Having been in the Navy and to some places where hygiene and food safety is more of a suggestion than a rule, I think it's something of a cultural thing.

Talking to Planning, Building & Safety and Public Works at the city. 

It's a safety issue.

In a Subject To, There is NO safety for the seller.

There are safety inspections and safety measures that need to be done aside from just picking up the mess. 

I have a handful of my employees tried to make false injury claims, but they could never win, since my safety program has an embedded clause that they had not sustained injury during last weeks work, and when it is time for me to do a closeout on the project, they had to sign that the job was done and completed thereby no more work is left for them, this prevents them from collecting unemployment and making false injury claims.Anyway, I won't tell you what you must do to constitute right path, but I will give a scenario where it could go south, what you do with the thought is up to you.

“Safety comes in numbers”Also, in my opinion you should NEVER invest what your can’t comfortably afford to loose.You are 100% correct about prices increasing over the years.The answer is quite simple.

The property was close to the ocean and a forested area, so flood and fire hazard, they said.So I went looking for a new company with no success.

Talk real estate and safety if they're talking license plates. 

I strongly suggest adopting multiple investment strategies as a safety net in case a single short-term rental (STR) approach doesn't work out.
