I'm just curious how we'll define "realistic", because someone who's into just software programming might be satisfied with a studio apartment. I can't live without my basement workshop however. I like to make stuff.

That's valid. But, for example: You don't need a dozen of different houses.

Either end of the scale is clear. Less clear in the middle 😞

Would a handyman who is fixing up several at a time need that many?

How many houses can a person fix at once? Do you need to own them while fixing them? Why?

Does the handyman permanently live in all of them?

This is it right here. Housing is a right, not a commodity. Landlords shouldn't exist.
