Episode notes
Renters in our state will tell you affordable apartments are scarce, and because of inflation many residents are being priced out. The Biden administration expressed interest in a federal form of rent control, capping annual rent-increases at 5-percent. Would that type of measure stabilize our market, and would it protect low and fixed-income families? What about the lack of inventory in Southern Nevada? Would a rent-control mandate discourage developers from building new properties? Our Vegas Verdict panel will debate pros and cons.
