TENANCY ACT _-_-_

Visit the home page and read some of the drafts..
http://www.pssg.gov.bc.ca/rto/index.htm

It is an interesting read ( you need the ADOBE Acrobat reader )
and renter should know her/his rights..

It's related to your costs... probably amortized costs of capital itmes
plus cola wouldn't raise too much notice.

2 - 4 % is the LEGAL amount..........
All increases MUST be approved in advance by the RT office.
3 monthes notice MUST be given..

I consider myself fairly INFORMED on tenancy issues and
will be attending some Tenant Arbitrations in the next few monthes
on the SIDE of the renter or tenant.

Questions? Send me e-mail:

Reason I ask is my girlfriends rent went up from 900 to 950, but she does
have common gas fireplace and hot water and the gas prices went up quite a
bit.
