Rent control ultimately harms the very people it seeks to help through its unintended consequences; as rent control distorts market forces, tends to limit new construction and creates a vicious cycle of issues around maintenance and competing rights. But only the objective and informed see that reality; although believers in free enterprise may intuit that truth.<\/p>\n<p><b>There are better approaches for all involved<\/b>.
