Not American.

Our colleges and universities are free. There is no student athlete industry over here.

So if your taxes pay for education shouldn't they pay for basic housing? One of these is required for life, isn't this taught in university?

You didn’t answer my question:

If I inherit an apartment, am I allowed to rent it or should I sell it to not become a landlord?

What part of landlords should not exist did you not understand?

So what should I do with the inherited apartment?

If I sell it to someone, they might become a landlord, which is bad.

Should I sell it to the city? Will they buy it?

Is it better if I gift it to my kid and keep it emtpty for 10 years until they need it? Then I’m not a landlord, because I don’t own multiple properties.
