Hello BP community, I purchased my first rental property (a duplex) a few months ago and I'm trying to rent out one of the units (I'm househacking), but the neighbors directly across the street are like those wanna-be gangsters that hang outside in their front yard all day and literally it's scaring away all my prospective tenants (SUPER annoying!).

It's actually a good neighborhood and really developing, but it's just this one house that is making renting out the unit almost impossible.

I've thought of a couple ideas, but instead of trying to reinvent the wheel I'm curious to hear from others who have gone through this similar situation and what you were able to do to "fix it" to get a unit rented. I'm now going on 2 months vacant and can't keep affording to pay the PITI on my own. Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
