This will turn out badly. Corporate landlords won&#x27;t be able to lobby quite so fiercely against new construction, upzoning and rent controls. Otoh, their cost of capital is lower, and they are more efficient managers than individual homeowners, so this might be a more efficient way of providing housing.<p>One useful thing though is that corporate owners dont need to sell, so transaction and mtg taxes will be lower over the long term
