A few thousand bucks in closing costs are a small price to pay for peace of mind and maintaining your integrity.Let us know what happens, and good luck.

The govt does not recommend using a mold inspector, but a lot of people get peace of mind from the reports they write.6.

Reality is once you receive the eviction approval from the Justice Of Peace - very few tenants will contest the Eviction further as tenant has to Post One Month rent as a Deposit to proceed, so you would receive the Additional Monies at end of the process. 

If you have a good one, then it should have something in there about not disturbing others, peaceful enjoyment of the building for all, etc.

In CA, it's pretty well known that a spike in usage pretty much equates a pot growing situation.Just make it hard for them to do it in peace, and get rid of them as soon as possible, is my advice.  

So, you gave up a little, but it should also have bought you some peace of mind.  

When you can call your attorney's cell phone at 2:00am after being arrested for jaywalking, that peace of mind is going to cost you.

What it usually boils down to is you providing a place that is habitable, and not entering the property constantly (quiet enjoyment) so that they can't enjoy their unit in peace.  

Do the tenants a favor and let them go peacefully.

@John T, Lots of good answers here, but in a nutshell, I'd- Screen your tenants as if your financial life depends on it - because it does- Have six months reserve for PITI - Not just for Freddy and Fanny, but for your peace of mind, vacancies, cap expenditures- Use your notices; If rent is due on first, enforce it second business day it is considered late, period.- Exercise your right as a landlord to advertise availability of unit the day you receive notice from tenant.
