To put more restrictions on rent <br />control than the state issued is taking it too far and unnecessary. <br />Rents in Santa Ana are for the most part lower than the county average. <br />The rent control would put Santa Ana property owners at a disadvantage forever, and while it may lower the <br />rent increase for a period it will also give automatic increases to all rental tenants even those that an increase <br />was not planned, even those at market. It would lower the increased amount but give it to many others that <br />would not have received it. <br />So many talks about fixing the rental market, why not fix the housing market. Stop investors from buying <br />single family homes, and have them sell them to single families in the next 2 years. This will cause the housing <br />market to drop prices to single family not 12-20 people on a loan to renters can afford and suitable housing is <br />built instead of cramming -large number of apartments and condos on our already densed city. <br />
