      Högre hyror leder ofta till omflyttning, och det vi forskare kallar för bortträngning eller renovräkning, i de fall hyreshöjningarna kommit till i samband med standardhöjande renoveringar. Och renovräkningar lär vi ser mer av framöver om riskkapitalisterna, som FN varnat den svenska regeringen för nyligen, får spela fritt på bostadsmarknaden.
      Higher rents often lead to relocation, and what we researchers call displacement or renoviction, in cases where rent increases have occurred in connection with standard-raising renovations. And we will see more renovictions in the future if the venture capitalists, as the UN warned the Swedish government recently, are allowed to play freely in the housing market.
