75%?? source?
That sounds like too much.
- nerfhammer 9y agothis source claims 72% is more accurate: https://www.quora.com/What-percentage-of-San-Francisco-apartments-are-under-rent-control https://www.quora.com/What-percentage-of-San-Francisco-apart...
- conanbatt 9y agoWow this law is so ridiculous, it basically applies to most the stock. I don't think most people enjoy this benefit of rent control, it wouldn't make sense to rent out properties. I wonder what is the effective rent control rate (that which has affected price significantly). Maybe a rental turnover rate would hint at a solution.
- csisvunit 9y agorent control is what's keeping san francisco, barely, san francisco. it isnt going away. its also whats keeping my landlord from doubling my rent, thank you very much.
- nerfhammer 9y agoCongratulations, you've got a new kind of arbitrarily allocated ownership.
- conanbatt 9y agoPeople that don't have (effective) rent control do not feel the way you do.
- davidsawyer 9y agoMaybe this is what is being referenced: https://www.quora.com/What-percentage-of-San-Francisco-apartments-are-under-rent-control https://www.quora.com/What-percentage-of-San-Francisco-apart... Though, I don't think this is "rent control" in the NYC sense of the term where rents are kept way under market rate. Rather, it seems to be a set of ordinances around what landlords can and can't do, largely pertaining to rent increases: http://sfrb.org/rent-ordinance http://sfrb.org/rent-ordinance
- pmiller2 9y agoIn NYC terms, I believe "rent control" in SF is more akin to "rent stabilization."
