Landlords own and rent out properties to other people. The responsibility of the landlord is to maintain the property and ensure local building codes are maintained for the safety and welfare of the renters.

The cost of maintenance related to rental properties can vary depending on many factors. It is very possible the landlord is unable or unwilling to spend the money necessary to properly maintain the property. In this case the continued deterioration of the property allows it to become a "slum".

When the income produced by the rental property is insufficient to support the maintenance of the property this commonly results in the condition above.
