BC Landlord Question: How Much Can I Raise the Rent in 2015?
BC landlords know the importance of renting to good tenants.
And we know the important of collecting rent on time. There was a question on the BC Landlords forum about raising the rent. The landlord said she wanted to raise the rent on her tenants because her cost of doing business had increased this year. Everything from plumbers, to electricians to taxes keep going up.
We also know our business costs are rising every year and we need to keep the rent up to at least try to cover these increasing costs.
This is why we are interested in what the government rent guideline is because the province of British Columbia has what is called ‘rent control’.
