The fact that Philadelphia is a so called "sanctuary city" for illegal immigrants may play a part in this terrible way of just letting anyone break-in and stay wherever they choose, without consequences to them and with no regards for the taxpaying property owners. that's really lopsided. it goes beyond tenant friendly state and it actually gives people a good reason to either not be a landlord here or just abandon ship altogether ...onward to another state, imo.Kudos,Mary

At the same time the US has continued to see positive net immigration levels, and those individuals are more commonly drawn to the biggest metro areas for opportunity and assembly in community (ie there are Vietnamese communities where you don't have to speak English in the SF area, but not so much in Waco, Texas).

The reason for this post is I have recently moved to Orange County, California from the UK and am hoping to start a Property Management company for Single/Multi family residential units as well as vacation rentals.
