While I agree that many land lords are predatory, there are reasons that people want to rent sometimes. To give one example, should a college kid be required to buy a home to have a place to live during college?
I’m not going to give more examples right now because it’s not really worth my time but there are good reasons that someone might want to rent and that necessitates that there are places available to be rented.
I’d argue for limits on ownership and significant progressive property taxes for ownership beyond a certain number of units.
Yeah, my neighbor rents her house while she is living somewhere else for work. She’s about to retire, so she’ll be moving back soon. But she always rented to folks who needed short term living, traveling nurses, graduate students, etc. She charges significantly less than what the market calls for, and she also comes and handles minor repairs. The landlord, people are angry about are the ones who hoard massive amounts of property. The industry just needs to be regulated.
