The government has touted the Renters Reform Bill as a fix for tenants facing unfair eviction. But there’s a problem...

Nice to see that someone is considering doing something about the insane rents locally.
It's a small but smart step to start a registry of the rental amounts. The only reason landlords don't want that info public is so they can screw over people coming to rent and then use those people they screwed over as justification to raise the rent on the other working people and retired people who live on their property.
Do you #rent in #Ontario? Consider helping #ACORN tenants' union by filling out their rental map. From them: "A rental registry means more transparency for renters and better #housing data to protect affordable housing, inform stronger policies, and enforce existing protections for #tenants facing #renoviction or major rent increases."

It takes 30 seconds to practice #solidarity, which imo is hella rad.

"As a result, some now charge fees for moving in and moving out. Some have fees for '#lease #administration' (whatever that is). One Minnesota #landlord collects a $100 'January fee' on the first month of the year."
People who don't #rent don't really understand just how awful the experience has become since they weeded out all traces of being #human from #PropertyManagers.

The developers who own Little Woods and Youngstown Senior Mobile Home Park are threatening closure unless they are allowed to significantly rase the rents (by over 150% in the Youngstown case). This is a huge and unaffordable increase for many. This Youngstown financials show healthy earnings yearly without this massive increase. The highest allowable rent increase rate is 2%. Residents are fighting back and could use our help. https://secure.givelively.org/donate/petaluma-people-services-center/keep-our-youngstown-senior-mobile-home-park-residents-in-their-home-0409fb46-dc69-46ff-8c7c-640249f9ab87 #Petaluma #SonomaCounty #FairHousing #Rent

by #HamiltonNolan:
"A new research paper by UC Berkeley economists finds that there are indeed (as anyone who has moved from a small town to a humming big city knows) earnings premiums for workers who live in certain areas—but 'local housing costs at least fully offset local pay premiums.' That is to say they found that all or more of the extra money that a worker earns by moving into an economically strong area is clawed back by housing costs. That big raise that your union fought for in the last contract? Send that right on over to the landlord."
