Yae? Nae?

Leads to housing shortage and shitier living conditions. No maintenance and surrounded by niggers

Nae, we'll still be paying more than muds, because THEY ALWAYS get priority over us indigenous for council and housing association places. . London is a perfect example of this.

They get their filthy hands into every councils housing department.

Should individuals be allowed to profit of property? I get that there needs to be private landlords and rental properties but it strikes me that (((millennials))) and gen z are gonna get shafted. Property ownership is already down among under 30s. Having them pay somebodies second or third mortgage is a recipe for increasing generational economic disparity sure to implode eventually.
I don't know if rent control is the answer but if the case against it is properties and neighborhoods falling into disrepair then surely a contract between the tenant and landlord could solve this, or at least avoid the situation in places where rent control is not yet imposed?

>Should individuals be allowed to profit of property?
Yes, fuck off.

The "freer" your landlord is to raise your rent a $1000 in one month without telling you.

Can't pay? GTFO

If you want a shitty house that's barely livable but has low rent you can already get that now, what's the problem here?

If you're too stupid to have a contract with a set price for the entire lease you're an idiot. If you're a renter at all you deserve to be swindled.

a lease is re-negotiated every year with new terms subject to the owner's will whereas month-to-month has legal protections against massive increases and evictions. you don't like the new lease? get out. renting? you have the power. weird that way.

>a lease is re-negotiated every year
So what you mean is the landlord can't raise the rent without letting you know and signing a new contract? Damn.

Sure, let's go full commie when we can easily accomplish the same by having 100% taxation on rental incomes over $x.

But I'm sure you're way is cheaper and easier to implement, and wont result in entire blocks of grossly under-maintained properties.
