James Bay tenants say landlord has found rent-increase loophole
In B.C., parking and storage fees aren’t legally considered rent. But, the apartment building’s management company says these fee increases aren’t a roundabout rent hike.
“The fee increase for the parking areas has been in the works long before there was discussion about changes about the rental rate,” said Jaime Tiampo, director of Itziar Management.
“If you take a look, we haven’t changed [parking] rates on those buildings for 15 to 20 years.”
Many of the residents here live on fixed incomes, and they say the changes are unaffordable.
“It means less food! Everything that happens means less food, less prescriptions!” said Jeannie Good.
But the landlord says, as it is, he can’t afford the cost of doing business.
