Strange (theoretical) pricing on cellulose insulation blower rental around here. (not planning on it, just doing research on the costs). Why is renting a machine for four weeks so cheap? (Update: they missed a decimal place for sure, if you change the zip code it's $4900)

@dalfen It's WORSE than because one pays for a yet doesn't get .

Whereas with both sides would clearly have the understanding that the one renting only gets access for a limited term that has been agreed upon.

So in the latest revision of its methods, it now seems that past price data has under-stated rent rises;

So, things have been worse for renters than we thought... and it looks like while may be dropping, its decline may be partly slowed by better data on raising rates.

2023 has not been a good year for the ONS!

companies have always been a disappointment @Ulzana and the worst (for me) was . Government uses them often, and they did my bookings and offered discounts for corporate users, but still had very poor service. Reservation not honoured when we arrived in Montréal for a Thanksgiving rental to go to Ottawa from the train, stranded while they gave car after car away without giving me mine. Short of a lawsuit, compensation was 1 day rental ONLY at that office in Montréal

The in ; its not just about the rent, in Blackpool all (ALL!) 18,000 private properties have some sort of problem!

This problem may be particularly bad in the seaside town for local reasons, but this is a common problem, compounded by fear fo complaining due to very real threat of eviction.

If the wanted a return to Victorian values, then they've certainly achieved it in !

A rental ad has been posted on Facebook Marketplace that says it’s a “one-bedroom” unit, but is really just a small RV parking on a property.

The price of the is listed at $1,000, which could get you an actually studio apartment in Greater Victoria. The total space of the RV is just 250 square feet.

Back when rental prices looked like this, I don't remember Tent Cities.

The 'Bank of Mum & Dad' sounds nice & cosy... but of course, its also a key mechanism for entrenching in the UK.

Those who have property (they can remortgage) or cash in the bank help their children also buy property, while those without the spare cash/capital, see their children stuck in renting hell or living back at home...

If we had a humane & secure sector this wouldn't be such a problem but with a Govt. of this'll never happen

FOOD FIGHT!!

A Nova Scotia small claims adjudicator has likened a dispute over damage to a student rental house as something that could have been included in the 1978 movie Animal House.

https://globalnews.ca/news/9882394/ns-animal-house-student-rental/?utm_source=%40rasta%40mstdn.ca&utm_medium=Mastodon

As a result, eight former tenants of the house in Antigonish, N.S., are now on the hook for nearly $6,000 in damages
