If those companies couldn't survive renting real estate at market rates, they deserved to die as they weren't using their capital as well as other businesses.
The new investors used the real estate only to sue the first company to get money – after the first company went bankrupt, no one rented the real estate again, it’s empty now.
It wasn’t "at market rates", it was far above that, and just intended to bleed out every piece of property from the company and transfer it as profit to the investors.
