Price controls are always inefficient partly because they incentivise the landlord to compensate for risks in other ways. Some examples:Demanding a higher deposit,Setting an income threshold for considering tenants or only permitting those from certain occupations,Non-financial barriers such as demanding extensive references or requiring more intrusive monitoring of the property while it's occupied.If these other avenues are closed off, the landlord may exit the market. The home would probably be taken by an owner-occupier instead, reducing the supply of rental properties.
>>524357790the landlord may also sell it. and now blackrock kikes own it forever
Thanks chatGPT

>>524357790Rent controlled apartments in NYC are gobbled up and held by millionaires, kept in the family in perpetuity, some held for decades approaching a century. NY Dems taking care of themselves. The city is a fucking toilet. My suburb property is going to skyrocket.
>>524358000There's no reason it has to be "affordable" to live in nyc. Should diamonds be "affordable" too? Move somewhere cheaper idiots.
how do landlords cope when maintenance cost and taxes always go up?.
>>524357790These posts are so unbelievably ignorant. NYC has been doing rent control for decades and it works fine. Mamdani is not introducing anything new, but merely broadening an existing system. The entire plot of 'Friends' is around Monica inheriting her grandma's rent controlled apartment that she could not possibly hope to afford otherwise and that was from the 1990s. Chuds stay dumb as rocks, as usual.
>>524358088We should get rid of rent control so the browns suffer.
>>524358083>why does rent rise
>>524358139Yeah no, you're just enriching landlords even more then and rents are already absurd in NYC, average 'luxury' apartment in commuting distance of Manhattan is now at $5k/month
>>524358182so don't rent that apartment. No one owes you an affordable spot in one of the wealthiest megacities on earth
>>524358235Landlords shouldn't buy real estate then, no one owes them a profitable spot in that city either.
>>524358235The point is that $5k/month is silly and just greedy profiteering. NYC has one of the best job markets on the planet, but landlords gatekeep that because they can. Rent control and forced affordable apartments are the only mechanism city government has to counteract gouging by landlords, short of going full communist and just seizing property
>>524357790>The home would probably be taken by an owner-occupier instead,this is bad how?
>>524357790I think the fact of the matter is that the rent is too God damn motherfycking high and if this gay Indian dork can get it down then amazing. So much real estate in NYC is held by billionaires who are never even there, all of these super luxury condo buildings are empty. Many of them are just money laundering/organized crime. NYC is a very complicated case but I do support him because he’s willing to call out the issue, financial extortion and rent seeking, hopefully he can do something about it.
>>524358332then you must be excited about Mamdani
>>524357790Ok, so control all of those things too. Literally anything can be written into law. You want your rent to jump up $1000 next year or what? Literal retard or you're a landkike yourself.
>>524357790>Just don't do anything goy, I promise I'll find some way around it>Never forget you're helpless
>>524358404>reducing the supply of rental propertiesthis is not good if you want cheaper rent
>>524358415He's good because he's got the corpo democrats scared that they're losing control of the party and that means the gerontocracy of 80 year olds running it might finally be forced out. I doubt Mamdani is going to actually accomplish anything, because Kathy Hochul will ensure that he doesn't, so the wealthy donors aren't inconvenienced in any way. He was far better than the alternatives, Eric Adams was legitimately the most corrupt mayor NYC has ever had.
>>524358063Couldn’t agree more anon. My point is that the rich Dems hoard these controlled apartment because they are thieving Jews. Let the other Jew landlords make their money.
>>524358407>So much real estate in NYC is held by billionaires who are never even there, all of these super luxury condo buildings are empty.One of the problems is landlords in NYC are allowed to count unoccupied space as "losses", and deduct them from their taxes.So they actually make MORE money by having a space listed for 5000$ with nobody in it, than having the same space listed for 3000$ with someone in it.That's why there is so much unoccupied retail and commercial space in NYC. Landlords absolutely refuse to lower their rates, one of the major reasons being the tax benefits to unoccupied "losses".
>>524357790Zohran Mamdani is proof that Indian people are very smart
>>524357790Landchad here. All of these things happened after rent control laws were passed in 2020 here, ending in the constant exit of rental units from the permanent market to airbnbs and other temporary, black market options. After Milei's deregulation in 2023, the market recovered its normal amount of permanent rental units and the prices, adjusted for inflation, actually went down.
>>524358088Rent control has been a problem for decades because the people who have the apartments don’t need the discount. Ed Koch had a rent controlled apartment, Rangel had two. Sharpton, Dinkins, DeBlasio’s wife, etc.
>>524358627>ending in the constant exit of rental units from the permanent market to airbnbsShort-term rentals are banned in NYC and this is well-enforced, so unlike backwater third-world countries like Argentina, this is not a thing in NYC
>>524358317This post could only be made by a dumb nigger.
>>524358664Ok? The vast majority of people with rent controlled apartments are deserving. Just because a small percentage are in the hands of undeserving people doesn't mean the system should be torn down.
>>524358063>Move somewhere cheaper idiots.Sounds like an easy way to completely fuck up the economy in NYC. People want to live and work generally close to each other, having affordable rent means people get to have more spending money to do what they want. If people followed your advice then I'm pretty sure business districts would just collapse because who the fuck wants to travel 2+ hours to and back from work everyday?
>>524357790Things that are required for survival shouldn't be for-profit. The reason being that people will pay anything for them which means that the people with those resources can charge almost whatever they want and cause you to go into bankruptcy. Things that are required for survival are things like food, shelter, healthcare, and education. Wanting people to have reasonable access to these things shouldn't be a controversial opinion but it is because people want to "own the libs" even if it means people die because of it.
>>524358566so based to see empty luxury condos while homeless losers suffer and bleeding hearts cry
>>524358332You cannot be this clueless. If the rents get out of control then the market will crumble. If wealthy people want to live in a wealthy section without some roach next to them they should be able to buy it.
>>524358506Diblasio most corrupt, not close.
>>524358729Economies are self correcting as long as total retards aren't micro managing everything. If the business district starts to suffer you'll see rent come down, or you'll see the urban centers or our country crumble because they are run by gay communist vaginas.
>>524358731homeless people seem to be surviving just fine. Wish they weren't desu
>>524358665Will the jew muslim control "empty" units too? Will he also check if your wives cunthole is also not being used rn and deemed fit for communal use?
>>524358689All the "nobody owes you" posts are directed towards young white males. You want to work? Nobody owes you a job. You want a wage you can live on? Nobody owes you survival. You want your boomer parents who were given everything by the previous generation to help you? Nobody owes you coddling. You however owe everyone everything. You owe it to the economy to work two jobs and be underpaid and overworked at both, you owe it to your parents who already reverse mortgaged your family home to take care of them when they squander everything in their old age, you owe your landlord 75% of your income plus tip as rent. The kike landlord class however must be protected at all costs because the world is nothing if we can't make precious whimsical rabbinical slumlords like Shmuel Landbergblatt smile by deregulating further because one percent of one jew's profit margin is worth fifty white goyslave lives.
>>524358566Somebody needs to make that illegal. We can’t cater to the feelings of somebody that greedy, you have to help the people by ensuring they have affordable necessities such as food and housing. People who put forward that will win, whether they are on the right or the left.
>>524358693You dumb fuck, you can’t touch a rent-controlled apartment in NYC, most are owned and rented by people who don’t even live there but want a place to spend the night in the city when they run in for a show. Go try to get one. Hire a lawyer and a professional, then get into a bidding war with a guy who has more cash than you’ll ever earn. These properties are like fucking gold; people with money buy gold, not you.
>>524358918do people owe some single dude that can't get laid a girlfriend?
>>524358918Dude, this thread doesn’t apply to you. You’ll be a low-income dork forever because you are financially inept. Move to a Calcutta slum and live like the third-worlder you are.
>>524358970>>524359078Yup, when confronted they just run the playbook - more insults, more leading questions. Engaging with points is death.
>>524359078>low-income dork>Calcutta slum and live like the third-worlder you arekek
>>524359154Then make a point. Find a listing in NYC for a rent-stabilized apartment and get back to me… and while you’re at it, grab me a list of rent stabilized apartment tenants/owners because it is a “who’s who” of NY Dems.
>>524358962>you can’t touch a rent-controlled apartment in NYCYou don't seem to know how the system works. Rent controlled apartments are handed out via random lottery. This specifically avoids wealthy people being able to hoard them.https://propertyrecordsofnewyork.com/nyc-opens-affordable-housing-lottery-with-rents-under-500/
>>524358786Kind of a crazy opinion when Adams had to be pardoned from federal charges for taking bribes from a foreign country. Adams also was known for attempting to bribe journalists with literal brown paper bags of money. De Blasio was nowhere near that corrupt. The greatest irony was Adams wasn't even good at corruption, unlike someone like Trump.
>>524358949Landlords donate heavily to political campaigns to make themselves untouchable. The only solution is to ban donations from anyone remotely related to the property industry. Australia has started experimenting with that in the past few years. Taking property donations is the quickest way to government that no longer represents the people.
>>524359396Lolololololololololol
>>524358918>You want your boomer parents who were given everything by the previous generation to help you? Nobody owes you coddling.Exactly, nobody owes millennials or gen z anything. Except boomers were given everything for free or very cheap and then pulled up the ladder behind them, making sure no future generation would get the same favorable deal they got. Worst generation ever.

>>524359433Adam’s stopped being the Dem party’s house-nigger and was Indicted for accepting airline tickets (actually being comped to first-class for tickets he purchased). DiBlasio’s wife made off with north of $1 billion.
>>524359655>DiBlasio’s wife made off with north of $1 billion.What crimes were committed by Bill in order for this to happen?
>>524359655>DiBlasio’s wife made off with north of $1 billion.This is just idiotic nonsense. ThriveNYC was running for years and took 250k mental health phone calls per year. They had shitty record keeping, they did not steal anything.And Adams took far more than airline tickets and then had a quid-pro-quo arrangement with the Turkish government where he advocated on their behalf without disclosing his financial incentives for doing so, operating as an unregistered agent or a foreign government, while simultaneously occupying the mayoral role.
>>524359641>get paid to kill homeless Kek nobody's paying you shit
>>524359720He appointed his wife head of “ThriveNYC” and she “mis-managed” funds — same shit that Bernie Sanders wife did at her college. Adam’s biggest scandal was plopping his brother into an $850,000/yr job running NYC’s parking lots.
>>524359884>Adam’s biggest scandalPretty major omission to ignore the federal charges he was facing which Trump had to pardon him for.
>>524359493Yes, the influence of money on politics is very severe in America. Those who pay get access, those who don’t have no voice. Again it’s just a case of getting enough people to demand that congress change the law, tip the scales of justice back in the favor of the common man.
>>524359795C’mon, you can’t be for real; it was a scandal, not “shitty record keeping”. DiBlasio got the punishment that all Dems give themselves for being stupid — they can’t play the game anymore… just ask Cuomo. All NYC “mis-management” is just thievery for the Dems. Adam’s didn’t play ball enough and got hung out to dry. Same thing will happen to Mamdani if he bucks the system.
>>524360005The charges were only brought against him because he was making noise about his city being over run with illegals. Why didn’t NYC or NY pursue charges and insulate it from Trump’s pardon?
>>524360198The charges were being pursued from SDNY, which is effectively a state office prosecuting him. >The charges were only brought against him because he was making noise about his city being over run with illegalsAnd this is such dumb regurgitation of a highly partisan narrative. The people weren't even illegal. Venezuelans were on asylum parole awaiting their immigration hearings, they were entirely legally in the city. Annoying as fuck and a plague of locusts on the city, but legal. Biden's dems tried to crack down on asylum parole rules but were blocked by the GOP, to ensure Trump had something to campaign on for 2024. The congressional GOP couldn't allow immigration to be fixed before the election, otherwise Trump would not have returned to power.
>>524360280Trump can’t pardon for state prosecution and crimes, so make up your mind. Highly partisan? You sound like a fucking shill hiding behind your meme flag. Adams’s bitched about illegals; Biden went nuts and pursued trumped up charges on him. Personally, idgaf because they are all corrupt scumbags and NYC is swirling the drain. Nice link to the rent controlled apartments in Queens (not Manhattan); you should apply for one and keep track of who wins the “lottery”.
>>524360460>You sound like a fucking shill hiding behind your meme flag>Australian flag = meme flagquality American education system strikes again
>>524357790>incentivise the landlord to compensate for risks in other waysThen just make it illegal for them to do those things
>>524360684Trump said this after confirming Mamdani did indeed have a micropenis
>>524360490Yes, quality education; I can spot a shill hiding behind a flag where he is not located. Tell me again how Trump pardoned a case brought by the “state level” SDNY. You are a fool. SDNY is (was) a tool for the Biden administration and the case was a joke. Biden took the same comps as a senator for himself and his family.
>>524360945>Biden took the same comps as a senator for himself and his family.>Biden also operated as an unregistered agent of a foreign government with a quid-pro-quo arrangementwhat a dumb fucking thing to sayAlso I lived in NYC for years, I live back here now because the US is an open air insane asylum nowadays, and you are doing nothing to disprove that
>>524360999>CheckedBiden is more corrupt than any of them. As for Adam’s, his corruption is on par with all of the shit Dem mayors of NYC, trying to single him out is a joke. Did Letitia lie about her primary residence? Biden literally operated as a Burisma agent for his son. I’ve lived in NYC all my life. Stay in your shithole and get bullied by your rulers.
>>524361795>Did Letitia lie about her primary residence?The courts found she didn't actually. Even worse, after the Leticia case was dismissed, the press found Trump actually did lie about his primary residence to get a mortgage.https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9d9gyxewyxohttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/09/trump-mortgage-records-primary-dwelling>I’ve lived in NYC all my lifeLong Island or Staten Island is not NYC. And you seem really dumb and poorly informed, so perhaps ease up on the NYPost. It's melting your brain.
>>524361855States Island (Kings County) and Long Island (literally where Queens and Brooklyn are isn’t NYC? Letitia case was dropped because the new prosecutor did not have authority; she will be charged again. Trump did not lie about a primary residence, he was said he overvalued his residence. Get your shilling straight.

>>524358083They should just kill themselves and let the house be auctioned off by the county assessors office.
>>524357790
>>524357790Of course it's retarded. Prices are decided by supply and demand. If they go too high, it's because there's not enough supply.The fix to that is to look at what's bottlenecking the supply (like retarded regulations) and fixing that, not to simply change the price by law. At that point, you fixed neither demand nor supply, you just made the whole situation worse.
