No Landlords on Lemmy I imagine

Edit: *greedy. No greedy landlords on Lemmy

I have a few rentals. Only one of them was purchased as a straight up investment. The others were just the places where I used to live. I also have a job. Theaye posts are honestly pretty childish. I rent my places out more or less at cost, and often take applicants who are seen as too risky by most landlords (I basically guarantee my own rentals, because I don't really need the cash flow). I see it more as community service than a revenue stream.

That's why I just think this shit is childish. Almost everyone I rent to is in no position to buy. I guess they'd just be homeless without landlords. I've had people who have literally been turned down 50 times, who were living in their car, and broke down crying when I told them I'd rent to them without a co-signer.
