Yes, and the need to support the banking industry is why we can't have proper tenant protection. People don't buy because it's a good investment, they are sick of the fact that in America it's impossible to get someone to perform according to contract. If you own and the sewer line has collapsed you have it fixed. If you rent, it's an ordeal and like pulling teeth, and there is no recourse for having to live with shit for three months.
