Given the relative paucity of housing choice and the fact that no singular site is liable to be universal in usage the expect result of such an action is to slightly increase time to rent with no reasonable expectation that it would effect price of unit. EG say they on average interview 3 tenants before they pick one and take 4 days to get one inquiry after listing a property convincing fully 1/3 of tenants to give them a big miss would result in the property being vacant for an extra 4 days every 3 years. Meanwhile they will be pricing their property based on prevailing prices for units like theirs. This strategy would not be expected to work so few people are going to make unfairly negative reviews about places they already live. I would actually expect to see 1) Fake positive reviews by management/owners 2) Unfair negative reviews by people who were themselves problematic 3) Apartments trying to force people not to review them as a condition of tenancy and trying to unmask reviewers to sue them 4) People trying to get negative reviews removed with hallow or real legal threats 5) Fake negative reviews by competition
