I suspect that will be a net negative for anyone who needs to rent because they cannot afford a mortgage, maintenance cost, insurance, contribution to shared infrastructure like plumbing and electrical, and taxes together.
I considered renting an apartment in two different commune-owned buildings (I was a student, not looking to own). Both were just as expensive and in significantly worse condition than all of the neighboring housing options. I found w nice place, but would have been better off with a slumlord rent-seeker than either of those places.
