Someone needs to teach this English twit well-nigh the concept of supply and demand.

Landlords weren't allowed to ask for rent for months during the lockdowns.
I suppose the twit thinks they somehow got used to non making money, so they should continue to requite their tenants free housing.
Plus they should give each of their renters a unicorn as well.

They are full-on Communists who pino for Venezuala and so, ultimately, Kingdom of cambodia.

Greedy politicians have caused inflation, thus high rents.

Just guessing, but JO probably didn’t push any coin back across the table for any of his employment contracts.

The hire waiver during COVID said “payment for rent could only exist initiated by the renter to get the rent money. So landlords of course had to sit and expect until and if the renter wanted to get the rent money. Time was of no consideration to the renter as they couldn’t be evicted and government was going to give them the rent money and then they were in no hurry to initiate.
In the meantime, landlords had to set, repair their rentals, pay taxes, mortgage, etc all without whatever rent money.

Nosotros take a big ranch home with 3 beds and 2 baths hither on the homestead we have rented out . It is now sitting empty and is probable to be that way . We lost close to vi thousand bucks this twelvemonth already from theft and destruction of belongings not to mention they screwed u.s.a. repeatedly on the rent . We requite upwards . If in that location are decent renters out at that place we haven’t found them notwithstanding . EMT’s going up the drive at 3am to shoot ane of their kids up with narcan for an overdose . Twice in 1 calendar week . It isn’t worth the grief . We rented information technology for much less than we could accept in this neighborhood and still they still destroyed and stole us blind .

Exactly.
Their favorite give-and-take is “selfish” regarding “capitalists”.
Never once is it applied to the lazy bums they insist need complimentary welfare.

Bingo. This did tremendous damage. Regardless what the human activity or rental contract said, the landlord no longer owned their own property. Current landlords have no idea if/when a hire moratorium will exist invoked again.

That’due south your problem correct there. I know you lot were probably just trying to exist nice, but that attracts a certain kind of renter.

The greediest matter on the face of earth is Government! It is clamorous and not discipline to supply and demand forces. They squeeze every drop out of their peasants simply shy of a true revenue enhancement revolt.
