The benefit of renting is that when shit breaks, maintenance fixes it so that you don’t have to muddle your way through trying to replace the oven or some shit. Also you don’t have to do yard work. A good landlord is one who understand that his job is to provide housing and maintain the property, and not sit on his ass collecting passive income/hoarding wealth.
You can also up stakes and leave if something goes horribly wrong, and not repeatedly rebuild your house because of natural disasters or be stuck living next to the worst neighbor in history because you still owe $200k on the dirt you’re anchored to.
There is no such thing as a good landlord. There is no benefit of renting in capitalism. It is strictly exploitative. Go away with your bourgeois drivel
I like our landlord.
He lets me into his pool, I offer my IT skills for their upkeep.
He keeps the rent relatively low.
Everyone is more or less happy.
So: You are wrong.
Edit: For the downvoter. Stay mad at your shitty landlord. But not everyone is a horrible landowner and human.

There is no such thing as an ethical landlord under capitalism. You’re fighting for a class you don’t belong to.
