Tenant Union: 9M old rent units, many can't afford 250 pounds
The article discusses the situation of tenants in units under the old rental law. The Renters' Union estimates that there are approximately 9 million rented housing units, according to assessments, with over 1.3 million units closed. It points out that the decisions made by governors regarding the classification of residential areas and steps to increase rents—described as inconsistent and unfair—have impacted many families' ability to pay the minimum rent of 250 Egyptian pounds. The union affirms that many tenants are unable to bear the designated increases, and that legal appeals against government decisions will be heard in October. Despite the financial burdens, tenants are continuing to pay the increases. The union calls for the discussion of laws that align with constitutional provisions and aim to ease the burdens on tenants, amid concerns about the negative impact on millions of families depending on the old rental system in areas such as Imbaba, Shubra, and Heliopolis.
