If the mortgage payment is the SAME or MORE as the rent, you aren't providing shit.
That's incorrect. Houses need maintenance. They are not self healing. Things break, items need replacing, grass needs to be cut, light bulbs need to be changed, etc. Tenants also need to be managed.
Interesting that every rental I've been in is in some state of disrepair, if that's what you claim the extra is for. You're purposely avoiding the fact that rentals are there to make the landlord money, and nothing more.
Your experiences are not the experiences of everyone who rents.
