Whether it's due to personal ties or their upbringing, emotions can get in the way of rational thought and analysis.

We were approached with this and I initially thought it would be a great fit, but went home and got chewed out about the toxic chemicals and liability. 

I've always thought that so long as the intent is there, the details can be corrected after-the-fact in a lot of cases (not all).

It's a good idea but it's like anything else in a lease - you have to be prepared to evict if they don't carry/keep it.

Any thoughts on how to handle this?
