That sounds about right, TBH. Point being is there will be rent hikes. Renters should not assume that property tax hikes are only a property owner’s problem.

Of course, but if they're rent-controlled then they might be well protected since the city uses CPI and don't take taxes into account as far as I know for allowable rent increases.

Very few are actually lucky enough to be in a rent-controlled apartment. They should count their blessings that they’re well shielded from this massacre. For everyone else renting at market rate or a homeowner, you’re all getting fucked.
Rent controlled apartments are a very small part of the overall market.

Landlords can apply for a hardship increase in order to increase the rent past 4%. There are a few rules around that though.
