So let’s say a landlord sells their property and somebody else buys it to live in.
Where do the original renters live now?
Or in a rental property, who is paying to maintain it if the landlord is not charging above their mortgage costs?
Or why would a landlord take on the risk of loaning an expensive asset to somebody at cost knowing they may not get paid? Or the boiler stops working and they have to spend thousands fixing it without any risk to the tenant?

That’s not what rental property owners do. They provide housing, not take it away.

Builders provide housing. Landlords are nothing more than a middle man.

Builders build housing. Then they sell it. Rental property owners provide housing.

They literally do not provide housing. If they did, there wouldn’t be a housing shortage.
