That may be an excuse in Canada, but not here, at least not generally - most people own their apartments here, rentals are a minority (that's one of the remnants from the USSR time, when apartment houses belonged to the state, not to private owners. Now, when a new apartment house is built, all the apartments in it are sold separately. People get a loan from a bank to buy their chosen apartment. Some do buy them for renting out, but most buy an apartment to live in it.)
