they chase the highest market rates and pay the least expenses
As everyone else does. While I don’t object your argument, I don’t see this as a specific issue with landlords. It’s just standard capitalism. Which sucks, but I personally think it’s unfair to blame just that one group specifically.
If you need a plumber, someone to fix your car, someone to help your children in school or to repair your PC… Most contractors typically will charge as much as the market allows. Also supermarkets don’t sell stuff cheaper out of goodwill. If the market gets out of control, it’s the government’s job to intervene and regulate. And unless it’s a multi billion corporation I at least think that such regulation is possible.
