With soaring rental prices, understaffed Landlord Tenant Boards, and the increasing tensions between landlords and tenants, David pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on.
David discusses the systemic problems that lead to delays in evictions, illegal practices by both landlords and tenants, and the frustrations both parties face when trying to navigate the rental process in such a competitive market. He also examines the misconceptions around the role of real estate agents in rentals and why their involvement is more crucial than ever in today’s climate.
