It just really bothers me that TTS never saw that as an issue.What is the right path?

Also, if you bother to look through the threads you'll see a letter from the Indiana Attorney General's office stating that the license of Oceanpointe Investments has been permanently revoked.

Still bothers me that mold fear mongering has gotten so out of control this is what it has come to, but that is apparently the way it is. 

(considering the fact that i never done any real estate digging or attempting to understand the field until Jan 1st 2018 and never bothered to talk to anyone or ask anyone questions other than answer questions)

Realistically they should just buy the property completely (not assign) letting the owner know if they listed they would get more, but if they don't want to bother listing (some people really don't care) then buy it close on it and resell it (wholesale). 

@Michael Ablan: I am almost speechless at how many investors/landlords don't bother to learn what the "LAW" really says about this issue.

So far I haven't had any complaints from the tenants.Moral of the story...don't bother with physical traps or calling an exterminator; go with the poison pellets straight away.

I see this metric of gross income should be 3x or 4x rent and cannot see how this can possibly be useful other than a preliminary "should I even bother looking at this app".I think a more useful metric would be to use net income which you can calculate by looking at their credit report.

Don't bother your neighbors.

That is, some tenants turn out to be TERRIBLE--damaging the property, constantly bothering the super about issues created by the tenant, etc.
