Condo Owners Beware When Renting Suites, Fraudster Working In Vancouver.
January 10th, 2009Well Some things just make me sick. It seems that there is a fraud artist working in Vancouver who openly admits what he is doing but yet the RTB (Residential Tenancy Board) and the Vancouver Police don’t seem to care.
As a landlord myself, and one who is familiar with the laws, I must say it has always been quite frustrating how the RTB is of little help and more often than not a hindrance for owners. The assumption seems to be that the tenant is always in the right and the owners are the out to take advantage of the tenant. The RTB has been set up and organized under these assumptions which has now lead to tenants being able to use the system against the landlords/owners. It seems that there are more and more roadblocks put up against those that actually have the means to provide housing, which is desperately needed, when will the government wake up. or maybe they are but just don’t care.
As well, the fact that the police say it is difficult to prove these types of cases makes no sense in t his case, the person involved openly admits what he is doing, I guess that is not proof enough.
