I recently was advised by my broker that in order to purchase an additional property in the future I had to pay down more debt (I have great credit, I work in the medical profession with great W2 income, etc etc). 

@Ethan Spielvogel A lot of my clients use Realty Medics and are pleased with them.

Was this in a tertiary market?

Some scammers are pretty smart and likable.Did the state have a medical claim on the house that is not recorded yet?

I have told them  I'll sue for hotel bills, travel and medical expenses as well as damaged property and floors... but I am holding off ONLY as I know these expenses and court costs will be paid for by my neighbours.The HOA board have finally offered $1700 for a $6000 claim in October 2018. 

@Lee Ripma Totally agree about El Sereno, it's right by USC's medical school and has had a solid increase in activity over the past 4 months, with CBRE purchasing a couple acres right in the center.

Its a reason why its known as one of the most shady industries(You can probably make a point for the banking and medical industry as well).

And most states are cool with medical marijuana.Michigan voted for it and North Dakota against it.

Usually it's a category like 'retail', 'warehouse', 'medical', etc.Are there certain traits or characteristics for a building to be deemed medical?

A couple questions I brought up was how can we protect it for them loosing to insurance companies or medical (nursing home) with declining health?
