    a good landlord [is one] who maintains their property

    That job exists - they are called maintenance workers: plumbers, electricians, roofers, handymen…

    What makes a landlord a landlord - and not a handyman - is the ownership of property and extraction of rent for its use. It is definitionally not the labor involved in maintaining it.

    If landlords want to be paid for maintaining properties they can get jobs as maintenance workers.
