No, if you charge rent but aren’t actually investing meaningful capital in the property (most apartment building landlords do not in my experience), then that meets the definition of rent seeking.
From Wikipedia:
> Rent seeking, according to the Georgist, does not include those persons who have invested substantial capital improvements in a piece of land, but rather those who perform their role as mere titleholders.
- verteu 4mo ago> Rent seeking, *according to the Georgist* Only Georgists believe that. And it's the rent of the "bare land", not including the housing constructed on it.
