In January, residents of 1,500 homes managed by Elogie-Siemp, in the Croix-Blanche district, received rent receipts of 2.8 million euros. The amount is astronomical and tenants will not be able to escape it.

Seeing this record amount, they contacted the Consumer Housing and Living Environment Association (CLCV) to make their voices heard. In addition to the usual 520 euros in rent and 201 euros in provision for charges, the lessor is demanding 4,333 euros from him under regulations for the previous two years.
