This is of course true, and the extreme aversion to private equity buying houses versus any other investor such as a person buying a second house to rent out, has puzzled me.
Those small time landlords have been the worst landlords I have ever had. Give me a large corporate landlord which knows that laws exist and at least tries to follow them over the greedy, ignorant, and desperate small-time landlord any day.
- dbspin 2y agoAs someone who has lived in both, I can't agree. The small time landlords have differed between incredibly kind and deeply unreasonable, but they've all charged under market and responded to issues with their properties in a timely way. I've hit brick walls even attempting to contact owners / get building management to respond with institutional ownership. Both your experience and mine however are anecdotal and while persuasive to us individually, don't evidence the issue one way or another.
