Rent Control Change
Will Keep Houses
In Virginia Occupied
Landlords May Fix Price
Subject to Boord Action;
Refunds Provided For

An amendment to Office of Price
Administration rent control rulings
to avoid properties being kept of
the market pending action by area
rent boards was announced Satur-
day by I. Chance Buchanan, director
of the Arlington Alexandria Fairfax
board.
Under the new plan, Mr.. Buchan-
an announced, rents may be raised
when improvements have been made
after such an increase has been
noted in a petition filed with and
approved by the board. Final ap-
proval of the board after inspection
will determine if the increase is
justified, and in the event that it is
not approved the landlord will be
required to refund any excess that
has been paid.
Tentative Rental Allowed.
Another amendment to the regu-
lations applies to properties rented
for the first time. Originally land.
lords offering properties for the frs,
time after July l were required tc
wait until the rent board had fixec
the rent In response to q petition.
The present plan with regard te
houses built without priority ratine
or renovated to change the number
OF housing units allows the Landlord
to fix the rent subject to adjustment
by the board. Such properties must
be listed not later than 80 days after
renting
Many Refunds Predicted.
Mr.. Buchanan said that houses
previously rented unfurnished and
later leased as furnished must BIZ
rented at the original price until
the landlord has petitioned the
board to adjust the rent and the
new price for a furnished rental ha;
been set.
Although many cases of refund.
to tenants because of disapproyal OF
the board of rents will occur, Mr.
Buchanan feels that this is prefer.
able to allowing houses to remain
vacant until the board had time tc
take final action.
