I take issue with the phrase “landlords don’t need to lift a single finger”
I’m in the process of selling my house (in the UK) right now so I can move to somewhere cheaper. We have people coming round to view it on maybe a twice- or thrice-weekly basis. I don’t even know their names. The estate agent (American: “realtor”) handles all of that. I just get a phone call telling me they’ve got someone who wants to come and view at X date and time, all I have to do is say yes or no then arrange to not be home. It’s all included in the frankly breathtaking sum I’m paying the estate agent.
I can’t imagine rental properties are different in any meaningful way.
