You know, if most landlords quit, their property doesn't end up in your hands. It ends up bought by a smaller number of more organized corporate landlords. Do you want an oligopoly? Because that's how you get an oligopoly.

    Uhhh, there’s also the ROAD To Housing Act, which punishes corporate ownership of homes; so they’re fighting that too.

    Yeah everyone seems to think the properties will end up in the hands of owner/occupiers. What likely will happen is they will get snapped up by corporates. The bigger they get the worse it will be. There are some shitty individual landlords out there for sure but I can guarantee that EVERY corporate one will be evil incarnate... law of unintended consequences will slam hard here
