The bill would also give the residential tenancies director. The power to order rent increases to be phased in over a number of years, instead of taking effect immediately. The bill would also expand exemptions to the rents guidelines, so that landlords who converting on residential properties to rental units can raise rents for 10 years before being regulated.
