thank you for that thorough answer.Please entertain a hypothetical for me.Your FICO goes down 100 points because you purchased drugs on your credit card, missed a bunch of CC payments, and the financials you provide are written on a bar napkin.

A drug company develops a new drug.

He added the drug benefit to the nearly bankrupt Medicare program, which was inexcusable.

So I look more at other factors: - Criminal history - especially nothing to do with drugs - Eviction history - don't want it but I have taken people with one eviction in the past - Rental history -- are they hopping from place to place every year?

Thank you Pros.PS- I heard that there are fat margins on windows so maybe a motivated supplier on a diet will sell them cheaper?

Do not pick the house next to the known drug house, go over a street or two.

They say drug addicts consistently chase instant gratification. 

What a great time to start investing, wish I had not drug my feet so long!

Fun fact about myself, I recently made a conscious decision to stop my career as a drug dealer after 1 year and decided to fully apply myself to real estate.

There is a lot of real estate to be had but will the drug/crime wave die down?
