The only way I'd be a landlord is for the exact opposite reason: it ended up being a way for me to lose money but ensure housing for folks that were struggling. I'd start the process of making it a co-op where rent built equity until they purchased it at a low rate (in this scenario I'm not rich enough to buy it and give it away but I am rich enough to buy it and have "renters" buy it for half price or something over a period of time).
Or maybe some weird commercial real estate thing where I'm an owner of an org's meeting space on some technicality but still not making money from it.
