Loyers : Un encadrement au rabais
Le Sénat a voté la prolongation pour deux ans de l’encadrement des loyers dans les communes où il s’applique déjà, et où il est d’ailleurs loin d’être toujours respecté. Mais il refuse de permettre à de nouvelles villes de l’adopter et de limiter les compléments de loyer qui permettent aux propriétaires de contourner les plafonds. Le délai pour contester un loyer dépassant le plafond sera même réduit de trois ans à un an. Les loyers sont mal encadrés, mais les intérêts des propriétaires sont bien défendus !
