Rent control and its applicability to Saskatchewan

27 Jul 2011

Rent control can be broadly defined as governmental regulations that limit landlords' ability to freely set and increase rents on residential properties. These controls often coincide with a host of other regulations concerning the landlords' responsibilities and the tenants' rights in a rental arrangement. While this paper does not aim to be all-inclusive, it intends to do an analysis of the same rent control problem using different approaches to see if we can arrive at the same conclusion. This paper will address both rent ceilings and second-generation rent control unless otherwise specified.
