    Rent freezes make landlords only do the bare minimum maintenance required by the law since they can’t increase rents when doing any remodelling.

          So you do the bidding of a class you don’t belong to? How fucking sad is that.

            So first I’m just a landlord shill, but now that you find out I’m not one I’m doing their bidding? Maybe I just want to have a discussion

        Only in rent-controlled markets. In other markets they remodel to jack up the prices, but you would complain about that too

          Anyone with a brainstem would complain about that i think. Though I don’t grant your premise in the absolute least.

            So if landlords put more money into renovation it’s bad, if they don’t it’s also bad
