San Diego Tenants Union

Unite and Fight the Housing Goliath

The growing ambition of the rich and the millionaires becomes more remarkable each day, especially when talking about the powerful class of property owners and landlords. The business of buying and selling property and renting has become extremely lucrative and profitable.
It is frightening to see how far the property owners have gone, increasing the rental and selling prices to levels that are practically impossible for working class people to afford. But the most terrifying thing is to know that they are driven by more wealth accumulation regardless of this social injustice, and as a result hundreds of people are being pushed into the streets. The situation has become devastating for families that cannot sustain the high cost of housing and are facing displacement.

Únete y Lucha Contra el Goliat de la Vivienda

Cada día se vuelve más notable la ambición de los ricos y millonarios, especialmente hablando de los poderosos dueños de vivienda para rentar o vender. Este lucrativo negocio de comprar y vender propiedades, y rentar vivienda se ha convertido hoy en día en una inversión demasiado rentable.
Asusta ver hasta donde han llegado los dueños de la propiedad de alquiler y de venta, aumentando los precios de renta y de adquisición, casi imposibles de pagar por un obrero. Pero lo más terrorífico es saber que nada los detiene, y que como consecuencia a esta injusticia social, en las calles van en aumento los cientos de personas sin hogar. Familias que no pueden sostener el alto costo de una vivienda, y esto es realmente terrible.

#TenantStories: Guadalupe’s Testimonio

Guadalupe’s eyes had been on her cup of coffee for a while, but her mind wandered elsewhere, away from the rising aromatic steam. Like every day, her main concern was finding a permanent job, one where you don’t feel adrift and always wonder how you’re going to pay the rent. That constant anguish was overwhelming and exhausting, and sometimes that same anxiety led her to depression, but Guadalupe knew that she could not give up or lock herself in her house to suffer her misery, her children needed food and a roof.
