Things like this are the final transition into a service society, the slow and gradual abolishment of private property. If you sell something the only way you can have control is if they need to repair or buy another, under a rental you have far more power over the person renting.
This is the gradual enslavement of society. Things being taken away from you, only to be given back temporarily and if you follow the rules and obey your overlords.
Many Canadians are totally on board with this. "Everyone should be renting!" and "No one needs half an acer of grass!" are fully indoctrinated into them. They don't even seem to realize that they are advocating for either total corporate, or total government ownership of all land, all because they think a man who owns four houses and rents three of them is the devil incarnate.
The "all landlords are evil" deal is kinda funny to me. Mostly because almost all of their complaints have nothing to do with the single person/family owning extra homes and renting, but the big corporations that are just going to replace the small people. Getting rid of landlords won't suddenly make these people able to achieve home ownership, they'll just have to go to a larger, less accessible entity for the same thing.
Yeah they think they hate the landlord now, wait until it's all corporate. I have a property manager because they are out of state and I really don't want to deal with phone calls and rent collection. Still, it's my business and I do all the business side. Rent increases? I prefer to go easier on that if the tenant isn't a pain in the ass. It's easier for me that way. Property manager doesn't always agree (they get paid in percentages), but they don't have the final say. Maintenance? These are my houses and I'm kinda picky.
A megacorp it's just another balance sheet line. Rent will follow market exactly. Maintenance the bare minimum garbage. It will be like a home warranty company managing that stuff, my current personal house had some prior home warranty repairs. They were beyond shit. Not to mention things like if you own enough of the market you can manipulate prices more. It's just more fuel to bitch about evil landlords, and guess what it won't work, because the evil landlord corporation funds your politicians.
Its funny they dont go after bankers but go after landlords even though bankers are far more powerful. I wonder who has historically hated land owners cause they couldnt be one....
The same people who hate landlords are the ones that have fucked their credit so badly with unpaid maxed out credit cards and repossessed cars a bank would never give them a mortgage. The people they hate so much are the only ones willing to provide their asses with housing.

Hyperinflation has been a doomsday scenario for modern economies throughout the last century. In all of these failed countries (Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Hungary, Yugoslavia, etc.) there have been uniform warning signs, the same signs that we are starting to see today in the U.S.

Communism via Capitalism. The Neoliberal goal.

I mean to be fair the credit is the biggest hurdle and you have to waste money on stupid shit for a few years to build enough credit to be considered.
You'd think the socialists would have figured it out by now.
It's primarily wealth redistribution. Banks can extract much more money from renters than buyers.
Same reason I dont like land taxes at a residential/rural level. If someone wants to buy some land and live their own life they should be able to.
If one day so many people want to remove themselves from society that this becomes a problem, you need to look at the society, not take their land.
When a federal reserve funded financial institute starts buying up all the houses, it's a sign of looming hyperinflation.
