    How are you a landlord if you only own one house? Surely you mean two houses. Unless you rent.

      Sorry should have clarified that, I have one house that I rent out. I own a different home that I live in. When I said one home, I meant I have one home for renting.

        Ah, thanks for clarifying. I think most of us would see that as having two homes, one of which you rent out.

      Could own a two-family home. It’s super common in my area for there to be one apartment downstairs and one upstairs.

        Oh, thanks for sharing. That’s extremely rare in my experience. I only ever experienced it when I lived in Japan, in fact. Never have encountered that as a thing in the US, though I’m sure it happens here and there.

        American landlords tend to live in their own single family house.
