Some neighbors annoy dwellers with inadvertent tasks such as using other's parking lot in an apartment or exploiting out side facilities of his neighbor. A well-behaved neighbor does not give permission to himself to use other's possessions without any approval. This attitude might motivate one to help even more than what his neighbor wants to borrow. For example, when one wants to use the bike of his neighbor, he might get his car instead.
Lastly, a generous neighbor is one who helps his neighbor in hard conditions. He knows about the requirements of his neighbor and would be pioneer to solve them. He lends some money to his miserable neighbor or even with no any expectation consent to borrow his possessions.

In conclusion, a good neighbor should be a nice people who does not disturb his community, be a polite one to obtain permission to use other's possessions, and also be a generous in helping other tenants. The importance of being a good neighbor is so high that there are several legal rules to protect the neighbor's right in all countries.
