AHAHAHAhahahaha

They have confused a "landlord" with a "bank". When a bank owns your property but accepts monthly payments from you it's called a "mortgage", you build "equity" when you pay monthly. This is your "part ownership".

Landlords pay "mortgages" to banks and you pay landlords "rent' to live in a property with minimal time frame commitments, near zero repair and maintenance commitments and the ability to walk away from said property without having to sell the property or pay off a loan.

In what world would a landlord rent out a house if it meant they lose their own equity as soon as they get it??

As a property manager, I've never had a renter take as good a care of a property as a homeowner.

As a renter, after having left properties cleaner than I have found them, I have never been treated fairly and have ALWAYS lost minimum a huge part of my security deposit. So, crimea river.

There are good landlords and bad landlords, just as there are good and bad tenants.

It's sad that you had a bad landlord.
