For one, you get the benefit of renting. Which is flexibility.

What is the benefit of renting from yourself?

[–] Jimius@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Because there is no profit motive if you rent from yourself. Also, you only pay rent. You don't have put up collateral, down payments etc. Also you don't actually own it. When you leave, you're not selling anything.

The example we have been using clearly stated to the owners of the building were also the tenants of the building. Are you suggesting a completely different example?

I think you better google it for yourself and learn about it, instead of asking questions to strangers and constantly being dissatisfied with the answers.

I am just looking for a comprehensive answer that makes sense. I haven’t read one here so far unfortunately.
