It can, but not necessarily. The issue with landlords is rent-seeking, if the state funnels all of the income towards maintenance, building new housing, or even lowering housing prices without taking profit, they have removed all issues with landlords.
As a landlord, their goal is to make profit. As a state, their goal is to provide a service.

In a bourgois government? I probably have less faith than you do, but one controlled democratically by the Workers? Far more than any landlord.
