I don't support the limitations on no-cause evictions this bill has, but I like the rent increase cap.

About time renters had some control over landlords! Landlords have always had the upper hand

Not now that the rent is out of reach for many. 2 yrs ago a single person making $10.50 an hour could find a place for $600 a mo. Now making $12.50 hard to find a place affordable even at $900 a mo.

The rent would NOT LOWER ENOUGH for those who need cost affected living. $1200 - $1500 a month rent is still way high for seniors and low income rentals. It should be $700 - $900 MAX. AND not be raise

Watch all of the landlords put their rentals up for sale because tenants and squatters have more rights than the property owner

this may decrease the amount of affordable housing by causing owners withdraw from the rental market. It is only a small amount of owners that increase rents drastically.

This will cause less affordable housing to be available and likely encourage many landlords to stop renting.

Deposits will go up dramatically and fewer properties will be available. Enjoy!
