    It’s not even the right calculation he should be considering - a mortgage payment pays down interest and principal. Rent should only be expected to cover the interest portion of a mortgage - anything that covers principal is basically free money for the landlord. This guy is basically upset because he can’t find a tenant who’ll give him a free house fast enough. I have no sympathy.
