Some might call me a landlord but I think of myself as a housing provider. I’ve acquired and operated residential rental properties, and I’ve also built them from scratch. The government didn’t do this — I did it. The government allowed me to operate in a free market and on a level playing field where I could develop a business and manage the risk.
But that has changed. The government has now commandeered the market and tilted the playing field against me and yet I’m expected to continue to play the game. As if!
And now Prop 33 seeks to further distort the rules such that I would no longer have even a remotely fair chance to succeed as a housing provider.
