In order for them to have fallen as far and for their situation to be as terrible as they want it to be for the premise, they can't actually "own" anything in the sense of being landlords and charging rent

What he owns is an *easement* on the town where he has the permanent right to live there without being evicted, but with pretty broad leeway for the actual owners to decide how much his family gets in the way of amenities ...Which isn't all that valuable a thing to own
