Neighbor to SFR insists on being involved in screening process

Hi there,

I closed on my sixth buy and hold rental recently, and had my first Open House for it this past weekend. Today, I received  multiple calls from the next door neighbor, and he is insisting on having a say in the tenant selection because he "wants to make sure he gets good neighbors." 

I don't actually owe this guy any of my time, right? He wants to know who came to the open house, when they plan to move in, and all kinds of things that are none of his business. Just wanted to see if anyone out there has ever come across something similar before.
