This will force many landlords into raising rents by the yearly allowed amount, even when they normally wouldn’t. It will also reflect in the maintenance and appearance of many buildings and erode surrounding property values. As rent revenue erodes so do properties and surrounding neighborhoods. Just look at NY, Berkeley and Oakland, to name only a few. <br />Thank you, <br />Tony Bernard <br />Sent from my iPad
