Be real @Tara3 Being a landlord is a business.
Would you go to work for nothing? Would you go to a job where you are forced to work but your employer has stopped paying you and you can’t leave?
Would you run a shop where the customers can just walk out with the goods without paying, or run round and damage your stock, but the law says that’s ok?
That’s what it is like being a landlord with a bad tenant: they don’t pay, you can’t get them to leave and yet you still have to uphold your side of the bargain and do repairs/gas certs etc. Meanwhile, you are still paying the mortgage, insurance etc.
That is why landlords are careful who they let to: the law is so heavily weighted towards the tenant. (Not saying I disagree with that, mostly, because at the end of the day, it is someone’s home we are talking about and there are bad landlords out there, just as there are bad tenants).
And, you don’t know the personal circumstances of any of the landlord on here to judge them.
For example, my 80+yo mum with dementia is in a care home. She worked hard all of her life and owned her own home. We rent out her home for her to enable her to pay her care home fees. All of her money goes on those care home fees. Without the rent from the house, she couldn’t pay the fees and eventually, the state would end up paying them. She never claimed state benefits in her life and would be devastated not to be paying her own way now.
You really need to get that chip off your shoulder - if you don’t have anything constructive to say, just don’t say anything rather than making snidey comments!
