I see no difference between buying all the food in a super market and then telling poorer people to pay whatever I ask in order to eat and buying houses and telling people who want to live in them they must pay me a fee as a middle man.
MTU is quite the anti-capitalist. I never would have guessed. He seems to assume that Hatty is able to buy up all of the residential properties in the relevant market. Or at least that's my interpretation of his comment. He doesn't talk to me anymore, or I would ask him to clarify that point. He also seemed to miss the part where Hatty said that he was increasing the housing supply by taking distressed properties and fixing them up.
