If it's A or B class in an A or B neighborhood, then I'd likely assume those tenants were a fluke...but, if it's C class or lower, it might be a sign that this property, and this neighborhood, attract some pretty shady characters (and that's a problem that I don't want to deal with for any amount of money). ...based on your description, it sounds like it's C class or lower...Regardless of what you decide to do, there's probably a LOT you can learn from this situation, so it's worth taking the time to figure out what lessons can be learned (probably lessons about location & property selection, tenant screening, PM management, etc.)
