Скачать или смотреть Tenant Rights, Eviction & Rent: What New Research Reveals About the Housing Market

What really happens when cities expand tenant protections?

Do eviction restrictions make rent more affordable—or less? And how do landlords respond?

In this episode, we dive into a compelling new study from The Journal of Urban Economics, co-authored by Professor Ed Coulson of UC Irvine’s Paul Merage School of Business, alongside Thao Le (Georgia State University), Victor Ortego Marti (UC Riverside), and Lily Shen (Clemson University).

🎙️ Their paper, "Tenant Rights, Eviction, and Rent Affordability: Understanding the Trade-offs," brings new insight into one of today’s most pressing urban issues: housing stability vs. housing affordability.

🔍 What you’ll learn:
The real effect of tenant protections on eviction rates
Why rent tends to rise—even when supply doesn’t fall
How landlord behavior challenges common policy assumptions
The nuanced trade-offs cities must consider in housing legislation

💡 “It’s neither good nor bad to change landlord-tenant laws. It’s about what outcomes matter most to you.” —Prof. Ed Coulson
