There's no smoke and mirrors or anything.

Let me know what you think.As a matter of information, smoking/vaping is prohibited inside our rental units.

That does not build confidence in investing in an area no matter how many friendly seals bark at you.Do L.A. and California lose carbon credits for all the noxious smoke?

Once the smoke clears there will be vulture investors doing yellow letters to the lot owners you can count on that. 

This is where smoke/CO detectors, grounding, electric garage door reversers, and other goodies came from.If the municipality performing the U&O calls out an item, Seller is stuck with resolving it either by fixing it or negotiating it with the buyer.

During the walk through, I met 2 roommates, while they smoked a joint on the back porch. 

To me it appears there is a lot of smoke being tossed around to try divert certain peoples attention.  

Landlords can enter a tenant's property for a variety of reasons, including: Making repairs or replacements Responding to a tenant's request Removing unauthorized window coverings Preventing waste of utilities Changing filters, testing, or replacing smoke detector batteries Inspections Helping with an emergency inside the unit Posting a notice of eviction"Research your state laws because some of your comments indicate a lack of understanding of the landlord/tenant laws where you are operating (like threatening the tenants to keep the security deposit if they don't respond to you, I doubt that is actually a valid reason to keep their deposit, or evicting for late payments, or charging the tenants for your warranty repairs because you missed your 11 month inspection window which was your responsibility, and it looks like your lease says you can charge up to 18% interest for unpaid fees, is that actually legal?).

Here's what I do....again it may be controversial, but there is such an enormous pool of tenants that have vouchers that I can do this and still have plenty of people...No smoking of any kind.....I don't care if you have a card that says you need "it" for medical reasons.No evictions, ever.No felonies in the last 5 years.No dangerous breed "animals" or pets  and when fully grown the pet can't weigh more than 20 lbs.They will pay for a background check through SmartMove that costs $40.00I don't care what "story" they have, I don't sign the RFTA package until they give me one full months depositI actually don't care what their credit score is because the housing authority pays most of their rent.I don't care about their oncome because the housing authority pays most if not all of their rent. 

Don’t skip safety stuff either—make sure you’ve got working smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and a first aid kit.
