Renting to family and friends

[Horacio Gutierrez]

Hello, I heard from different real estate investors is not smart to rent to family and friends because you never know what issues could arise which could hurt the family or friend's relationship forever. My question how or what can you tell a friend or family member that wants to rent from you but you dont want to avoid issues in the future but also you dont want the person to be upset or take it personal because you cant rent to them. In other words what can you tell friends or family thst unfortunately you cant rent to them because "___"?
