      yeah that's what i was thinking

      only under late stage capitalism would investing in real estate be seen as self care

        becoming a landlord is self-care. if by self-care, we mean making other people take care of you or dying miserably.

          Taking on enormous debts to obtain a license to property so that you can police it on the investment bank's behalf.

            really you should diversify your risk by lighting the house on fire and claiming the insurance payout.

              I thought the new thing was just collecting application fees for a unit you never rent.

                sounds like work, showing people a fake apartment. needs more passive income.
