But clearly society values them less than a traditionally built home so one down side is, don't expect the same level of appreciation (which is why they are cheaper). 

Both are VERY familiar with the machinations of the bad actors in the Real Estate field.It really is a problem that should NOT have every occurred and because it was certainly very prevalent, here in NYC especially, you will create leaders who will want to put a stop on these kinds of bad actors.It's very similar in the way that we should not abandon our Allies as you will create more enemies.In this case, the Rent-Controlled Renters are our Allies but they felt abandoned, at least, here in NYC.Again, these bad actors have also made it difficult for me to maximize my own profits on legitimate Market Rate Buildings as they illegally added market rate supply of buildings that should not have become Market rate.IF they did not get away with their bad behavior, I would have certainly have done even better than I have already done over the last 21 years I have been investing in NYC Real Estate.To me, these bad actors stole my profits and opportunities as a result of shifting the mindset of the renter class to be anti-Landlord while they reaped the illegal gains.Again, I am not saying ALL Landlords are bad.... but certainly "All Landlords are Good" is untrue.AND, as I pointed out, many of the bad landlords controlled a significant share of rent controlled apts to make a difference in our political atmosphere.We are in our potential Universal Rent Control situation for a reason that could have been prevented.

The functional necessity of having a car that will start every single time you turn that key, guaranteed, which is the reason most people have always stated is why they drive almost new cars and pay their car payment, has been largely removed from our society.
