Rent And The Cost To Build A House In Michigan
Over 200 rental tenants were gathered in Lansing, Michigan to protest against the rising cost of housing in the state and the rising cost to build a house in Michigan. The rental tenants are asking for the removal of a statewide ban on rent control, especially with the rise of the cost to build a house in Michigan.
Rental tenants are also demanding for basic living conditions such as mold-free housing and notification of crimes within rental communities along with low cost to build a house in Michigan and the rent.
The tenants are part of various groups, including the McKinley Tenants Association and the Rent is Too Damn High Coalition. The increase in the cost to build a house in Michigan also became a factor in the rally. The coalition is also demanding $4 billion in Social Housing Investment and $1 billion for Housing First Solutions to End Homelessness.
Lawmakers are finding ways to bring down the cost to build a house in Michigan as well as the rent. Corporate greed is also being blamed for the high cost to build a house in Michigan and rent.
According to a published article by UpNorthLive, landlords were not the only people to be blamed for this matter but lawmakers as well as they are also not helping the rental tenants as much as they should.
