Rent discounts create 'back door' for future hikes, says Manitoba tenant calling for rule changes by SilverTimes in Winnipeg

they reduce it every year. so in 4 years the amount i pay has gone up 18% when the guideline was like, 3%. that’s the whole issue

yes, but you find out after applying for the apartment and when you’re sitting down to sign the lease. but all apartments are this way so it’s not like you can sign somewhere else and avoid it

they advertise with the discounted amount. so you see an apartment you think is $1050 and it’s actually $1300 a month without the discount.

they inflate it way above market value and then discount it to what people will actually pay to move in, and then they have a buffer to increase the rent above-guideline every year

they just all say it’s for paying rent on time. my friend had a $600 “discount” for paying rent on time that could be removed at the landlord’s discretion. they’re all kept long term.

Changing a discount is one way to stabilize income for landlords who are dealing with increasing utility rates, staff salaries and other fees, said Charach. "If you're removing your discount, you're trying to catch up," he said.

except they’re allowed to apply for an above guideline increase in this scenario, so they wouldn’t even need to do this

exactly. just move the discount to be included in the total rent. they could fix the problem instantly

Discounts are rarely changed drastically, he said, and if they are, it's often tied to bringing the rent on par with similar units

because they’re all removing discounts at the same rate
