What does it mean to be a landlord then? Are you saying the properties owned by these companies have no landlord? I don't doubt it's a tough job to run a company, I still don't think that justifies the amount of our profits we give up to ensure we have shelter.
Properties owned by a corporation do not have a landlord. They are owned jointly by a group of investors who assume the financial risk. You can be a property company investor too if you want, there are a number of such companies called REITs that sell shares on the stock market and return a quarterly dividend.
