Sometimes renters land in a friendly neighborhood who welcomes renters, sometimes not. My family member who comes occasionally was warmly embraced by her neighbors, and another house she owns is in a neighborhood where the neighbors hate renters. I have renters who live across the street from me, and I knocked on their door to welcome them. Now we hang at my fire pit and gold together.

My suggestion is if you can scope out a neighborhood before you pull the trigger on a property. Find the community’s Facebook group and join that. You will probably get a really good sense of it there.
