Without profit, you're asking for them to sell their labor and expertise for free. Profit is the compensation people gain for the risk of making an investment, for the time and expense of doing what is necessary to manage and actualize that investment, and their expertise in knowing how to do so properly.

Well, expertise is a very, very generous term to use for landlords in any way, shape, or form. And let's be real, for how much profit they make off of the labor of other people, them having to break a nail wouldn't kill anybody.

Depends on what they're doing. Rehabbing a house that has been trashed or abandoned and doing so in a safe and efficient manner takes work and expertise.

You mean when they're finally forced to hire a contractor?

Have you ever been a landlord? It feels like you haven't, and are just repeating buzzwords like "they dont work but get money!".

Sure sounds like you have.. have you tried getting fuxked lately?

Since when are facts buzzwords?
