It is not permissible to rent out a house to a group of men and women, whether Muslims or non-Muslims, because it constitutes aiding in sin. It is also not permissible to work to collect these rents. However, there is no harm in renting out a house to non-Muslims for them to live in without impermissible mixing, because the landlord is not responsible for the tenant's unlawful actions for which the house was not rented.
