All you need to persuade is a few tenant/repair/lawsuit horror
stories to tell. Should convince anyone with a brain. Plus any
homeowner (not me ever again) will tell you how much time/expense
they spend on their own property every weekend/year Then multiply
it.

The idea that real estate is a great investment is deeply
ingrained in Americans...and probably most modern populations (it
used to not be a thing in Japan so much...for residential RE,
but I believe that has changed). It goes against programming
so people get emotional when real estate investment is mentioned in
a negative way. It's one of our largest industries, all in
(realtors, builders, lenders, Insurers, Title, Lawyers, Home Depot,
Lowes, TILE, etc, etc.). To support the money train, they do
everything they can to keep the dream deeply ingrained in culture
(HGTV, flipping shows, etc).

Real Estate is a decent investment in a landlord friendly state
or provinces. Canada is tenant friendly not landlord friendly.
Tenants have 99% of the rights. They stop paying rent and the
landlord will spend a minimum of 1 year or more tryting to evict.
By that time landlord has lost thousands of dollars plus damage
caused by tenants. And there's no repercussions against the
tenants. Our Canadian government has put the homeless issue on the
backs of struggling landlords.

BEst rental ever had was managed by a realtor. I sucked at
it...let folks slide too long on rent. Sold that house later to
James Worthy. Still got the down payment copy of check. That was
cool.
