Hello,I am two weeks out from closing on a new property in ColoradoMy real estate agent just called me and told me that the sellers wanted to disclose something fairly odd...Apparently, one of the sellers is a heavy Adderall user (a schedule 2 prescription drug similar to meth).She stays awake for 2-3 days at a time and gets extremely paranoid and is currently convinced there are bugs all over the house and someone is hacking her computer.My worry is, that much like someone who is addicted to opiates may turn to heroin when they run out of a prescription, that someone addicted to amphetamines would turn to meth.When I did my due diligence, I was unaware of the mental state of the owner, but I did not notice any bad smells, and the place was fairly clean, so I don't think she was cooking meth.My due diligence period is over, so I don't think I can get a professional to to a test, but I have seen that there are test kits online.

Ever since I picked my first book "Think and Grow Rich", My mentality has shifted towards becoming financially free and independent. 

So if you know how to invest in the right amenities in the right locations that can significantly boost your revenue in addition to the location. ..I personally wouldn't switch to MTRs.

Knowing your area is the best way to get out of the "cold feet" mentality and start actively looking for deals.

(Personally, I don't know how CA, and especially Southern CA has done as well as it has for as long as it has, but I'll be the first to say I don't have the mentality of a 'normal' homebuyer.)On the MF side, there are huge incentives for outside money right now (Venezuela's inflation was between 700-1000% last year, and the folks/companies who made their money during the oil boom there need to get their money out of that as fast as possible) so they're happy to be able to park a couple million dollars in US Real Estate, even if it means losing a little bit of money (or making very little.)
