    Nah those maintenance dudes aren’t my landlord. Neither is the property manager. The landlord is the one that gets my money, and I will never refer to any complex staff as such. Literally lording over the land I live in and expecting payment. That being said, I agree with you.

      This is the right answer. In most cases, the person managing the property is NOT the landlord. They are an employee of the actual landlord, usually a private equity firm. At most apartment complexes, the property manager doesn’t even live in one of the units, they own a home far from the complex.
