      The only thing they’re really doing wrong is gaslighting people by calling them a “roommate.”

      Otherwise it’s just people surviving under capitalism. OP didn’t capture the rental market, that was done by much, much bigger fish.

        Not really… They’re just being nicer to a friend than another landlord would be. It’s not like the friend is buying equity in their house.

        This makes OP a better landlord than most. It also demonstrates how the system is rigged to benefit property owners over others.
