    Granted, landlords insurance pays for a new building and lost rent. Now renting it for even more money.

      Maybe for the first few, but after awhile it would be common knowledge that raising rents too much magically causes building to burst into flames. Insurance doesn’t cover intentional acts. If you deliberately burn your own house down, insurance isn’t going to cover that. Plus every insurance policy would exclude coverage for this sort of entirely predictable and preventable fire.
