      The residents can also become homeless.

      If that happens, they tend to hang out in parks.

    Forgive my ignorance, but an apartment where the landlord is removed and people just pay building maintenance is… a condominium, no?

      If they don’t individually own the property but pay for upkeep and there is no landlord… that’s a housing cooperative, no?

      Squatter mansion.

    Making people in society feel like they own nothing and are getting milked by those few who do own everything is a good way to see things break down, it’s happening real time, we’re watching it right now in the US.

    I would have preferred to have it solvable through policy or something. A giant business, with high earning employees would of course raise the average rent if not regulated. I find it rather amusing, that it actually happened in the game as well without being explicitly build in.

      Considering you likely live in the same building/complex as your landlord, I wouldn’t recommend it.

        Honest mistake, but you’re probably thinking of a superintendent. They are usually an employee of the landlord, and do things like collect the landlord’s rents and sometimes fix appliances, etc.
