Making rent prices for houses and apartments so outrageous. The shortage of places to rent is causing rent to be higher. There seem to be no answers in sight. So the question is: are we heading where there will only be apartments available?
It is a conversation we need to be talking about with our family, relatives, friends, and coworkers. People are afraid to discuss this topic.
We start by talking to our local leaders, voicing our concerns, and asking questions.
