There is no need to put a ceiling on how big rental companies can be. Does it seem so sad to know that most of this property goes into the pockets of capitalists while there is a lack of housing for people or am I possibly thinking this wrong.

    1. If they rent these apartments out it increases supply on the rental market, that lowers rents. The idea that this is a bad thing is based on the assumption that owning is somehow always better than renting, which it isnt.

    2. Væri almenningur að kaupa þessar íbúðir ef leigufélögin væru ekki að því?
