Presumably when the landlord rented the place out they did so at a price that would cover their mortgage and other expenses including maintainance. That landlord's problem isn't covering expenses, it's that they're envious of the increasing profits of other landlords.

How rent control regulations deal with the increasing (varying) cost of maintenance?
Opportunity costs. Of course rent control policies try to offset the external cost of pricing out people from their homes.
