So if rent 2000 it decreases by what a couple dollars???

well when the average price of rent is say $1000 a month then the government comes in and gives vouchers to immigrants for $1300/month the rent is going to increase to $1300 average.
If those vouchers are removed the rent will go down.

Yep. This is why UBI and $25 minimum wage are such stupid ideas. All that will do is cause inflation and people with real jobs would not get commensurate raises.

Eventually. I'm concerned it would take a long time to get to the point that it would benefit citizens who need it, like young adults just starting out.

It's true. It's an anecdotal story, but relevant here.
A year ago, I knew a few families that were looking to rent in my area and there were only ever one or two rent homes available and the monthly cost was around $1200-1400 per. Keep in mind, this is a town with an average household income of $27-28K/yr. Per household, not even kidding.
Just last week, Mrs. Axe started helping a coworker look around for a rental home and there were a dozen listed, all in good shape and all for between $800-900/mo.
The Trump effect has tricked down bigly on that one.

Sorry to disappoint you but it isn't due to deportations, it is the continuation of a trend that has been happening for years.
Except for the 2 years it was flat before Trump took office. That's half the graph. How did you not see it?

As you can see by the comments in this thread, this is bad because only millenials rent and us boomers are too lazy to cut our own grass

Any expert who opines that the removal of demand raises prices should lose their job
You appear to be confused, or didn't actually read it.
Multiple experts have been clear that the removal of supply , in this case skilled construction workers, would raise costs.
About 20% of all construction workers are undocumented. It would be naive to pretend that a material reduction in labor supply would not have an effect on costs. When you factor in the fact that there is already a significant shortage in construction labor, and housing supply, a small shift in labor supply would affect costs. This applies to many industries, which is why early this year Trump paused raids on farms and hotels.
For deportations to have an effect on housing prices there would have to be a significant increase in resident deportations, which would drive down demand.

Hasn't worked in Dallas. My rent on a 600 square foot apartment has gone from $1050 to $1600 in the last 4.5 years

Lots of fact and data from across the political spectrum in the links I provided. What details did you disagree with?

Those are rookie numbers. We need more deportations and no H-1B’s and 50 year mortgages.

The minute I see NBC news I can give a 80/20 shot that it's crap.
I'm not clicking the link to it or to whatever that other shite is.
Is that the whole graph you posted?

uh, the fact you have dismissed the basic law of economics supply and demand.
And maybe the fact that there will little need for entry level dwellings when 20 million will be available in the next few years.
lastly, tell your daddy to stop with the bots, your divisive posts are a dead giveaway.

However, a new study co-authored by a University of Utah business scholar concludes such a policy would likely backfire because it would drain the construction workforce, significantly slowing an already sluggish rate of new residential construction.
This is retarded. We let in an unprecedented number of immigrants in under Biden and we already had a sluggish rate of new construction.
It’s not that hard to figure out.
