It takes labor to maintain properties.

Labor that they (under-)pay someone else to do, using the money that we (over-)paid them for the privilege of paying the mortgage (plus profit) while receiving no ownership in return.

They don’t reside there, they don’t do any work there, and they didn’t even put up the money — the bank did.
