True dat.
At the Nolibs zoning meeting last month, a landlord who was presenting a project (a house + studio + rental unit) mentioned that he's DECREASED rent for good tenants multiple times in the past just because he didn't want to deal with the hassle associated with turnover.
There are a lot of people in this city renting out units at rates that cover their pre-boom mortgages. Many could command much hire prices if they were willing to force the turnover.
