Another elephant in the room:
Eviction moratoriums and increased renting risk being passed down to the renter.
So many tenants were taking advantage and abusing the system, but a few bad apples creates an outsized perception, which results in skyrocketing rents.
- mdcds 4y ago+1. this as well. actually, just yesterday I learned about a website for exploring eviction data: https://evictionlab.org/ https://evictionlab.org/
- ryathal 4y agoThis created a massive new risk that is now getting priced in. prices are probably going to jump for a decade because of it, and maybe permanently if politicians decide to do another eviction moratorium for some reason.
- antisthenes 4y agoI think the moratorium made sense in a general sense, but the CDC certainly shouldn't be the one with the authority to create a policy like that. Which is why it's being challenged in Supreme Court. Probably lasted a few months too long also.
