地主係擁有一啲住宅嘅人,好多時都會用嘅方法嚟做收入嚟源[1]

責任

編輯

喺一份租借嘅合約裏面,地主一般都會需要做任何同維修相關嘅嘢,而租客就需要保持笪地方乾淨同安全。

好多地主都會用房地產嘅公司嚟負責處理問題,包括寫合約、揾人做維修、同埋揾租客等等[2][3]。如果租得出,呢啲公司就會收返地主嘅部分租金。

土地財產

編輯

土地作為財產並唔係一個全世界都有嘅概念。例如,美洲原居民並冇呢個概念,反而將土地睇成做公物[4]。當時,洋人會見啲土著好似唔用笪地,跟住就自己攞嚟用。點不知原嚟佢哋純粹對土地嘅概念同睇法唔一樣[5]

有啲歐洲嘅學家並唔認為土地應該屬於財產,例如 Adam Smith。佢曾經批評呢個概念,話「當笪地一成為咗私人財產之後,地主就會冚唪唥ham6 bang6 lang6都走去話要收[6]

壟斷

編輯

如果地主非常有錢,亦好多時會買起哂附近嘅住宅,造成壟斷嘅情況。 例如,喺2011-2012年期間,一個亞特蘭大嘅社區有超過9成嘅都係畀一間投資公司買起咗[7]。有時候,一間公司會起公司住宅英文Company towns,如果喺經濟衰退嘅時候,就可以升同減人工[8][9]。如果情況非常嚴重,就會造成貧民窟,即係環境又差到爆,但係啲地主嘅公司又當睇唔到。
