How can I protect my property value? I own my home.
Neighborhoods around the country who have successfully dealt with rental
property have done so by organizing strong neighborhood associations.
Associations can do a number of things to help minimize the problem
including: reminding realtors or owners that single family dwellings
have limits on numbers of renters; reaching out to renters to invite
them to be good neighbors; and, if the problem becomes extreme,
presenting information to city departments or elected officials on
behalf of the entire neighborhood. For tips on how to organize, please
call the CAN DO Office at 389-3448.
I'm concerned that these big alcohol parties will turn potential buyers
away from my neighborhood.
Your neighborhood should report parties that have become a nuisance. If
a party is ongoing and causing a nuisance, contact the BRPD at 389-2000
or the EBRSO at 389-5000.
