Still waiting to hear how having a higher credit score will make rentals more affordable or eliminate stagnant wages.

Because the vacancy rate is less than 0.5% where I live and so if you arent among the first dozen people to message about the $3k/ mth shithole, youve already lost it. e: also theres no rent control. e2: also every landlord does fixed-term so they can increase whatever they want with no legal recourse.

The only stories I've heard of negotiating rent past like 1987 it's been people bidding over each other by offering to pay more than was asked lol

This isn't for you, this is for people who have $300,000 saved up for a 20% downpayment on a 2 bedroom condo where paying 6% on a 1.2 million dollar mortgage is too expensive, but 5.5% is very affordable!

COPE 27 posted:Can't they already? Non-payment may only affect a tenants credit score if there is judgement order by the Landlord and Tenant Board or the Small Claims Court and the order is registered with the Small Claims Court for collection. Guess what will happen if you DONT apply voluntarily to report payment of rent under this new law? this is a trap. this is for landlords with some glitter on it to fool people.

the big part of the lack of housing availability is' of course, decades of negligence and mismanagement of real estate to the favor of real estate moguls, but a large part of our skyrocketing cost of living initially came from the availability of credit for mortgages those are of course connected, but the Harper Conservatives pulled a similar trick and it basically screwed everyone immediately instead of the slow crawl towards destitution we were heading towards

RBC posted:none of that poo poo matters. its all unenforcable in practice and landlords will continue to act like discriminatory pieces of poo poo. yeah i'm pretty sure you can't actually ban pets in ontario at least. people put all sorts of stupid poo poo in their leases that's technically unenforceable but your relationship with your landlord exists without any real oversight and you're entirely at their mercy unless they do truly illegal stuff like turn off your heat/water or shoot you (and in the latter case it's posthumously) just look at rental ads in the GTA and you can spot the dozens of illegal basement apartments, illegal sharing of utilities, specific demands for tenants of a specific gender/religion, specific demands for quiet hours during the day, and so on. god help you if you or your partner is pregnant or you have children.

I dont expect this will be the last Trudeau housing policy hell float before the election but I fully expect that every single one will be idiotic bullshit that will drive up housing prices in general and help a grand total of 100 people who already had down payments saved up.

It's frustrating because, like with health and education which are also falling apart, a lot of the policy levers for housing are at the mercy of the lovely conservative premiers that immiserate us all. If Trudeau could do anything it would be actually reinstitute federal house building but that requires a tax base, institutional will, and frankly an infrastructure knowledge that we've farmed out to the lovely private sector (look at transit projects). He could say gently caress the division of powers but he's lost badly in the courts recently on environment regs so he's gunshy and meanwhile Premiers who have been in power for a decade are robbing futures. And I don't mean to excuse him, he should absolutely do more that his beliefs won't let him do, but god the Premiers are just boobs ripping apart lives. The fact that we're talking about a federal disability program because Premiers are killing people by not improving theirs is so frustrating.

Looking forward to the new Housing Affordability Savings Plan, which will allows TFSA overcontributions to be moved into a maxed out FHSA without requiring taxpayers to pay a penalty for overcontributing.
