Your mistake is in framing landlord as a job.
Try your hand at maintaining a property other than your residence. I sure as hell can't keep up with my own home, let alone another.
You'll be downvoted but you're correct. Being a (good) small time landlord for affordable housing is a full time job as well as basically being on call 24/7. Unfortunately when a corporation does it, it has the power to bleed everyone dry.
Well my landlord is some foreign company, they pay a local maintenance company which manages the apartment. Of course the costs come back to me as the renter. Now the landlord gets free money just because they had enough cash to buy the apartment in the first place. And when they are done printing money, they'll just sell the apartment for more than they bought it before.
Why don't you buy a condo?
