Also in theory, maybe that 1500 he is paying would have been 1200 but the landlord had to charge 1500 to make up money they are not making from the one only paying 600 while they still have a building to maintain and pay taxes on it.
As an aside, does rent control exist anywhere in the US outside of NY and California? I am not sure if I remember Boston having it from my time there.
