Reply to comment by Jimmy_kong253 in Who here owns residential and rents it out? thinking of buying a two-family in Rahway as it is getting very cute there. by [deleted]

I live in a retirement community and some idiot (who owns several units) rented a unit to hoarders. The entire patio area is loaded with trash and it seems to be growing. The inside is loaded with boxes and junk up to the ceilings. It's an eye sore and lowers the property values.

Seems that the board and management can do nothing about it.

And that's the problem with some owners as long as you as the owner is getting the rent on time you don't care how it affects the community or the neighbors that have to live with your tenants year round. I'm not saying everyone that rents a house is bad of course. But slowly but surely we are becoming a nation of renters because the housing stock is being taken up by investment groups to turn into rentals and the only thing really getting built nowadays it seems is large apartments
