I always made it a point to rent from small landlords and to leave the place better than I found it when I rented. Just like when I go to sell, I will sell at under the market value(just like I bought), and will know the buyer.

Landlords do damage on a societal level, they serve absolutely zero purpose except to extort profit from those who are not as financially accomplished as they are.

Landlords extort by charging a fee to live in a residence that is large enough to generate profit, by generating profit off of a living quarters, they inflate the prices of properties in an area, in turn the people who can only afford to rent in our credit-based lending system get further priced out by the increasing cost of homeownership because the cost of housing is being artificially inflated by landlords and their sick obsession with "passive income."

It's very similar to the patent system chaining innovation by incentivizing the parsing of technological innovations to better serve the patent holders R&D payout.

Perhaps you believe our economic system is a meritocracy where wealth is accumulated based on who deserves it, but I have not yet met a deserving wealthy person- a few entitled ones. If anything, it serves the most exploitative first and the amoral next.

Welp, that’s capitalism. Love it, leave it, or burn it to the muthafuckin’ ground. :flame:

The only landlords that will be left in the future will be the hedge funds.

:whathesaid:
Landlords do what every other business person does. Make money where they can

Never met a wealthy person that deserves to be wealthy? I guess you’ve declared yourself judge of who deserves to be wealthy then and that’s a little fucked up and pompous of you. Your attitude will likely leave you suffering a series of life long defeats unless you change it

I think OP, Anon #13, and you all have valid points. There are huge systemic cracks in the USA that are only getting worse. Ethics and morality are definitely hinderances to making money. Rent and the monopolization of real estate are real problems that will get much worse within our lifetimes. And as you mentioned, you can’t really blame the small landlords on the individual level for trying to make a buck. Like I said, the tendency to monopolization of industries and asset classes will eventually render (probably sooner than we think) the small landlord obsolete.

The small landlord will always exist

You can rage against the machine all you want, but it's much more efficient to find your place inside the machine start changing it from the inside out

(I'm pretty sure this won't make much sense to most here but that's cool)

Theres a lot of homeless people in society and our population is increasing. I would think that building new houses would be a good path to choose if i were in OPs shoes. Im halfway through building my own house, also halfway through my life.

I am a small landlord, I've ran my real estate and construction company for the last 16 years, have made myself completely independent, and do a lot of work for another landlord with over 100 properties.

What the fuck have you done to be able to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about?

I think this is one of those situations where it's genuinely hard to see from both sides of the fence. Like politics, it's divisive because there's more than one right answer. Except that everyone sucks sometimes. I think that is what people tend to try to get at even though you can only talk about your problems by being somewhat specific, and people always are looking to get butthurt by the truth. *cough cough*

My “modicum of experience and stupid little business” will generate about $175000 in profit this year and that’s generated by just myself so yeah, I probably have no idea what I’m talking about
:liottalol:

How has your knowledge and experience paid off for you this year?

How smart can you possibly be, arguing with me here anonymously on a drugz forum. Maybe use some of that money to enroll in adult education and possibly a rehab facility

:haha:

We’ll aren’t you just full of assumptions!
This isn’t an argument anymore than you think it is. I thought we were discussing things
I’m getting paid while I do this because my life is setup to have the freedom to do that

Better take a look pal, your jealousy is showing

Nobody is jealous of you.

You’re an incredibly sad person to me. Look at how and where you’re seeking validation.

All that money still couldn’t buy you an actual friend.

This dumbass obviously knows too much to be able to learn anything and is likely just here to troll the poasters that will let him.

I'm just chiming in because it's my personal observation that #14 is likely a broke dick that always blames his problems on others or the world in general.

Try taking some responsibility for your own situation and perhaps you can respect others more genuinely.

I have more money now, in my late 30’s, than it’s likely you and your children will ever earn in your entire lifetimes. My net worth is many times over that of the contractor who I was speaking to.

You people of middling success who equate everything with money really crack me up. I’m wealthy enough and educated enough to be aware of how it all actually works. You’re living off my crumbs. That’s a point of pride for people like you.

You are incorrect junior.

I made my first million before I was 24, with nothing more than my ability to convince the wealthy to spend some money.

You have proven that you have no clue what you're talking about and you have also strongly suggested that you are a full of shit, because if you really did have any assets to speak of you likely would understand the basic principles of business in a capitalist economy and wouldn't be bashing small time landlords so hard.🤡

In reality I would bet you're just butthurt about the evection moratorium being lifted.


Please pull your head out of your ass and ask yourself if your post makes you sound like an unbelievable douchebag before you press that button.

I hope you’re managing other people’s money better than you’re punctuating and spelling these posts of yours. :lol:

Does your secretary do the correspondence for you at work? Your writing wouldn’t inspire my confidence.
