Rent control coming to an apartment near you

I knew this was coming. Not only is the real estate market white hot here in the Silicon Valley, but so is the rental market. With an average rent in this valley currently at $2,230, there are many in this area crying foul and are now demanding the City San Jose do something about it. This past Wednesday both renters and landlords alike met at city council for a heated debate. It seems the city council is not looking to make a decision just yet, but when they do their decision could have long term impact on the future of affordable housing here in the valley.
