[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two things. There is renovating a house to make it look bland and unappealing. That’s always a bummer, Especially when part of AU Park’s character is that most of the houses look the same. Then there is the separate issue of whether it becomes a rental and rental families live there I used to rent with my family in AU Park. I am willing to bet we paid more in rent than you are paying on your mortgage, OP. We were good, quiet neighbors with solid jobs. We were there for several years. I have sympathy with the idea of living in a neighborhood where everybody is transient, but there are plenty of long-term rentals in that area, and DC in general is kind of transient anyway. Hopefully there are enough settled families in that neighborhood for OP’s comfort. [/quote]

Completely.  Back when we rented, we took excellent care of our places.  I always updated the paint (with permission) -- and I had spent summers working as a painter for a contractor, so always a professional job and an appropriate color.  I am handy, so often small repaired issues without ever bothering the owner.  I have treated all my homes the same, whether I owned or rented.  I would hope most professionals renting in AU Park would as well.[/quote]
