A landlord is almost always making money even if they are just "breaking even" on the mortgage.
If the landlord is still paying for a mortgage, the profit goes into their equity gain.
Once the mortgage is paid off, the profit goes into the landlords pocket.
This is how many people get started being parasites on society. They have other people pay the bank while they gain the assets of their labor.
