Dan going full atlas shrugged.
Control the price increase of rentals and demand all these extra costs (land tax, inspections etc) / bureacracy to have them.
It’s been proven rent controls lead to maintenance getting skimped on and/or tenants getting booted so the price can be reset.
Long term effect has to be rentals aren’t worth as much (capital decrease) or the price of them goes up to cover the risk of not being able to pass on price increases. Reckon it will be the latter and make things worse. But at the polls he is playing to the renting demographic.
Work on supply or demand to solve it.
Looks like he is going after supply as well and going to lock councils out of decision making and try and get the density up. I’d prefer no population growth.
