Owning a house isn't a service.
Providing maintenance/repairs and carrying the financial risk is.
Providing maintenance isn't being a landlord. You can be a landlord and also do real work on the house as a maintenance person, the same way you can be a landlord and also work at McDonald's. But being a landlord is not a job and provides no value.
