    I’m sorry, why are we operating under the assumption that apartments=rentals? It’s not a given at all, even taking into consideration that there is quite a lot of systems where you are not renting from private landlords but from the city/cooperative

      I’ve always heard that apartments are what you rent, and condos are what you buy. Besides, if the Republicans are on board, it’s because they see a path to fleece the little guy out of even more money.

        I just got educated that it’s cultural differences - it’s perfectly normal to own an apartment where I come from (Poland)
