    Ahh, so what you’re actually saying is rent freezes discourage landlords from renovating their property (with their tenant’s money) and charging more rent afterwards?

    Most people struggling to pay rent want a place that’s functional, not one that’s lavish. Once everyone has a functional place to live for a fair price, then we can focus on frivolities.

      Yes, of course, we’re comparing spending more money to improve the property and charging more for it to doing nothing.

      Who would improve the property out of just good will? They have a business to run
