Sorry OP, not everyone is as much of a sourpuss as you when it comes to hating landlords. I understand that the problem is not with landlords that own a second or even third house, but with people and corporations that own 5+ houses. They are the ones that are hoarding the stock and using it as a “get, rich, quick” investment scheme. You want to be mad, then atleast be mad at the right people.
Sorry you can’t afford a house OP, but I’m not okay with you demonizing regular people that have worked their asses off to be able to afford a second house, and rented out their starter home. Does that make me “fucking love” landlords? No, it just means I’m being a rational fucking adult about it.

ITT: The 99% fighting over the scraps that the 1% leave behind, whilst doing their best to fuck over one another.
Passive income. Equity. Financial security. Something you can take a quick loan out against without worry that you’ll lose your home.
I mean you can easily argue “greed” about everything. For example: Why do you need a bigger paycheck (besides greed)? Any answer you give, I can conveniently waive away as you not living within your means. I mean, you could easily buy or build yourself a tiny home and live on a cheap plot out in the boonies. Oh, you want amenities? Accessibility to the convenience of a town/city? What could you possibly want with any of those material wants (besides greed)?
I think the reason is “I don’t want to have to work until I die” actually.
Investment property is one of the few remaining ladders of social mobility. Does it suck that it doesn’t extend down far enough? Yes. But removing it as an option just further widens the gap between the billionaires and everyone else.

Fuck me for wanting financial stability, I guess.
My landlord has only this one second apartment and never responds unless we refer to laws and work with deadlines.
I love it, that’s a real landlord it is.
…and they are a shitty person. Sorry dude. I won’t defend them lol.
You contradicted yourself. Op can’t get a starter home but the starter home he would have bought is held hostage by the “smol” landlord. Pick one.
“Held hostage.”. Fucking lol. I didn’t contradict myself at all.
Where did the landlord get the starter home? What if the seller refused to sell but just rent out instead what would he do then?
Ok
Thank you for understanding.

There’s no good reason (except greed) not to just sell the “starter house”.
