Get a real job idiot.

We had 7 units in a strata. All we wanted was to cover the mortgage, taxes and insurance. We kept the rents purposefully low, hoping to attract long term tenants. Quite frankly - tenants move when tenants move regardless of leases (you can't get blood from a stone in small claims.) They aren't rich like we aren't and what little rent we got didn't pay for the cleaning, painting and repairs that we had to do when they moved out. If it wasn't acceptable to me - it wasn't acceptable for my tennant. We scraped along for 7 years and finally had enough. We sold for what we bought them for. Landlord tenant laws are different everywhere - lots of people seem to think you are rolling in money if you are a landlord. Bottomline - We were too soft and feel we got taken advantage of - never will we do this again. If you can't afford your rent, don't be fooled you can't afford home ownership either -

I don't get why u just blame landlords.
You know what other countries are doing? Building multilevel longterm concrete compact apartment complexes.

What does US do? Nothing.

[–] Verat@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

We dont need compact apartment complexes, we have plenty of houses being hoarded by companies and landlords so they arent on the market and the few that are can have artificially high prices. There are "Cash for your house now!" signs everywhere where I live plus they keep mailing us too, and those are usually either landlords or house-flippers.

[–] sommerset@thelemmy.club -1 points 2 days ago

It's a multi faceted problem. There needs to be gov program to start building apt complexes . This will reduce demand on houses and drive prices down simultaneously

I'm telling you, those places are full of depression, conflict, traffic, ample(read: no) parking and those with all kinds of life struggles. People (the ones I know) need some space to maintain a healthy style of living. I can hear the lady yawning through the walls at my place. I yearn for a home with no shared walls sooooooo badly lol.
