I feel like landlord can be a real job, if you actually maintain and upgrade the property and charging a reasonable price. That’s different than a landowner who pays some schmuck to manage it for them, pays the manager shit and charges the tenants unreasonable sums simply bc they can.
Unironically like my landlord. He leaves me alone, I leave him alone, and my rent only went up $50 in the 3 years I’ve been here. He’s fixed 1 major issue in that time because I take care of my shit.
Personally, the less interaction I have to have with my liegelord landlord, the better.
But it doesn’t stop most of them from being money grabbing assholes. But the real problem is those speculative investment house flippers putting $10000 and a 6-pack into a home and marking it up 50%
I’ve been renting my entire adult life and I’ve required maybe six hours of effort from my landlords in that time. It would take thousands of properties to keep someone honestly employed full time managing them.
Idk people like you or me might not take up a lot of maintenance time but I had property manager previously who was also a landlord who was actually there all the time in a building of around 13 units doing actual work. He only had one other building as far as I know and kept pretty busy. But then, he wasn’t a “landlord” in the sense we’re discussing. He owned the buildings and maintained them.
Landlords should get a real job. Like day trader.
