[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I'm not as crass as the 1st poster who said renters are 2nd class citizens, I much, much prefer to live next to owners. Mainly because they take better care of their yards (not always the renters fault, but the combo of landlord + renter normally means it doesn't get done as nicely) and because they stay longer. Previously I lived in a condo where renters moved out every 6mo-1 year. It was frustrating that no one stayed long enough to become good neighbors and they didn't care about the property or community like the owners. [/quote]

On average this may be true. We are also renters who have lived in our place for 5 years. There are many other renters like us where we live. In fact, renters are on the board of the condo assoc! So while you maybe right on the average, it's not always true that renters are transient and unaccountable. [/quote]

NP here.  There are renters on your board????  That is very odd.  It makes no sense, in fact, as they are just playing with other people's money.  We have a lot of renters that are fairly permanent, but many owners still look down on them, and they certainly can't vote on issues.  [/quote]

I assume they are non-voting but participate in planning social events or helping with facilities and other projects.[/quote]
