Why? A co-op can own an apartment with occupants as co-owners. There's no need for rent.

Sigh: Rent/own apartments. Own houses.

I ask again: why? What does renting accomplish that a co-op couldn't? Other than making a landlord rich.

Sigh. I'm saying that corporations can own rental apartments if they want because there is enough room for both. Corporations should not own houses.
