Why do anything and sell for a profit then? And owning rental properties is work. A lot of work. And you're wrong about the 1% thing
Yeah but see if you stock the grocery store shelves, you're profiting off the hard work of the people who actually made the food...so you're scum!
Is it really a lot of work? I've rented for about 10 years of my life, and I've only seen maintenance get done maybe 4 times. The work was just hired out (probably the cheapest they could find). I've had to do all the rest of the work that needed done myself.
