Why is right to evict tied to rent control? Seems irrelevant
"Pressure to stay" can certainly be alleviated, rent control all properties. Half measures do not necessarily solve half the problem.
- solatic 7mo agoRent control is literally the removal of the right to evict a tenant who refuses the otherwise-uncontrolled rent increase you request. The inability to evict them for refusing the rent increase is what de-facto keeps the rent from increasing beyond its controlled limit.
- fyredge 7mo agoOh, I get that, but what's stopping the landlord from evicting someone who damages their property? Or if the landlord no longer wants to rent and wants to live in it themselves?
