‘Extreme’ rent control could be coming to California soon

[BrokeLoser]

Rent control will be coming to every state. Even small towns are seeing house prices and most importantly rent going through the roof. No cities are immune.

I would also bet new type housing will be coming out similar to the tiny house revolution. You'll see tiny apartments and tiny hotels like they have in Japan. Just large enough to live in. Something has to give because families with children are the ones at most risk of having to sleep on the street.

Let me get this straight: You believe that rent control actually works? Could you point out some examples where this happened?

What needs to give is all the government regulations states put in the way of new home constrution. Of course, the lib solution is to make everyone suffer.

New York City did just fine.


The problem when real estate becomes too expensive , regular people/workers can’t afford to live in the city .

Haha...by “regular people” what you really mean in the case of Mexifornia is illegal wetbacks...right?

Rent control ?? Is that anything like telling someone who owns a property, that if they rent it, then they will have to make it available to the poor family on government assistance ??

Let me see now, so you rent to the government dependent/democrat voting family, where as the government makes it as easy as can possibly be for a single mom type family with say 4 to 5 kids (some teens), to rent your place off the tax payers dime, but then what happens next is that they totally destroy the home within two years or less, and destroy the entire neighborhood within 5 years or less.

Then the government and the renters take their hellish tornado somewhere else.

This bullcrap cuts across all lines these days, so please leave race out of it.

People trying to protect their communities, cultures, and assets is understandable always. The government has some splaining to do about how it has gotten away with this type of tyranny over the years now.

Rent control is where the government tells you how much you can charge for rent, even if that's below the cost of maintaining the property. Typically the government never allows landlords to raise their rents. As a result, landlods stop maintaining their property or even abandon it, and it becomes unfit for human habitation.

These people are greedy and need rent control

They are not as greedy as deadbeat moochers who want an apartment at below market rates.

Couldn't be any worse than scott pruitt getting a condo at way below market value from an energy lobbyist.

California: Housing is way too expensive we need rent control and subsidies!

Also California: You know our high cost housing issues? We should add 30-50 thousand to the cost of a new home.

California, land of the mandatory solar panels

That state is run by morons,

2nd highest life expectancy, 5th largest economy in the world among nations. The high costs of living are due to extremely high demand and low supply which would go against every claim that people are fleeing CA in droves.

Easy to see why cons dislike CA, it shames every red state.

And that has what to do with anything here? California isn’t immune to economics. Hell Venezuela was the eighth economy in the world but look at them now. You can’t do stupid shit forever and not pay the price.

Healthcare too expensive? Let's just hold a gun to a doctors' head and force him to provide his service at a loss!

Rent too expensive? Let's just hold a gun to a landlord's head and force him to provide his service at a loss!

Why didn't we think of this earlier?

Ronald Regan passed the law saying you have to give medical attention.

After they pass this monstrosity, California will become an empty wasteland. The current stock of housing will decay until the entire state is a slum, and anyone in the middleclass who can will leave for more sensible states.

‘Extreme’ rent control could be coming to California soon

A costly and potentially bruising campaign is taking shape over rent control in California, with deep-pocketed Los Angeles activist Michael Weinstein bankrolling a proposed November ballot initiative to repeal a state law that sets tight limits on the type of housing covered under local rent control laws.

“Nobody’s fighting for the tenant,” said Weinstein, president of AIDS Healthcare Foundation, who partly funded the Proposition 61, the 2016 fight over prescription drug costs that became the most expensive initiative that year, with total spending at roughly $130 million.

As California confronts a historic housing crisis, low- and middle-income renters are being pushed out, even in cities with some form of rent control.

The disruption is fueling the push by Weinstein and other tenants rights’ activists to overturn a state law that prevents cities and counties from adopting strong rent control laws.​

What's particularly pathetic is that Californians are already flooding into their neighboring States to escape the monstrosity they created ... and they are voting to do the exact same thing to their new States. Nevada is already turning blue. It's incredible. Leftists have an innate ability to never learn from their mistakes

turning blue or not,Nevada is nothing like California.....at least were i am at.....

I said Californians are going to Nevada and voting for that. You thought the process happens overnight? Why did you think that?

californians have been here for many years,you thought they just started showing up a few years ago?....why would you think that?...

Yes, exactly. I thought no one ever went from California to Nevada before a few years ago.

Idiot.

So basically you're a transplanted Californian who left that shithole to escape the mess you created who is still voting for Democrats. You may want to Google Einstein's definition of insanity ...

Sure it is. Who's the victim in the Scott Pruitt example? Who says it's below market value?

Harry Dickless. I got nothing, I'm going to repeat what you said back to me back to you.

I did not say that it was overnight, I did not say that no Californian ever went to Nevada before, you made those up.

As for three posts you defend Democrats in the quote of my post, I like how you cut them out in this specific reply. Obviously you saw them, dumb ass

Ronald Regan passed the law saying you have to give medical attention.

So that means the doctors don't get paid?

 

[Markle]

That’s not what happens . They still get a good rent . And the city gets to have school teachers and police officers who normally couldn’t live in the city .

How many residential rental properties do you own?

Rent control was a failure in New York and it is a failure in San Francisco.

 

[Markle]

There will be plenty of housing in CA after the middle class flees

The upper class is fleeing. They can't afford the obscene taxes any longer nor the prices.

 

[Markle]

These people are greedy and need rent control

Who are you calling greedy? The landlord for wanting to try and make a profit on their investment or the tenants for wanting something for nothing?
