Unfortunately, what most tenants would self-identify as a "fair rent" 
means the landlord is making a loss. Especially when all the overheads 
mentioned earlier (which tenants have little visibility of) are 
included.

Plus of course, cost of repairs. A visit from a plumber is going to cost 
about two week's rent, and a friend recently had a new shower cubicle 
fitted (owner occupier, not rental) which cost over ten grand [yes, she 
got multiple quotes].
