Here’s the play:Price: set a walk‑away number, then use an escalation with a cap tied to comps and in‑place rents; pair it with an appraisal‑gap limited to what you can comfortably cover.Terms: bigger EMD, short inspection period not waived, but prebook inspector and key specialists; ask for seller disclosures up front and use inspection to negotiate only for health/safety or structural.Lender: include DU/LP or pre‑underwrite letter, fund your reserves, and show shorter close with an ordered appraisal slot.Search: add adjacent submarkets with similar tenant bases where days‑on‑market are a touch longer; have your agent call the listing agent before writing to learn hot buttons and tailor.

And now next is health insurance.

The market is mechanism of exchange of wealth from the ignorant too the informed. 

They can gaslight you, but that is just a distraction.They actually sell wipes to detect pot residue on walls, but I am not sure if they work and I would not spend the time or energy in engaging in establishing "proof" - you'll put up walls and they'll just dig more tunnels.Instead, I would:Contact their case worker ASAP, cite the behavior as a lease violation with her, and state that in addition to it being a breach of lease, it is creating health concerns for your family.
