Landlords have backed Auckland property investor Ron Goodwin who says they should not to be "too kind" because tenants take advantage.
Mr Goodwin, 74, has 37 properties in Auckland and Waikato generating $14,500 a week in rent.

Unbelievable. The Universe has treated him very well and he still has the audacity to whine. It looks like property isn't his thing and he should sell up and find another hobby. Maybe the sharemarket... lol.
But landlord Kevin Menzies stuck up for his sector and suggested the Herald's report on Mr Goodwin was promoting "anti-landlord hysteria".
......
"What crusade are you on and why? Most landlords are like me - working people trying to save for their retirement because the Government has abdicated its social responsibility in this sphere. We don't trust the share market and at least by owning property we can have some control over our investment."
How appallingly ironic. People like this are usually the same ones complaining about beneficiaries, and in the next breath justifying their lanlordary by whining the government doesn't pay the over-65 beneficiaries enough.
