The New York City Rent Guidelines Board is set to vote on rent increases for over one million rent-stabilized apartments, with the mayor advocating for a rent freeze to help tenants burdened by high housing costs. Experts warn that freezing rents could harm building maintenance, reduce rental supply, and make affordability worse by discouraging landlords from maintaining or returning vacant units to the market. Critics highlight that rising operating costs, including insurance, challenge the feasibility of rent freezes, and argue that such policies may lead to fewer rental options and higher market rents in the long term.
