Would you lease a part of your strip center to a head shop (tobacco shop that sells pipes, vapes,  and related items)?

The Vape shop 'went up in smoke' financially, but the hairdressing salon has expanded & the young kid who started it alone now has 9 chairs with as many stylists & needs to expand. 

2 Door TonyHi Tony,Perhaps advertise it as smoking/vaping allowed and charge, for instance, an extra $50 a month and see if you get any takers.

It looks like I will have to take them to (small claims) court, after I submit a PRA request for and receive pertinent information.Now I feel like a fool as in the last 10 years the LBUSD has been provided 2.7 BILLION dollars from two bond measures on the ballot.

Most targets right now are Dollar stores, Auto stores, banks, medical (Davita & Fresnuis), pharmacy, corporate national QSR,etc.What is out are gyms, mom and pop tenants QSR, small franchisees QSR, vape shops, mattress stores, vitamin stores, etc. 

I do not use any payment software as I didn’t see the need for one rental.For background I used smartmove through bigger pockets.Lease agreement the county property is in has a standard one and I wrote a rules and regulations addendum to it for things like who mows lawn, who to contact in an emergency, no smoking, vaping....

My requirements were credit score of 620, must have combined income of 3X rent, no smoking or vaping anywhere on the property and, a small dog over 2 years old and under 20 pounds would be considered with additional rent. 

The bottom image shows the vape pen/e cigarette that was on the window sill.I texted the tenant, who denied everything and insisted that he never vaped or smoked in the room.

Just like a vitamin store, vape shop, etc.

Find someone clean and healthy, with no pets, and doesn't vape or smoke unless you personally are fine with this.
