Tou V. Invest in Decatur, IL ?
8 July 2016 | 6 replies
A large portion of the inner city population survives on government assistance and programs which, in my opinion, contributes to the higher levels of crime and drug activity in those areas, but we’ll leave that political topic for another discussion…As far as investing goes, I’ve been happy with the investments I’ve made.

The tenant can violate their entitlement agreement (or whatever it's called) for personal reasons - like getting behind on child support, drug use, or having a guest who is a convicted felon on the property, but if the actual property does not pass - even if it fails because of a condition the tenant caused, my experience has been that it's going to fall on the homeowner. 
Erin B. Tenants ended relationship

If not, then you are likely to get drug into this drama.An early termination agreement maybe called for in this case since it's a one bed and it's not too likely that the guy will get another roommate and perhaps can't afford the place on his own.

It's not such a big deal to rent to lower income people, just make sure you don't rent to lower class people.Lower income = not having a lot of moneyLower class = liars, drug users/dealers, questionable morals, lack of respectThere are lower income people that have a high amount of class just as there can be more wealthy people that are lower class.Lower income and lower class people can come in any color.
