The whole "dangerous grow house" gambit is just the latest in a dying cause.
Exactly how I read it. Another "tired tactic" and now they've got
Growers are increasingly buying homes, and in some cases entire blocks are devoted to the lucrative business.
What are the real estate peole mad about? Sounds like they would welcome the sales.
And insurance rates "could" go up, not "will".
Trial balloon.

And a thought...
Police say there are at least 50,000 houses in Canada that are now used exclusively to grow marijuana...
Is this "guesstimation" or fact? If the police know the number of houses being used why are they still allowed to function? Shouldn't they be closing them down in the "war effort"?
It sounds as if they're saying "We know they're there, but we aren't going to do anything besides bitch about 'em".

The only just laws that they are breaking are local zoning ordinances.

I find it just a bit interesting that pot is so lucerative under prohibition that folks are willing and ABLE to buy up whole blocks (contributing in huge ways to local economies) and no one seems to know who they are....
