Same situation here, and I was surprised to learn that my city doesn't seem to have any rules against this.

So far most renters have been friendly or kept to themselves. Some were noisy, and some left dozens of cigarette butts on the sidewalk and street, and for the past couple weeks the place has been empty. No one has even come by to put away the trash bins.

The owner has over a dozen houses like this, and I really think it's a bad thing that these houses are not available to people who want to live in them.
