It actually turned out they had genuine issues with their bank accounts being compromised.

@Shawn Burns I would ask them to fill out an application only once they have had a showing and are genuinely interested in renting the property.

really resonated with me.  

If you treat people with simple honestly and kindness and respect, with a genuine desire to help them find the best deal for them, they will send their friends, family and acquaintances to you. 

People can usually tell if you're being genuine.  

Anyone have recommendations for a NJ litigation attorney that’s familiar with condo law and resonably priced?

I am still a "nice" landlord , genuinely enjoy most of my tenants.

I wouldn't want to place my hard-earned dollars with someone who didn't genuinely care about me/my investment either - that just plain stinks.

If you buy good rentals, in good neighborhoods, screen tenants, and are genuinely interested in providing them with a good living experience, you'll get fewer complaints.  

I should add, like others have stated, that like the second hand contact/inhalation of cigarette carcinogens, the ingestion of toxic spores would take quite some time to genuinely make you ill, aside from maybe a little runny nose or small headache...which brings me back full circle to the "myriad of other illnesses."
