  • Winter is Coming, for some Winter is here already. It's very simple, if you have a court date, go to court. Have your say in court, not with me at the time of eviction.

    My family was evicted when I was a kid and I was so embarrassed. We had nowhere to go and our stuff was on the street. We were on section 8, food stamps and my mom received social security but there wasn’t much money and we were always living hand to mouth. We were broke as hell and I remember living without water, lights, heat and a phone. I remember the neighbors allowing us to cook at their house so we could use their stove because we didn’t have electricity. We sometimes lived on sandwiches and anything that we could keep cool in an ice chest. I also remember catching rain in buckets because the landlord wouldn’t fix anything. My family went through it when I was a kid and one thing that stuck with me was when my mom told me to stay in school and to get an education. Both parents died when I was in high school and I was able to stay in section 8 housing until I could find a job. I graduated college and now make 6 figures but I never forget where I came from and don’t take anything for granted.

    Us almost getting evicted was the beginning of the end of my marriage. I was working a job, going to school and driving Uber on the side to keep a roof over our heads while my ex was nonchalant about paying our rent and bills on time. He was blocking my blessings. Once he left, things significantly improved. Now I’m a homeowner.

    For any tenant that’s watching this. Yes I am a landlord and I want to let you know this. You have rights as a tenant too. If for any reason you are paying your landlord and the landlord is letting the house go and there are issues that’s effecting your living. Don’t just use that as a reason to stop paying rent. File something in court, so you can have your rent held in court until the issues are fix. If you choose to not do it the right way you can possibly get in this situation.

      ⁠@@Erock1985xproblem is you can clearly see in the video and MANY videos on this channel that some of these properties are absolutely not being managed and had it been reported the courts could have decided in the tenants favor because the landlord does have rules they have to follow.
      I know it’s hard to believe but some landlords go out of their way to rent to high risk tenants because they know they can pocket the rent money and won’t be held accountable for the properties upkeep like they’re supposed to so the advice being given is very good. People think just because they’re poor they have to put up with whatever, not the case. Landlords have responsibilities just like the tenants do but in a lot of cases slumlords use low income tenants as a way to get around the law because they know the tenants have nowhere else to go and aren’t going to jeopardize their situation by speaking up like a tenant with decent credit would.

    I was diagnosed with cancer during COVID. I couldn’t work for 7 months as I was going through my chemotherapy and radiation treatments. My parents always taught me to save for a rainy day. Because of my parent’s guidance I was able to continue paying all my bills from my savings. I wasn’t even sure if I would survive but that’s not the bank’s or anyone’s fault - my debtees never even knew I was sick. If I could pay my bills while battling cancer/chemo these and many other strong healthy people have no excuse not to work.

No surprises. Most tenants behave differently off camera. Priority misplaced most times; spends money on car, excess food, gadgets, furniture, electronics etc Calling code enforcement to avoid paying rent etc. I have good tenants that I'm always willing to work with even if they're unable to pay rent for months.

      As a landlord of 16 years, I stopped "working" with tenants when I realized THEIR definition of working with me was seeing how long they can pay as little as possible as infrequently as possible. It took me the first 2-3 years of letting properties to realize that. Afterward, I had a protocol for late rent. A late fee was assessed, and five days later, a "pay rent or quit" letter was sent out. Ten days after that, I mailed my eviction forms to the court, and it was out of my hands at that point.

The lucky part of it was, the court officer noticed my relative. They knew one another from 55 years ago as kids. Dude was real cool with the judge. Took the paperwork up to him. Short story? Had the money, took it down to the Rental Office...and dodged a bullet. I own and pay mortgage now in the country... and from that day on almost 10 years ago, I do MY BEST to never to be in that situation again. That's a Fd up feeling. Dang..

    This gives a new meaning to “being put out in the cold” because that woman was evicted during the winter. What made me angry was that she didn’t think about the kids, and chose to not pay rent because no repairs were done. There were probably no complaints from her about the house until she fell behind in rent to have a reason not to pay. If she worked at a job for weeks, and didn’t receive a paycheck, then she would be the first person ready to fight. Well, landlords want to be paid too…think about that.

    This is why it's so important for people to really read the lease when renting.

It make sense, because no one should have to remind you to pay your rent. My heart goes out to anyone who goes through this, especially if they have children.

    My parents lived rent free in a house for 7 years. No one knocked on the door but the house flooded and my parents expected them to rebuild for them, of course they didn’t and tore house down but I witnessed how ungrateful my mother was when she started ripping off cabinet doors and kicking holes in bedroom doors. I was so embarrassed I apologized to the kind people who graciously let them stay that long and I had to leave as I’d seen this my whole life 😞

      It is possible they have no where to go and cannot afford to move. I live in NYC where I pay $1330 a month for rent in a mice infested building. I had to harass the management for them to close up the holes in my apartment. I hardly cook in the kitchen even after the issue was supposedly fixed because Im scared of seeing another mice--if they are still in here. I would love to leave this place. Most of my neighbors sit at home all day and several of them are convicted felons. But it will cost me upward of $6,000 to move to another place, meanwhile I don't know what problem I could potentially be walking into after the fact. And it's not even that I don't have the money because I do. I just see no point in wasting all that money when at the end of the day I'll just be renting another apartment.

    "Somethin told me not to go to work!" Girl, sounds like that inner voice is what got you into this situation to begin with.

    This is so embarrassing, but these people know if you don’t pay rent this day will come.

    I live in Florida and it is legal to not pay rent if the landlord does not have the property up to code, however, they do tell you that the landlord will find out that you've complained and may retaliate and evict you. You also have to put the rent money in an escrow account at the court house during that time that you are waiting to get repairs done. It's a messed up situation, I was in a situation like this. I mean the place was run down. But I had to make a decision, either live outside, or save as much as I can to get a better place and just suck it up for the time being. I mean I had a SLUMLORD! Good Gawd! Mold everywhere, brown water coming out of the faucets, etc. Someone you have to make difficult decisions to have somewhere to live, especially if you have children. I get it that everyone doesn't have good credit or great income to move somewhere nice, but work on it is all that I can say. Because once you get that eviction, now it's really going to be hard to move somewhere, no one wants a tenant who's been evicted. If I get a notice and know they are trying to evict me, I'd rather move out and sleep in my car before I get an eviction on my record. I feel bad for these ppl, because I do know that it is possible to be served and you not know it. Here in Florida, or at least where I live, who ever answers that door and accepts that paper, you are considered served! So if they don't give it to you, throw it away or whatever, oh well. I told my grandma to stop accepting anything that comes to her house for me. Because she gives me my mail maybe once a month and sometimes accidentally throws it away. And she doesn't know what she's accepting. And I don't even live there. But once it's in her hands or anyone that accepts it, "I'VE BEEN SERVED"! Smh!

      Most people are only one horrible injury away from dire financial straits. Not excusing this at all but I can't imagine having to evict people and doing it with such compassion.

      While I understand what you mean, we are not all one step away. There are a few steps before this happens.
