If you are not renting from an individual, you are renting (likely) from a property manager and if that company has locations in other states, then you will not be allowed to grow.This is why I would not want to rent from individuals...you are paying this guy and he is living in the driveway? Individual property owners do not respect renters rights, would way rather deal with rental companies/corporations. Pay your bills and don't cause problems, they just leave you alone.
I know what you mean I live by a bunch of churchies and they don't like me either :)it was a very special place.
but there is so much turmoil that many longterm locals are upset enough to talk of getting rid of local police for BoCo Sheriffs and dissolving (how ever that's done) the municipality. Super vocal and vigorous anti-pot kick back right now. half the town seems to hate the other half

The apartment I live in is a owned by a multi-state corporation, and the other has a multi-state property management company.
Both leases have specific language that explicitly states that they do not allow consumption or even possession on the property, and that they refer to the US code and the illegality of marijuana at the national level. Since these are both private party transactions, I do not have any rights as a medical marijuana patient.
I would argue that the perfect landlord is one who lives out of state. It's getting harder and harder to find places that rent to growers. The few have ruined it for everyone else. Or, the perfect landlord would be yourself on your own property but I get that's not an option, even for me. I wish i had a farm.
I would not suggest voluntarily putting an eviction on your record, there are a lot of potential negative implications. No disrespect, but having a dog that is not allowed is not even in the same neighborhood as cultivating marijuana or openly consuming and/or possessing against the rules set forth by the landlord or the language in the lease. If you are still talking recreational, you are probably right, deny it til you die. However, I would not rent to a tenant who wanted to grow unless I had access to and the ability to inspect. I have seen too many dirty and dangerous things going on. I heard a hydro store selling multiple liters of bushload to a rec user who grew and also grew his own non-mj food. It was pretty alarming. Also, and although tenants don't like taking ownership, renters do not have the same respect for the property as the property owner, in nearly all cases. Obviously there are bad landlords and bad tenants, but openly defying the rules/lease of the place you live is not the right way to further our cause. Please understand I am not putting myself on a pedestal just discussing the multiple issues at hand. I don't have a dog in the fight but this is an interesting topicThat is honestly a really good point.
When renting, I don't see growing as a right, it is more like having a pet, it is really at the discretion of the property owner. Medical is a different issue, but I am thinking more on the recreational side. I prefer to rent from places that obviously don't really care much as long as the rent is paid and you don't cause complaints with the neighbors. That ideal individual property owner is pretty hard to come by.
I think the real plus side is that it is like having a dog in a no pets apartment, the worst thing that happens is you get kicked out, you don't wind up in jail.
That's right, the dog has much more potential to do damage to the property. lolNo disrespect, but having a dog that is not allowed is not even in the same neighborhood as cultivating marijuana or openly consuming and/or possessing against the rules set forth by the landlord or the language in the lease.
I'm glad you understand that cultivation is a privilege and not a right. I wish more tenants shared the sentiment.

Most insurance claims will be denied if growing is involved(read the fine print)so a landlord who ALLOWS someone to grow in their property also risks losing everything even if everything is up to code if their is a fire,flood etc. Not sure how that would work if the landlord was not aware of the grow?ignorance could be bliss in that case.Or landlords could make the changes themselves and offer rentals that have grow rooms with properly installed electrical upgrades, hard floors and ventilation ducting that exhausts through the roof. Sounds like a more expensive rent to me, just need to be prepared to accept cash. Adapt and thrive.:D
I have a real estate background, until Jan I had an employing broker's license. Every year the real estate commission makes changes to contracts (disclosures, regs, etc.....) addressing emergent issues. I would look for the RE industry to introduce a "grow house" disclosure before to long.
Same here. I will never be a landlord again. He DESTROYED the home. We weren't able to take the time to handle all the damage he did ourselves, we had to hire someone local who did a very good job. Dude skipped out and we couldn't find him, so I couldn't even get the judgment against him (you know I would have, too).I had a grower fubar a rental of ours a few years back and it cost 15k to fix it,if i didnt do all the work myself would have been 30k.I got a judgement against him but he never paid a dime of it and he has been calling lately because he wants to buy a home with his new wife but the judgement is fucking him from getting a Loan,I told him pay me my money and all is forgotten but so far nothing.
I'm curious why you let your broker's license go.I have a real estate background, until Jan I had an employing broker's license.

Because I hate buyers, sellers and realtors........ and I don't give a fuck about your kitchen.
and I've never been hungry enough to overcome those issues and be the whore it takes to be a good realtor.
I have been building a friendship with the commercial broker helping me buy my property and am considering getting into the commercial side, which I should have done instead of residential.
