[quote=CA renter] If they think of you as the nice family who are always friendly and waving to them, then if there is ever a problem, you can nicely mention it to them, and they will be much more likely to try to fix things as best as they can.[/quote]

In a near perfect world I would agree with you CAR. But given that I just moved out of a community that was on the order of 90% renters, to be honest I’ve learned to play hardball.

Again, not all renters are bad, most aren’t.

But I will tell you that in my previous community, with the influx of renters came pit bulls, drugs and drug dealers, crime and much more police attention.
