There are blacklist laws that protect a tenant in the case of an eviction (painful process). 

= my fault Have I given them too much leeway and now it's causing excess stress on my part = my faultdid I buy a property in a warzone that attracts tenants with little to no redeeming qualities and I'm not willing to put up with the pain?

Showers really need doors to protect the floor and doors are a pain to clean.

I'm looking at two properties, one is a few blocks from that intersection north and the other is more towards Max's Seafood. 

If all 33 landlords joined together and shared a legal team, you may be able to either block it from taking effect, delay it for a long time, or bankrupt the HOA fighting it. 

(this property is about 4 ish blocks away from it) Is it hard to get tenants into a property near a prison?

(We passed the annual inspection for her house about 2 months ago, it's a superb property with absolutely nothing wrong with it, the mice simply prefer to move indoors when the weather turns cold)As a policy we have placed bait-blocks for tenants behind the fridge/stove and in the basement for free, we even place them annually as part of our Fall Inspection where we check the home and most importantly the furnace.Bet you can't guess that when we didn't show up at her house on Saturday or Sunday she kept up the frantic voicemails to our company system...and the best part is when we showed up with bait blocks on Monday (our next scheduled work day for the crew AND WAAAAYYYY ahead of the 14 day timeline we allow for non-emergency repairs) the tenant refused bait blocks in the home since she has children in the home (who access the back of the refrigerator and stove I guess, no basement in this house).I'd like to assemble a list of what LaPlante does NOT handle, so we can direct tenants to that section when they ring our phones...

Their payments have been painful and in parts. 

My daughter is in a 2 bed 2 bath with a roommate 2 blocks off of the engineering buildings and her half is $900/month + electric and water.  

@Adam Rothweiler As Account Closed has pointed out, unless you have a very high threshold for pain, I would highly suggest against acquiring this property.
