FarmKat on Nostr: Women, children, and the elderly are being hit hard by all the insane apartment rent ...

Women, children, and the elderly are being hit hard by all the insane apartment rent increases. People with jobs are sleeping in their cars because they can't afford an apartment.

If you live in the U.S. and have been wondering why the rents have gotten so unbearably high, a big reason is apparently Private Equity Firms.

They are buying up huge amounts of residential properties and squeezing the tenants for every penny they can get away with.

These firms are worldwide so I'm sure these practices are too.
