Even you know you’re wrong with how you use “should” and “good”. It means you know many don’t do these things and you justify the whole by the exceptions.
I know people like to shit on landlords, but owning and properly maintaining a home requires a ton of work and money. You SHOULD be spending 1% of your homes value on maintenance each year, which many people don’t/can’t budget for.
A GOOD landlord takes care of that mess for you.
I know several people who sold their homes and moved into apartments because they were sick of the hassle of home ownership.
Don’t get me wrong, I have no plans of doing that myself, but the ever growing list of maintenance tasks is getting exhausting.
Also your anecdotes are terrible. I know way more than several people who would do mostly anything to own a home and when surveys show “…(88%) would rather own their home than rent, nearly half of those who currently rent fear they’ll never own a home.”
