I can't afford to sell my house and I have to move... So I'm renting it out. Am I a baddie? To be fair, I can only afford to rent where I'm moving.

I'm a reluctant landlord too. In this case it's an inheritance that I'm letting someone rent until they are ready to buy, so I don't really consider myself a true "landlord".

You're not, try not to worry about it. The system is screwed up.

I'd say no because you're giving out space in your own home and presumably have taken responsibility for its maintenance yourself.

Where it'd begin to ascend into you being an exploiter is if you began to acquire new properties for the explicit purpose of collecting rent off them or to sell them after renovations for a mark-up.
