The house is in some stage of foreclosure process, and i know there's at least one lien for $10K on it for the chain-link fence that was put up around it by the city, and I know that the previous owner has taken some equity out of it before he split to Mexico.From some research, it was one of about 7-10 houses this one "therapist" purchased in LA and Long Beach area over the years - i found at least 5 that have gone into and have already sold through foreclosure auctions - and the houses were used for both drug and mental illness rehab, as well as advertised themselves as AIDS friendlyAre there some red-flags in pursuing such a property?

Ill would be happy to connect to get more ideas. 

What I do is compliment telling them I could never tell they needed a service animal (or emotional support animal for mental illness)  so I will have to ask for that letter to be fair to all the other tenants that have to pay deposits and extra rent for their pets.

Ill always maintain a place in the Bay Area because you cant beat the weather and I have roots there.

If my opinions change, ill be the first to point it out.

When he was 4, he was part of a group that were clowns for terminally ill children in hospitals...and it just progressed from there.

If there's no inspection and there is a problem that gets discovered later, then there could be be ill feeling between you and the F.I.L. and that would get super awkward.

You will ALWAYS have poor with you, whether it be laziness, lack of skills, illness, or some other factor.

I work for the university of Maryland and beginning of next week Ill be at the location downtown so I will go by and find out about the list.Im not worried to much about what the value you of the property is I guess I want to see if there is anything worth holding onto if I have to foreclose.

Ill see you around the site, and maybe in real life!
