But just be honest. Describe things that occur to you and provide actual frequency to it, e.g. "just over the last year, this is what I have had to deal with (or whatever time period those events have occurred). If the problems are that bad, no exaggeration or hyperbole is required to make the problems felt. If you have to exaggerate them exponentially, then maybe the problem isn't that bad. My take is the problem is very bad for her, just be honest in what you relate.
OK, full disclosure, I have had absolutely no problem with it. All the homes that are in my neighborhood are $1 million+ properties and unlikely to be considered a good investment for STRs.

So now, honestly, why can't I empathize with fellow Villagers in the situation she described. Honestly, why does it have to be my personal experience to relate the angst of others? Honestly, even if she exaggerated, does that mean the problem is not real???
