I use 'home' here in the sense of a dwelling, a residence: a place where someone lives. You seem to be saying that tenants don't have a right to call somewhere

You seem to be saying that tenants don't have a right to call somewhere home, which is exactly my point.
- m-i-l 11y agoNo I'm not - when I say "tenants do not own the property" I'm referring to the definition of "own" rather than "home". Of course tenants have a right to call somewhere home, but owning and renting are different things with their own set of advantages/disadvantages and obligations. For example, if you bought a book from a shop you would expect to be able to do what you want with it (e.g. paint all over it and keep it indefinitely), but if you borrowed a book from a library you would be expected to return it in reasonable condition within a finite period of time.
