Are there any occurrences of such a price control doing anything but worse unintended consequences?

- bertil 8y agoThere has been similar systems in place in France and Sweden, and probably other European countries. Usually, they are targetting financing system: you can borrow money at a rebated cost if you do not rent it for a period of five to ten years. The intended consequences are more people being able to afford a house and home ownership has increased with most policies that I can think of. There are some consequences: rental contracts are very hard to find in Stockholm for instance, but those hardly seem unintended.
