It sounds like you’re dealing with professional squatters, not the cockroaches who flee when you make noise.

This is because of the noise generated by I15.Property condition - Would you expect this property to rent for the same amount as a similar property in good condition?

a person who clearly has an axe to grind.  

Life is a grind, enjoy it.

Lost in the noise.

I would like to know the pros and cons of buying such a property like the vehicle noise, pollution, etc., Thank you!

Keep grinding!  

In that scenario, the proximity to the busy street meant that the house was heavily discounted, but since it was a house or two away from the busy street, it wasn't so noisy that it bothered tenants or created any other problems for tenants...Now, I do think there's a point where a street could be too busy...I probably wouldn't buy a house directly on a street that had a speed limit higher than 35 or 40 mph, and I probably wouldn't buy on a street with multiple lanes going in each direction--that's probably too much noise for a lot of tenants, and areas like that are often less desirable for tenants, anyway...I might consider it if it was in an A or B area and the house had a major discount, and the house was insulated well enough so that the noise didn't bother tenants....And, like you said--you have to consider parking and ease of access to that parking...you probably don't want tenants having to back out of a tight parking space into 45 mph two-lane traffic...Other considerations: will the tenants be all adults, or will the tenants be families with kids?

Her noise dog she needs to train it.

Step 2 is next - the grind.
