The problem are not landlord… At least, not traditional one. It’s because we treat a basic need as an investment. A home should not be an investment. It should be something like a car, it should depreciate with time.
Another thing is NIMBY. Preventing new construction project to protect your investment is another cause of this shitshow.
Another thing is urbanism rule. Homeowner should be allowed to build something on their land instead of playing the lawn competition every year.
Solve these and the landlord thing is gone. The landlord outrage is a distraction from the real plague. It’s just a symptom. Of course a landlord will raise the price if it can, that’s how a market works. Landlord can raise the price because we don’t construct enough. That is the real outrage and that’s what we should focus on. Not this shitty ragebait dividing piece of false problem.
Renting is useful for so many reason. Not everyone wants to take care of a house or can afford one.
