Property prices are falling, but rents are rising. Landlords and agents are taking advantage of the loosening pandemic restrictions and low vacancy rates to send rents skyrocketing. It is estimated rents will rise by 10% this year. There is a housing crisis and renters are wearing the cost. Rent increases are on the rise as wages stagnate and landlords transfer the costs of interest hikes onto renters. We cannot afford this. The housing crisis is what happens when basic human rights are manipulated for profit.
RAHU invites you to join us in launching our new campaign to the Victorian State Government leading up to this year’s election. Rent is too high. Meanwhile, landlords have hoarded over a 300,000 EMPTY dwellings in Victoria alone, when there are hundreds of thousands of people who immediately need homes to live in.
Please join us at the Victorian Trades Hall Loading Bay to demand the Victorian State Government take immediate action on the housing crisis. United, we can put real and sustained pressure on the State Government to take real steps toward change.
This event takes place on the stolen and unceded lands of the Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their ancestors, elders and warriors past and present.
