Very few analysts/experts, are reminding people that NOT all landlords are multi-national/mega investors. The majority of us are Mum & Dad investors, who have been hit from ALL sides as to providing ourselves with income during these very difficult times/days. Of the 4 investments that we hold, 3 have been reduced by 1/4 - 1/3, and the other is producing NO income whatsoever. We are not alone, and Mr Morrison hasn't made life any easier for the likes of us.

It's difficult to feel sorry for someone who owns 4 properties and hasn't planned for the possibility of as t least half of them being vacant. If you can't afford to keep those properties, then quit hoarding them and sell 1.

I agree with Dan. Barry, I think it's worth mentioning that NO tenant is a multi-national/mega investor. It's because we cannot afford to invest in property that there was an available pool of tenants to allow you to float 4 properties in the past. The tenants you have retained are still paying 3/4 - 2/3 of pre-pandemic rental prices, most likely with NO income. If they are receiving govt aid, the majority of it goes towards paying that 3/4-2/3, so it still get into the hands of landlords eventually!

RE ".....hasn't planned for the possibility of as t least half of them being vacant...." They probably have planned for it - but not for an extended time as caused by this claimed "1 in 100 year event"

RE " ... NO tenant is a multi-national/mega investor ..." You do not know that. Tenants can own investment properties or have large investments in other assets such as shares etc or even super. Id classify governemtn aid as income.
