Slightly preferable to being rendered out of a home due to your landlord making a $15k investment disaster.

In the years I rented I had two (technically 3) homes get sold by a landlord needing the cash.

I’m glad I live somewhere with enough protections for renters that I would not lose my home if the landlord sold it to a new owner. It’s crazy to me that landlords in other places can just kick people out when they feel like it

They can't just kick you out if you have a lease.

Yeah but I believe in a lot of places they can choose to not renew your lease which is effectively the same thing?
