You have a friend who wants to be a body builder but year after year he/she uses the same dumbbell weights, choosing to never increase them because they are ...

Like it's big sister, Seattle, Bremerton struggles with some homelessness, drug use, etc.

Vacancy was less than 50% after he had four evictions in two months, the property still had a drug problem and he was in the process of evicting another tenant who had just moved in to replace one of his problem tenants.

Sorry forgot to list experimenting w drugs! 

Drug dealing and prostitution.Some parts are trying hard to become safe and nice again, but prices are higher there.In the 1950's Detroit was the "Richest City in the World", many of the relics of that time (those un-burned) remain, and today still sell in the million dollar category (once rehabbed).The Detroit of today, is a long way from Mayor Cavinaugh's Detroit:https://www.youtube.com/watch?

It seems that the combination of a poor U.S. economy combined with misinformation about the dangers of drug violence is really affecting business in Baja.

I don't know specifically what is missing from your property management lease, but some things I can think of off the top of my head (check your state laws of course to make sure they don't conflict with any of these):--no trampolines--no day care center or business where clients visit the home--rules about parking vehicles on the grass--septic agreement (if property has septic)--watering restrictions rules (if your county has them)--smoking rules--pet agreement--drug free housing addendum--mold addendum

Pair that w/ drug & alcohol abuse....well, I don't need to say much more.On top of that, you're dealing w/ code/permits, city policies, material delays/shortages, labor shortages, change orders, the weather, ect.   

Anyway, this drug on for 6 months and finally I agreed to go to the local landlord class, let her break her lease and give her $100 back from the pet fee.

He told me that one unit is vacant and the other is occupied by a couple drug addicts.
