Every landlord I know is independently wealthy. They treat their properties as money makers so they don't have to work.

Not a single one would actually have an issue if they didn't get the rent that month.

Month to month implies that their house of cards comes down if they miss a month. This is simply not the case for most of these parasites.

I've known a fair amount too and they always over leveraged themselves. As soon as they had enough for another down payment they would purchase another property. It could have been a different strategy or situation than the landlords you know. To the landlords I knew having aapartment vacant for two months was a serious financial issue.
