Wouldn't bother me in the least to live in the house right next to it.
Why not stop over and ask a few of the residents already there or the PM to see if they get questions/issues about it?
Are you looking at purchasing? Have the financials for it? The vacancy rates and rental rates should reflect any problems attracting/keeping people there.

I can't see any reason to let this bother you. If you try hard enough you can probably find someone out there who wouldn't want to live in the place because of that, but I doubt it would be any higher than the percentage of people who didn't want to live there because of any other silly reason.
I often hear friends and associates (many who live in old homes) talking about how they'd never live in a place where someone had died... odds are they already do. People get old, and they die, and many of them die at home. I once heard a neighbor making that remark, and I knew for a fact that the prior homeowner had died at his kitchen table (he was in his 90's, it happens) -- I didn't bother popping that balloon for my new neighbor.
