Whereas before, landlords seemed passive, we now intend to be visible and vocal about laws that allow tenants to hold landlords' property and futures ransom for their own vices. All landlords are neighbors, brothers, sisters, constituents, friends. We are voters who work full time jobs and come home to clean up the messes and fix the hurts of society at our own expense. Other businesses raise prices to adjust to their costs. We cannot and still keep rents affordable.
Landlords are here.
We do exist and we need your help, understanding and support. We need to change some of the laws that not only tie our hands but also jeopardize the future of rental properties. We need to be visible to our legislators, our communities in numbers. We need to support and fight for simple equality in our system. The members of the Greater Bristol Property Owners Association want other landlords to know that they exist, there are others in the same boat.
