Visitor and son in rented complex (11)

I believe the answer is:

nonresident

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'visitor and' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'son in rented complex' is the wordplay.
'complex' is an anagram indicator.
'son'+'in'+'rented'='soninrented'
'soninrented' with letters rearranged gives 'NONRESIDENT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for nonresident that I've seen is " Daytime visitor to hotel".)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
