Overall, this is a complex issue. Attempts to ease the burden of high rents/bills on households are crucial to tackle the CoL crisis. But so are mitigation measures targeting the supply side (in this case, landlords). Otherwise, rent controls can do more harm than good. 7/7

For this reason, rent controls should be accompanied by policies that mitigate effects on landlords, so that they continue to invest in rental housing (instead of selling/converting properties). Building new homes also helps, but not in the case of a short-term freeze. 6/7

It is tempting to think rent controls make housing more affordable. It does, but for fewer people, and with lower quality dwellings, and many more undesired side-effects, unless they’re accompanied by other measures, writes @bodanieli: buff.ly/3mWCzrR via @EconObservatory
