Greetings folks,
As per the question, how does one get involved with a lobby group? Reason for the question is because like most, I'm tired of this property crisis and I really feel we should do what Canada did and cut off foreign purchasing to our real estate industry as this will bring down the pricing of housing and potentially even your rent.
Thanks
You can try getting involved in your state's tenants union. They're usually the ones pushing for more controls on foreign/corportate ownership and short stay rent.
I looked up my local one looks like they only have 200-300 members based on their finances so you could make a big difference. Might consider it.
