I am looking to buy a home that has tenants who are basically dealing drugs out of the home.... how do I handle this???

Sometimes it turns out to be like a drug house with the boyfriends driving by 24 hours a day, parking on the front lawn, honking the horn, wanting to get something...On the other hand if it is three College guys...Did you ever see Animal House?

@David Goodman Nathan, That was probably more directed at me for talking about 'crazy' tenants.After spending 5 years here in D neighborhood world, where untreated mental illness is rampant, I've come to see 'mental health issues' as a spectrum and those people that are unwilling to seek treatment and that visit their 'issues' on their poor neighbors that can't afford to move, just have TO GO.

With the survey in hand you can then create a proposed site plan which would generally include the following : Building size and location on the property, Septic area along with septic repair area ( unless you are able to tie into a sewage treatment plant), Parking, Building setbacks, Storm water retention area if applicable in your area, Lot coverage %, Fire Hydrant located within a acceptable distance for fire trucks to have access to, sometimes a landscaping plan and a lighting plan may be required. 

DC had a period where the pop was high then decreased doing the drug epidemic but now is on the upside. 

No Special Treatment. 

@Nicole Obregon I did once where it was a case where the tenant had a very strong recommendation, a good job, and a believeable story about how their ex girlfriend scared them away with drug use, but when she got evicted he was evicted as well.

Is/was the tenant receiving medical treatment for mental illness?

He clearly has a drug problem.

Coffeyville KS is great if you don't mind the crime, drugs and prostitution.
