For better or worse it is unrealistic to expect business to just eat rising costs just because they got into business before the costs were so high. That would be nice but it’s just not how the world works. If that were true then entire economies would collapse every time there was an economic shock.
You’d be right talking about extremely unnecessary shit, like a new bugatti or a rolex or a replacement for a phone you bought less than 12 moths ago, but living space is a necessity that should be affordable if that’s what the tenants need - good luck finding much of affordable and liveable living space.

It’s also unrealistic to expect tenants to eat the costs for one our three very basic needs - food, water, shelter.
So what’s the solution?
