Question: how can voluntary arrangement solve the problem without state implemented politics of plunder?

Answer: Remove the rent price control. With this simple removal of this single type of control, the free market is suddenly restored. Without the rent control, people can bid on living space, the landlords are allowed to take the highest bid upon said living space, and if they are ever outbid in the future, the landlord has now the option to take that bid.

Without the rent control, there would be more, nicer housing available for people with a smaller income. They would be able to afford good, clean living quarters and remain within their budget. Contractors and landlords would be encouraged to upkeep their buildings so that their tenants will stay and pay more for the apartments. This would allow the proprietor to expand, which in turn attracts more tenants.
