I don't think anyone is "crying for these landlords"
I also don't think that sweeping generalizations about what makes a landlord are beneficial to anyone, particularly the thousands of duplex, 3 and 4 family owned homes in and around the city. Being a landlord does not by default make someone rich, nor does it make them shitty.
This narrative has been beat to death and is really hurting small landlords who are one non paying tenant away from mortgage default. Or using this as their retirement income..
