Proposed changes to legislation around residential rentals will mean more protection for both renters and landlords, according to the provincial government.
On Tuesday, the province announced amendments to the Residential Tenancy Act and the Manufactured Home Park Tenancy Act intended to protect people from bad-faith evictions, lengthy rental disputes and rent increases when a child is added to a household.
Premier David Eby said Tuesday that the proposed changes attempt to "close loopholes" that both renters and tenants have used during tenancies.
"While most landlords and tenants play by the rules and have respectful relationships, too many people in B.C. are still facing unfair rent hikes and evictions under false pretenses," Eby said.
"At the same time, many people who have chosen to rent [out] part of their home are struggling to end problematic tenancies."
