I’m trying to help you understand. You want to insult me, and make moral arguments outside the scope of basic economics.

wtf. You people are nuts.

The only reason why he doesn’t have enough is because people like you have too much.

This should be satire.

Of course it is. If it wasn’t, I wouldn’t be able to sell it, take the money and invest in something else.

Oh, a utopia. Where everyone works for free.

Yea, and if he had just sold the property in the first place there wouldn’t have been a house to rent at all.

The renting part isn’t even that bad, the owning part and selling for profit is the problem.

What are you talking about? I buy a house for $200k in 2012, real estate market goes crazy and now my house is worth $500, selling it for market value iis… wrong?

This is like saying that if everyone had a small business it would destroy the economy. If you think a rental damages the economy, you have no idea what the economy is, or how it works.

Of course they do. Imagine that all of the landlords decide to start removing rental properties from the market if their tenants move out. What do you think that does to housing availability over the next 10 years?

The product/service is the use of the property for the specified time.

How is this any different from renting a SeeDo for an hour?

And if everyone did this when they were able to, rents across the board would be dirt cheap.
