Why? Because apparently they need some more incentive to keep units occupied. Also, even though a property might be vacant, there’s still imputed rental income there. Its owner is just receiving it in the form of enjoying the unit for himself instead of receiving an actual rent check from a tenant. That imputed rent ought to be taxed like any other income.
So much to unpack there, not the least of which are the sweeping generalization of “landlord” and the truly odd assumption that all landlords “enjoy” every single vacant unit “for themselves”… I mean, I appreciate your outrage, but damn. Stay in school?
No outrage here. I’m using the word enjoy in an economic sense, as in possessing something and getting some benefit out of it. The concept is called “imputed rent” if you’d like to look it up.
They could enjoy the space. It’s their choice no to.
Try going to school.
Swing and a miss, kiddo.
Nope. Die in a fire landlord scum.
Heh. You’re adorable. Keep chirpin’ li’l bird. 😘
I hope all your properties are stripped for copper and the sewers are filled with concrete.
