Let’s hope new St. Paul city council looks at actual evidence, and ignores anecdotes from activists and text book theories from college kids that got us in the horrible situation we are in now with housing under rent control
I spoke to an owner today who sold a building in 2015 in Harlem. It sold for $215,00 per unit and had 0 violations. Today it has 380 open violations, is in the AEP program, and would sell for about 90k per unit based off a building that sold across the street. In ten years the building went from functioning and well kept to falling apart and virtually worthless. What changed? The 2019 rent law. Who benefits? Certainly not the renters. There’s no hope for this building under the current rent stabilization system. The renters inside it are trapped and its a disgrace.

2 million on study, finally have a plan, city council says no we want something else, that requires support from community, community are asked, zero people support the city council plan - and they still can’t move forward - Trump victory explained

You know it’s a fair and common sense deal when both the far left wing and far right wing morons are mad about - job well done to the house leaders - it was past time to end the dispute and move forward
