    Based on inflation? Really?

    Either this is true and someone lived for like 35 years in a place, or it’s an anti landlord load of crap.

    There are plenty of honest reasons to be against landlords without having to invent them.

      She could be talking about a 30 year change.

      Im 40. When I was 20 I rented my first apartment for $300.

      That was 2005.

      That apartment is now renting for $700. Rural Illinois.

      So that’s just in 20 years. In rural areas.

      In cities it’s been way worse.
