A multi-unit apt in Charlottetown experienced a significant fire today.
The informal PEI forced displacement + eviction tracker I've kept for 2+ years has shown that displacements experienced by tenants that tend to make the news are often due to fires.

➡️ Private apartment vacancy rates in Charlottetown, PEI over the past decade (Oct 2014 - Oct 2024).
Its been a rough go for renters since 2017.
Note the blip increase in 2020? STR operators reverting back to the long-term market because the pandemic decimated tourist season that year.

Today we are announcing a $15.9 million settlement with Blackstone in a rent fraud class action.
This is one of the largest settlements in New York City rent stabilization history and just the tip of the iceberg of the rampant rent fraud problem plaguing New Yorkers.
