@Jason Timmerman - You might want to be more careful about what you post in a public forum.

They are both in poor/bad health and need a lump sum to pursue some experimental treatments.

Money and great health is everything in this life.

Try public records.

Put them up on public, non-business corners and intersections.

Deducting rent for repairs needs the local Board of Health to certify the problem, the landlord must receive in writing the violations and landlord is given five days from date of notice to begin repairs or contact a company to perform repairs and there is a cap to how much rent can be deducted.

A landlord in Chillicothe Ohio lost her house as a public nuisance due to her tenant selling drugs out of her house.

Call the local Board of Health and report the upstairs tenants/owners.

However, I am really unsure on the approach to investing in properties that have been deemed unsafe by the County Board of Health.

Is there public sewer nearby
