The landlord had told them he wanted to raise the rent to $3,500 and when they complained he decided to raise it to $9,500.
“We know that our building is not rent controlled and this was something we were always worried about happening and there is no way we can afford $9,500 per month," Yumna Farooq said.
Is there anything holding them back from buying their own property and not having to pay rent?
Yeah they are not rich you asshole.
Didn’t know you had to be rich to buy property, my bad
You do in Toronto. Average home is over a million dollars.
Well they can live somewhere else right? You have to pay for convenience, can’t have your cake and eat it too.
