Call the town and explain that you're in an unsafe dwelling and check to see if there is a valid Certificate of Occupancy (C of O).

i try to cover everything because, like you said, they see me as great landlord. just last week i rented a gas log spliter, split lots of wood and build a firewood rack for one of my houses. this way they can have some wood for the firepit in the back yard.they never asked, but since i cut 2 trees earlier this year, i was tired of seeing the wood just rot away on the ground.

They also share water and gas meters.

Does the description of their breaking of lease and confirmation of us to either Rent/Sell the property to allow them to not be liable for monthly payments through the remaining months have validity of the issue in the first paragraph above?    

You should have a pro videographer film one of the seminars and edit it into a validating testimonial and informational video, for those who cannot attend a seminar but want to learn about it later. 

Is there any other costs that the owner has to pay vs the tenants, such as water, electric, gas, etc.?

Depending on how the lease was written, there is usually a valid reason to begin eviction proceedings after so many late rent payments (on mine, it's 3) so you might have been able to nip this in the bud.

Alissa, despite Greg's generally valid warning about Ontario, you can definitely find cash flowing deals in London.

Such as the roof needs to be completely replaced (there is a ridge sag and seems it could fail, rafters aren't place correctly), the porch needs a larger joist as its sagging down as well, the basement still has asbestos, the basement needs waterproofing as there is a moldy smell and minor water leakage, barely update the 1st floor unit, update and correct the electrical (relocate a fuse panel in a bathroom), brand new panels in the basement with a larger feed coming in, concrete steps in front and rear of house are in need of some repair, the boilers may need to be replaced, replace a few broken windows(completely shattered, just a piece of plywood covers them now), the lower roof gutters were nailed directly into the shingles, there are no GFCI's in any bathroom or kitchen, and a few other fixes.It would be an FHA 203k with 3.5% down$9,600 per year in taxesGarbage is included in taxes, tenants pay gas and electric, owner pays waterThe 1st floor unit is a 2/1 rented for $1225, they have exclusive use of driveway, backyard and the basement. 2nd/3rd floor unit is listed as 3/1, however there is 2 bedrooms on the 3rd floor with a bathroom.

I cannot comment of the validity of that but I will tell you that once I am comfortable with my local knowledge I will be investing in Indianapolis (wife's family area) and will find myself in the same boat as you.
