On Thursday the Vienna Greens publicised the case of a tenement building in Paulusgasse in the third district. In their view it is a so-called speculation house. According to the party, there has been no gas, heating or hot water since last year, and the high-voltage power supply was switched off.
What this means for you
Before signing a lease, tenants should check whether gas, heating, hot water and power supply in the building are secured. Ongoing construction work and vacancy levels should also be clarified.
