Left on his own he will likely get bored with the job and simply not do it at all. Meaning lots of vacancies and slowly destroying the efficiency of the program. He doesn't strike me as a man that wants to do a good job in housing as much as a man that wants some more recognition so he can sell more books later on. He's in the book selling business, not housing.
