    Why lie?

    You staying the owner is a billion times better than some company or land developer buying it

      Huh? I don’t follow

      I said him owning it is better than a laege company owning it

      I mean isn’t that better??? You can reason with a guy, given that he’s reasonable, but you have no chance with a company. And his price is probably lower than that of a company looking to maximise profits with constant market data available to them

        And I asked you why, at which point you claimed you didn’t say that.

        You can reason with a guy, given that he’s reasonable, but you have no chance with a company.

        I see no reason to think you have any better chance reasoning with this guy.

        And his price is probably lower than that of a company

        I see zero reason to believe he’s renting for below market rate. Individual owners don’t general charge lower rent than companies, so your assertion that he “probably” does is completely baseless.
