[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately most renters aren't as thoughtful as you, most could care less about the property and they simply make the area look bad. I live in a nice area with higher price homes and you can easily tell which homes are rentals. Sorry but it's true.

Renters, at least older ones, are typically either poor or have other troubles. The renters relying on government aid are the worse. Sorry but White Trash is alive and well in most communities. [/quote]

I've owned a home for the last 20 years, and was a renter between houses for 6 mos last year.  No way did I take care of the rental property like I do my own home.  I didn't treat it like shit, but the things you do as an owner you just don't do as a renter.  For example, for the 10 years I've had full yard service - mowing, chemicals, weeding, mulching, etc.  Between kids and spouse working, there just was no time to do it.  In the rental, I did the bare minimum - cut once a week.  That's a $150/mo bill versus a $300/mo bill.  And it sure as hell is eveident to anyone who walks by.  [/quote]
