If the government shuts down the economy again its very likely. Thankfully the government is also printing money so real asset prices will only rise. Will be able to make up for lost rent quickly as prices rise

Who will be able to make up for lost rent? I don't think it will be tenants.

The landlords. As long as the government keeps devaluing the dollar, landlords should be safe and the housing supply shouldn't shrink too much. If rates rise, we may end up with a lot of empty buildings

Landlords will have increased equity in their buildings which will offset any rent arrears so will continue to enjoy the government supported risk-free rental income as they always have

Tenants will likely be shafted
