Don’t need more socialist bullshit for those who can’t pay their way but want all the privledges thereof.

 

[Tijn Von Ingersleben]

No.

Our nation needs property tax control. Property owners have to pay bills too. Those costs get passed on to the renter. Control the expenses at the local and state level and keep property taxes down. Also city and county money grubbers put in restrictions and laws that make older housing units harder to keep up because they get very unrealistic in order to push agendas that make them and their buds money. Apparently they all have private little slush funds they do not want discovered much less talked about.

So I work hard all my life and end up with some rental properties so the gubbmint can dictate how much I can charge for rent.

How perfectly socialist.

You can tell by the suck factor being so high.

In this feelings frenzy that has overtaken the liberals, government must make it “fair” for those who can’t take care of themselves at the expense of those who can.

soooo rent control will make homes more affordable, but then their taxes will go way you to pay for it?
Rent control seems to always create the opposite affect that they want

from Bloomberg:

"Rentals with single-room occupancies, once a staple of urban housing, were largely zoned out of U.S. cities decades ago. An Atlanta startup called PadSplit thinks they’re ready for a comeback: The company is helping landlords turn rental properties into pay-by-the-week rooming houses. They already manage more than 400 rooms, mostly in lower- and middle-income neighborhoods of single-family homes. ●“We’re investing in this because we have basically come to believe that there is going to be a housing crisis again,” says Arjan Shütte, founder of Core Innovation Capital, a venture capital firm that’s backing PadSplit. “Ten years ago the crisis was a financial one. This time it’s a crisis of supply.” ●Founded by Atticus LeBlanc, PadSplit instructs landlords on how to convert properties into PadSplit-branded lodging and then manages them for a fee, working inside loopholes in local laws. For example, although Atlanta doesn’t allow rooming houses in single-family-home neighborhoods, PadSplits are designed so that the tenants meet the city’s complicated definition of a “single family”: up to six unrelated people, plus another four, as long as the latter occupy no more than two rooms. ●PadSplit roomers get a furnished bedroom; use of bathrooms, kitchen, dining, and laundry rooms; all utilities; wireless; and a cleaning service for about $140 a week, which is collected electronically. A typical home has 5 to 8 furnished bedrooms. "

That and there will be a claim they need more HUD money going to large developers and investment firms. My grandmother owned an eight apartment unit that was all built with bricks, single story. She left it to my dad. He went down to S. California to get repairs in order on it and the city there wanted him to pay $15,000.00 for a few plumbing repairs and new doors. It was work he was going to do himself. (dad was a pipefitter/plumber by trade and they rebuilt and built houses over the years). He said f' it and sold it dirt cheap 'as is' since they were going to charge him $15,000.00 every time he wanted to fix something on the place. You know those new buildings down there were all that shooting went on in San Bernardino was? Well a portion of that was the land my grand had owned since the 50's that some local thugs in San Bernardino wanted to get ahold of and develop. Greed is a problem and people who are standing by and watching this whole ball of wax go to the fascist will actually deserve whatever they get out of it when they are determined to no longer be of use to the greed mongers.
