Ireland launched a campaign against greedy landlords with rent control, 52% tax, no deductions, no evictions.
They succeeded & landlords left the market in droves
Now there are 716 homes available to rent in the entire country and 150 queued for this one bed yesterday.

In Canada the maximum possible payout from the Canada pension plan is $1,368. The average payout is $758 a month.
Americans get an average of $1,707 & a maximum of $3,627 in USD.
They only have to work 10 years to qualify too.

If you want to make rentals readily available, make rental income tax free. It's unpalatable, but do we want readily available and affordable housing or do we want to crush greedy landlords.

1st Step - Make landlords declare the rents being charged
2nd step - Ban increasing that rent
They do this in Ireland by making landlords register tenancies & publish the rent. Tenants can look up the rent and appl for a refund if they were charged more.
Failure to register
Trudeau announces the creation of a new Canadian Renters' Bill of Rights, with a requirement that renters would know a unit’s rental price history…so more red tape/ bureaucracy?

Because people keep asking why landlords selling makes a difference to housing stock
Lots of people asking why landlords selling up would reduce stock. Just means people were able to buy cheap!
No, because a rental may have 4+ tenants, while owner occupied houses usually have just two occupants.
Occupancy is reduced with a heavy home ownership ratio

52% is the tax on rental income. They pay stamp duty on the way in, 7% i think, and then 33% cap gains tax on the way out.
Rent control tied to the unit, so if you buy a place you can only charge rent 2% above the rate the prior tenant was paying. Forces rent increases yearly
