Its precisely because he has no cashflow problems that he'll more than likely evict you after a year. If he's got other guaranteed sources of income, why let you stay on and pay the same rent, when he can ask you to vacate and negotaite a huge increase for a greater profit.

At least that's what i'd do if i was the landlord...
