You say tenants can't have their cake and eat it too? Well, business people can't have their cake and eat it too, either. Rental property owners are subject to laws and codes that govern rental properties.

Ah...the classic if you can't afford this tax or this regulation or don't want to put up with this or that you shouldn't be in that business...
Always said by someone with zero connection with anything they are speaking about.
I am not trying to be rude man, really, you seem like a nice dude, but I see this attempt so often its almost seemingly mandatory to come up in a discussion about anything business related.
