Y’all are missing something imo. Landlords are artificial demand - they drive up the housing prices for everyone, including home owners.
The argument that it costs to maintain a home blah blah is BS - if it wasn’t profitable then the landlords sell it. They’re not being charitable. They make a profit and it comes out of poor people’s wages.
Every city should have a Municipal Housing Corporation. Basically an entity that takes advantage of economies of scale and collective buying power specifically mandated to provide housing at below market rates.

You’re assuming everyone acts rationally, which is a big assumption.
