Housing cooperatives can fill the void you're thinking about. We don't need landlords, they're just leeches on society.
I think landlords could exist with better regulation, lisencing needed to become a landlord, proof of maintaince etc. Currently all it really takes is to own something and post an ad.

I've never heard of housing cooperatives as a way to rent. If I'm renting from a co-op, aren't they my landlord then?
No, it's more like being a member of a union. Your cooperative owns the property, and everyone elects stewards to manage the property
