You got downvoted but this is true.

It's not a deliberate relationship, but housing prices correlate with homelessness. If landlords and property owners see their properties increase in value, that means that people on the margins are becoming homeless.

Landlords want to keep people homeless ...

Landlords ... who make money from people paying to rent their units, want to deliberately keep would-be customers from handing over their money.
