What's the alternative here? Only letting big companies without any ethical regards rent housing?

Sure, there's a good argument to be made that housing is essential to survive and as such should be provided by the government, but that's not the world we live in. In this society, it's likely someone is going to have to rent it out and I'd rather it be a person who actually gives a shit and can be held responsible rather than some faceless corporation.

Actually in my experience faceless corporations tend to follow the rules much more stringently.
