Hi,

What is the most common result of rent control laws?

B-few low income high need renters benefit from the program

The correct option is B

Rent control laws set limits on how much landlords can charge for rent. The rent control laws specify:

• What types of properties qualify for rent control.

• How often rent limits can be adjusted.

• How rental limits can be adjusted. Most rent control laws link increases in rent limits to an annual percentage of inflation in a local consumer price index.

• The conditions when a property becomes "out of control."

• The tenant's eviction restrictions with rent control.

There are no federal rent control laws given that the US Supreme Court. UU ruled that rent regulation is a state issue. Most states do not have regulated rent control laws. Only some cities and communities in some states continue to apply them.
