However, the most dangerous thing is that in the time depth of such measures of forced commitment of the amount of the leases, the forced extension of the duration of the leases is fatally added. The combination of these two measures constitutes the inexorable “Rental Estate”, which was valid for decades in our country due to the Asia Minor Disaster and the Second World War, which literally destroyed and ruined the building potential of our country.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

the adjustment of rents for commercial and professional leases, especially in view of the particular global conditions, which have a negative effect on the economy.\u00a0The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for a rapid change in the energy production model and the geopolitical crisis caused in Ukraine caused a global increase in international trade prices, which in turn led to high inflation and a decrease in purchasing power of consumers. In this context, the rents of the commercial and professional leases are adjusted, weighting the current inflation.<\/p>\n

    POMIDA: Unilateral and socially unfair regulation…<\/strong><\/p>\n

    POMIDA considers the extension of the 3% ceiling on commercial leases for 2023 to be “unilateral and socially unfair”, in a letter to the Prime Minister and the competent Minister of Development, Adonis Georgiadis. POMIDA protested because the measure was announced without any previous discussion with the owners, and without any counterweight in their favor, when on the side of the professionals favored by this regulation, a lot of wealthy providers have been received and are being received measures to strengthen them.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

    POMIDA believes that instead of prolonging this unfair and dangerous measure, the best direct and effective intervention that the government can and should do of the tenants, it is finally<\/strong> the drastic rationalization of the tax burden on small and medium owners of rented commercial properties and not the continuous taking of unilateral measures against them!<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The full text of the letter is as follows:<\/p>\n

    To the Prime Minister Mr. Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/strong><\/p>\n

    To the Minister of Development Mr. Adonis Georgiadis<\/strong><\/p>\n

    In Athens, 6.1 2. 2022<\/p>\n

    ISSUE: Unilateral and socially unjust extension of the 3% ceiling on commercial leases!<\/strong>
    Dear Mr. President, Mr. Minister<\/p>\n

    As you know, with article 121 of Law 4926\/2022, a maximum rate of increase (3%) of rents was imposed as a temporary measure on real estate leases subject to in the category of commercial leases<\/strong> for the year 2022. It should be noted that this binding measure was imposed exclusively at the expense of small and medium-sized owners<\/strong> of shops and offices, while all large business and investment property.<\/p>\n

    Without any prior discussion with the owners, we were surprised to hear today the announcement that the unilateral and socially unfair this arrangement will be extended for the next year 2023!<\/p>\n

    This measure, without any counterweight in favor of its victims, on a personal basis brings a significant number of landlords to despair which of the rents they collect are obliged to cover the heavy income tax<\/strong>, of which you have not changed in the slightest the “confiscating” literally scale of rents, which reaches up to 45% without tax,\u00a0 the ENFIA<\/strong> which you dramatically increased for those with assets over 400,000 euros, the loan obligations<\/strong> of those who are struggling to be consistent with them, even though interest rates have increased significantly recently and theexpensive upcoming mandatory energy upgrade of their buildings<\/strong>, on penalty of deflating their value.\u00a0 On the contrary, on the side of the professionals favored by this regulation, a lot of rich measures have been taken and are being taken to strengthen them. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Our view, based on our experience over the last 40+ years, is that this marketregulates itself much more quickly and efficiently through consultation of the interested parties,<\/strong>rather than any kind of government interventions, which, although temporary, inevitably carry within them the seed of the long-term and destructive tenement practices of the past,<\/strong> which literally destroyed its building potential of our country…<\/p>\n

    That is why we believe, Mr. President, Mr. Minister, that instead of prolonging this unjust and dangerous measure, the best immediate and effective intervention that you can and should do in favor of tenants, is finally<\/strong> the drastic rationalization of the tax burden on small and medium owners of rented commercial properties and not the continuous taking of unilateral measures against them!<\/strong><\/strong> p><\/p>\n

    At your disposal for any clarification and cooperation<\/p>\n

    The President The Secretary General<\/p>\n
