Renters vs. Owners...Why is it always a see-saw?

Many San Franciscans view it as a battle, a turf war.... the topic being  "renter goals" and "owner goals".

The Board of Supervisors has to pick  one side or the other, so it seems...  We, due due to our  political system, view things as "us vs. them"...

What if ways were devised, with the goal being "A real win-win for both sides"..., in any given scenario.

Renters fight to see that the supply of "rent-controlled rental units is not shrunken, by conversion of those units to either condos or "TenancyInCommon units".    Why not create an algorithm that would fund the creation of new, "rent controlled units", from the profits of converting old ones to "owner units, either condo or TIC.?"....

This is what I am working on, with,...I think....Supervisor Scott Wiener, of the SF Board of Supervisors.

If you have comments, complaints,  ideas, and so on, or want to be on a "Renters-Owners Win-Win"
mailing list...

drop us a line.
