    I’m in that boat. I’m a land lord. I built my forever home but after a medical issue I lost my job. Unfortunately my career choice, while lucrative, only has one or two positions per state. So I had to move. I’d like to return to the home I built but that won’t be for another 10 years minimum when I retire. I don’t want to sell my home, so I rented it out. I’m currently renting an apartment myself.

      If you only own a single property you’re not the subject here. A lot of people wouldn’t even use the word landlord to describe you, because your income isn’t generated from ownership without production.

      The word landlord is regressing to mean someone who owns multiple properties and just collects rent without having to do any value-generating work.

        Sorry no, landlord still means anyone who rents homes, even a single one. Even a single room or a basement suite. Just ask any renter what they call the person who they pay for the space. They call them the landlord. You’re stuck in a dark bubble.

        what you are describing is what a lot of people call their retirement plan
