My rent cannot go up by more than the Consumer Price Index, and I cannot be evicted without just cause, except in very limited circumstances (owner move in, condo conversion, etc.). How much housing security have I given up? What I’m really giving up in this situation is the right to make significant improvements to my unit, and such. In exchange, I don’t have to pay for any repairs due to wear and tear. I don’t think it’s a terrible deal, but I would like to own a home, simply so I can have a living space that I alone fully control.
