In our first show of 2024, we hear from Krystal Valencia, Founder & Managing Director of Rental Rescue.
Many affordable housing units are in jeopardy due to challenges such as aging infrastructure, financial constraints, and the rising costs of necessary renovations.
Rental Rescue is a nonprofit that works with the public and the private sector to maintain and even increase the number of affordable rental housing units.
Krystal Valencia is a housing activist working predominantly in the Hamilton and Oakville areas. One of her goals is to preserve existing affordable housing units by safeguarding them against deterioration - which often leads to renovictions and rental increases.
