    Not really, they’re maintaining their asset, just like washing your own clothes isn’t a job you get paid for, keeping your house in working condition isn’t

      Washing clothes and building maintenance absolutely is labor.

      Rent is far, far higher than the cost of building maintenance though.

      Washing the clothes would be a job if you were renting the clothes out.
