What is the “problem” in this market?
There is shortage of apartments at the controlled price! There are fewer apartments available than would be true if the rents were not controlled. Losers – landlords, students that can’t find apartments, students that can find apartments but must “pay” higher costs. Winners – the whiners. How can tenants “pay” more in this market? Under the table payments. Sub-leasing. Special deposits (perhaps non-refundable). Reduced quality. “Unfair” discrimination. Parking, and other, fees.
