Do ppl think landlords are out here personally building houses themselves
They& #39;re taking homes that already exist off the market so that they can make folks pay, by design, more than they paid for it, keeping housing in a cycle of increasing prices where renters are unable to save up to buy a home themselves due to increasing rent and also house prices
You& #39;d be able to get something reasonably priced if not for landlords

And they& #39;re constantly acquiring more and more housing in your city, making it harder and harder to find something to actually buy and live in, keeping you in a cycle of rent
They didn& #39;t build that house that thing was already there, being cheap
Also never forget we have multitudes more empty homes than homeless people, and yes that includes in whatever city you& #39;re thinking of. San Francisco, New York, nationally and locally we have empty unlived in spaces many times over how many people don& #39;t have somewhere to live
