a homeless person could live there and not be homeless anymore
True! What's your point?
Someone putting a basement suite in their home isn't removing a purchasable dwelling from the market, it's adding to the number of available dwellings.
Then who fixes and maintains it?
The homeless guy.
It is tough sometimes. It is not a full-time job.
Oh that is funny. Normal renters dont take care of a unit let alone a person that is homeless. And many problems are out of the ability of almost everyone. Is the homeless person going to replace the HVAC system?
