    • Daily Journal

      Biden’s ‘moderate’ rent control policy unlikely to see daylight

      This article covers President Biden’s recent proposal to cap rent increases to no more than 5% on properties held by corporate landlords. San Francisco Construction & Real Estate Litigation partners Ashley Klein and Jeanne Grove and counsel Morgan Cahill-Marsland are quoted in the coverage. Jeanne and Morgan note that the policy would disincentivize investment in rental units and cause existing investors to question whether they should remain in the market. Ashley adds that federal efforts would be better spent on incentivizing housing production.
