I'm renting half someone's basement right now in a situation like you're describing. I'm very grateful to them for the opportunity and am not surreptitiously destroying their home. I've actually done several repairs for them since I started living here. I've known them for a long time though so they knew they could trust me.
That's who I'd love to rent to. It's not about profit for me, but more I have property and I can rent for under value. People are freaking assholes though.
This video haunts me, I saw it originally years ago, this guy breaking down over what renters did to his property: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxIgGkA5tXM
Yea, I don't think I could ever rent something I owned to somebody I didn't know or even a lot of people I do know. Lots of people have no care for things that don't belong to them.
