okay, what if say, you get into a situation where you can get a property for a good price and you want to live there in the future, but not yet, and you are like, well I am gonna rent it out for a reasonable price until then?
housing might be, but not my house, I am also specifically renting it to someone who explicitly said they don’t want to own it just want a short term rental, us that still scalping?
No, you should just let people live there for free and probably destroy the place because it doesn’t belong to them so why bother maintaining it? They can just move to the next free house when yours is wrecked.
ofc, I also can’t charge for utilities, so I have the privilege of paying for their use of water, septic, electricity and gas, ofc Internet is also. becoming a basic necessity so better start paying for that too.
You could just, you know, pay for the property without renting it out if you want it that bad. If you’re in a position where you can just buy a property to hold for the future, you probably have enough money to do that. Otherwise, move into it or just don’t buy it.
Renting it out makes you a landlord. Having other people pay for land you own to live there, without giving them a stake in it, is leeching off of their finances. It’s not that hard to understand.
okay, so let’s say someone comes and is like, “I want to live in your property, I am not interested in buying, since I am only in this country for a short time and due to tax laws selling within 5 years would make the prospect of buying not worth it, I would like to rent this property from you.”
I should be like, “Nah bro sorry, some children on lemmy said that’s leeching, I am gonna leave this empty”
Otherwise, move into it or just don’t buy it.
Ah yes, I shouldn’t have taken advantage of the very-low mortgage rates I should have not bought it, because fuck planning for the future.

oh so now we are telling people what to do with their stuff?
Bro, you’re trying really hard to justify having other people pay for your property. There’s zero chance I’m changing your mind, since you’re now putting fringe circumstances on the table to make your point like this is supposed black and white. You came here to argue. Have a good one.
Sorry bro, I’m just a kid on lemmy who can’t hear past your condescension.
I am just calling out the utter stupidity going on here
Yeah, we know you’re just here to pick a fight. It says a lot about you that you think us children and you’re still here arguing like you think any of us kids are going to take you seriously. Sure buddy, teach us a lesson. That’ll show us.
We understand that renting isn’t going to go away. That doesn’t make landlords good people.

Housing is a human right, so charging for something that should be free is still scalping.

Anything else I am doing wrong?

what fringe circumstances? lol
you think the existence of people who don’t want to buy just rent is fringe??
or what is the fringe circumstance?
My property is not being paid for by anyone (other than me) since I am not renting it, I am just calling out the utter stupidity going on here.
