Well, the campaign is underway and as mentioned, Saskatchewan's REALTORS® will be raising awareness of important housing issues during the election. The two major issues we will be raising are: Housing Supply and Tax Competitiveness. Housing supply because in the current market, especially for rentals, we have a serious shortage of available units and greater supply is the best form of rent control. Tax competitiveness was selected because lower property taxes make homes more affordable.
With regard to housing supply here is a link to a recent op-ed article that was published last week in the Regina Leader Post and the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix: Rent Control Op-Ed and here is a link to a summary of my interview on this topic on The Richard Brown Show: Richard Brown interview.
Watch for more on these issues as the campaign progresses.
