EV apartment buildings shouldn't be sold in multi-building "portfolios". Until recent years, it was largely one building per (local individual) owner here and they lived well off their building and that was enough but we have now entered a sudden new age of greed where these new investment group buyers are impersonal as hell, buying up everything we have and only care about their fat profits.
