    Most people would buy if they could. But too many are forced to rent because of those landlords cutting the queue and paying through their nose because to them it is an investment and not a home.

      But that’s not what’s happening in this circumstance- it’s literally just her old apartment. If she sold it and did want to move back, then she’d be competing with the landlords to buy another one. Or better yet- if she sold it, it could also be bought by a DIFFERENT landlord who might charge more.
