So instead of having people spend 60% of their income on housing we will have some slightly annoyed people who aren't in the neighborhood they want to be in, spending <20% of their income on housing. Sounds like an improvement to me.

No, all you're doing is shifting power from the big bad mean rich landlord into the hands of the government agency or agent in charge. How do you not understand that? No matter what there's going to be an asshole with too much power/wealth.
