A 2-3%\u00a0<em>increase<\/em> is normal. Rents nosedived, according to Apartment List because of the COVID pandemic, the most in the above listed cities. COVID likely can be blamed for the national downward trend, but I think there are some other significant, common sense factors causing the dramatic drop off in several of these cities.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll also notice some significant non-COVID similarities in the worst ten cities for property owners. All ten cities were beset by violent protests last summer. All of these cities have also seen large increases in the overall crime rate. Many of these cities have activist district attorneys who have promised not to prosecute many crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently people don&#8217;t want to live in places like San Francisco, where the city (with federal money)<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-may-pick-up-the-tab-for-san-francisco-homeless-hotels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> is putting up homeless drug addicts in hotels<\/a> and where the DA (former personal translator for a brutal communist dictator, the son of two convicted terrorists and raised by the leaders of a domestic terrorist organization) promises not to prosecute crime. Seattle had a weeks-long chunk of the city, including a taxpayer owned police station, become a breakaway state with deadly consequences. Similarly, Minneapolis still has a couple block no-go zone around the site of George Floyd&#8217;s death.<\/p>\n<p>Naw, this is all COVID&#8217;s fault. Damn Trump and his poor leadership.
