Newer HOA's tend to address the issue with minimum rental lengths, or in some cases a total ban.

And best of all, because of this reason, I’ve never had an issue with collecting rents or vacancies thanks to the location.It really comes down to the location, the team you assemble and your research. 

Has anyone else solved this issue by using some sort of insulation you can put between the joists in the ceiling to minimize the footstep/moving around noises you inevitably hear daily? 

As a side note, I know there can be some issues with a landlord "acting as a utility company".

I'm told the issue is that it's hard to not step into "practicing" real estate when you're trying to share information about the property that you have under contract.

The issue is she is very difficult.
