We all know that most of the $50 Billion dollars that was supposed to be for Landlords and Renters, has been pocketed already.
Like all the funds for the past 100 + years.
What are you going to do about it?
@@manictiger I'm not doing going to do anything.
The government. Keep the money put in his bank account
It was given to Pakistan for gender studies
this is such a crappy situation. people can’t pay rent, and their landlords need money too. could she try to sell the property and kick them out in the process? if she did sell it, would they still be allowed to live there?
The government sure didn’t have a problem giving out money to corporations but sure did hesitate to give us the little money they did.
They have no problem taking your money either
That’s bc this government has been bought by corporate interests. The good news is, unlike corporations’ executive boards, elected official can be voted out by ordinary people.
I bet it's the middleman (city/state) paperwork differs in each region adding restrictions and proof of covid related stuff instead of giving it out with basic paperwork to decentivize people from getting the funding and then local gov't can keep the rest.
That's what you get for falling for bs like lick yourself up by your bootstraps... Political group who use this are the most corrupt groups in America.
because that's their actual bosses
I still pay my rent and if I have a hard time with not having enough to pay him all of it I pay him as much as I possibly can & he understands . He has payments of his own and if he can’t pay them then I won’t have a home so we work together and I think that’s what everyone should do but some people are just taking advantage of the situation and not paying anything at all and that’s not right .
kinda of like how corporations take advantage of the people by paying government officials and then billion dollar companies don't even pay taxes, but your mad at people who will never see a billion not paying? our priorities in this country are askew.
@@hijinx2777 how about get a job. Maybe you can save up an buy your own house if you don’t like paying rent.
Exactly! Some people were just waiting for a chance to NOT pay at all
@@DrWashingtonMA You look like you got them cakes though. 🌹😉
Ur a good person ☺
I rent a townhouse here in Az....my landlord is the owner of the property and he's a great guy who sat down with me and I told him my hours got cut so instead of paying 1050 a month hes allowing me to Py 850 per month. When I got the child tax credit of $250 I offered it to him but he declined stating he's glad im making effort to pay every month. Im so thankful for that man. I'm back to 40 hr work weeks and he continues to tell me to only pay $850!!! Blessings come when ur good hearted
Very kind. Id get him a thank you card and a gift card worth 200$ somewhere one of these months. Think that would be a good thank you gift.
It pisses me off how the anti-landlord crowd is so quick to paint all landlords with the same broad stroke, without realizing that not all landlords are the same. My partner is a landlord, and during this whole pandemic, he has a "pay what you can" policy, and works with his tenants. Of course there are many of his tenants who has taken advantage of not being evicted, so they choose not to pay rent at all even though they were not impacted. This is what makes things difficult for him, because he wants those type of people gone, but can't do anything because no evictions. Yet, the anti-landlord crowd won't hear any of that, all because they don't like paying rent. And let's face it, that's what it all comes down to with those people. They think they should live where they want rent free, and if they can't, then landlords are bad people. They don't seem to grasp that there is more to being a landlord than collecting rent.
Your landlord definitely seems to be a good person for sure, allowing you to pay less given everything.
@@YoYo-xv7he I agree I tried giving him my child tax credit check of $250 but he says my son is a growing boy and buy food for him lol he's a kind old man every time he sees my son he says WHAT ARR U EATING MY GOSH UR GROWING lol 😆 my son is 13 lol my landlord is jus a good hearted man
@@msmee0079 so kind. Glad to hear my friend. Pass those good vibes on :)
You Cavan still get a small thank you gift. Sounds like he’s a nice guy but Eventually he will get tired of being taken advantage of. Buy him a gift card for a pizza and a thank you card. Very simple but it’s your choice then you’ll have to deal with the consequences.
At least this tenant applied for the rent relief funds. It’s the state that’s failing to hand them over to the landlord. I worked in social services and my agency paid our clients past due rent, light bills etc. All money was received within 30 days. This is crazy.
I was a tenant in good standing for five years, I was late on my rent once and that was the month the moratorium was lifted, I applied and was evicted two months later. Seven months after I was evicted, the assistance I applied for called me and told me they were out of funds and wouldn't be helping me. I told them that I had already called and sent several emails saying I didn't need it anymore because I had been evicted months ago. It was all a cruel joke.
And when this was going on my landlord was urging me to apply to these programs because I stopped paying him because of all the problems he would fix and I felt like I couldn't call the city and report it because he worked for the city
There are landlords that are refusing these funds also.
When this moratorium is over, all these small owners will be forced to sell and big private equity firms will buy up the properties and drive prices even further up. The government keeps making things worse and worse.
True...although most people can't see that, thinking that landlords just have an endless supply of money.
That’s been the plan that’s why you see that stupid Zillow commercial a ton rn they’re going to request extreme amounts of information and own entire towns worth of properties. Aka slowly but surely taking that much more free will out of us
The Supreme Court cancelled the eviction ban.
@@davidnavarro4821 Try to keep up. The White House has encouraged states to reimpose their own statewide moratoriums. 7 states have already done that. The SCOTUS ruling spoke only to the fact that the CDC lacked the authority to impose moratoriums.
Yes I hope you don't think this is just a coincidence
Some tenants have money to pay rent but rather live for free. Totally taking advantage of the system.
I guess you haven't noticed that there's a pandemic going on.
The rescue plan should pay property owners.
I know right 🤢 They are hiring all over 🤢 She can get a job and PAY THE RENT 🤢
@@winning3329 did you read his comment? He said some tenants HAVE the money to pay rent but won't.
@@winning3329 Yeah and places can't get employees to work. Lots of jobs available.
'I can't force you to move out, so I'm moving in with you!'
Lol law doesn't allow that...
@@stevenroshni1228 Isn't it obvious... there is no law
😂
I know some ppl really can’t pay but others r just juicing it 😩
When the CDC hands out juiceboxes people juice it. 🧃 That’s how the system was designed, they aren’t even using loopholes, they’re just drinking the juice their given.
Everyone can pay something. Everyone has received unemployment, income taxes, food stamps and multiple stimulus checks. There are hiring signs everywhere. It’s no excuse not to pay people are just milking this situation cause they can.
The vast majority of people are juicing it... plenty of open jobs at fast food joints... just because someone feels entitled and are above those jobs, doesn't mean they should scam the govt and landlords. We really need to evict all of these bums and add them to the homeless population.
@@billr5842 The reason these people can’t get evicted is because they aren’t juicing it. It’s hard to believe such social programs exist but they do. Don’t blame the people who use these programs for their intended purpose; It’s the incompetence of our political leaders more than anything.
@@RedShiftedDollar no they are juicing it.. everyone I know is scamming it. Theres plenty of fast food job openings. If you need to work multiple jobs to pay your rent then so be it. A landlord shouldnt be forced to pay because someone is lazy.
Goes to show we really don’t “own” anything.
The government charges you every year as if you are "selling" your property. On the bright side, any gains you get from the selling of that primary residence is tax free.
@@jessicajones6027 Tax is necessary because without it, any public functions of society won't be available to use.
@@michaellim4165 uh....capital gains are tax free?? In what universe???
@@SL-nv6zv Gains on sale of primary residence is not taxed, in this universe. Look it up.
@@michaellim4165 Agreed, without ta(xes)they couldn’t possibly siphon billions of dollars into their accounts as efficiently. It’s a crucial tool for their scam.
I'm a renter and I've paid my rent every month, I was late for 2 mos in the beginning of the pandemic but soon as my unemployment kicked in, especially with that extra $600, I paid what I owed. I went back to work and with stimulus money I've been okay. It seems like some, not all, but some are taking advantage of the eviction moratorium.
You did the right thing. Other people are taking advantage and its not right
Very true same I have done my best to AT LEAST pay rent if nothing else
I’ve done the same,still living comfortably.I don’t understand why some tenants are in this situation
I feel like the majority are taking advantage which I foresaw. Especially this woman we're dealing with. She's a squatter.
You think?
How can you live with yourself to live in someone else’s home knowing they are living in their car because of YOU? Ugh!
How can you live with yourself believing that during special circumstances such as this that anybody would have more rights to shelter than another person.
Now if this pandemic didn't happen and this situation was happening, than something is obviously wrong with our legal system.
That lady thought she would have an easy life by not working and collecting rent.
If you think about it, she is actually part of the problem as to why housing isn't affordable.
People like her buy homes as an invest, robbing other people's opportunity to actually buy a house to live in and not for investment.
It's not because of them. It's because of the job they have
Bee, thank God for rent otherwise people who can't afford would be living in cars.
@@thatdapperman nobody robs you of opportunities loser. Save up your money and you will be able to do the same. Your logic is why your a bum
@@thatdapperman this is 1 of the more ignorant posts I have ever read.This woman did nothing wrong....she made an investment with money she earned . What gives her the right??? How about the fact it is hers. Are you seriously going to try to make the case that she is at fault??
You notice the tenant is working she talked about child care costs that she is paying...and she says they are down to one income...so if there is another adult in the house why is the child going to daycare...but it's the landlord she's not paying because with the COVID rules that's the one she can get by without paying...
I didn't pick up on that. Good point. And rent relief chooses not to pay. Landlords are the only victims.
It MOST foreign countries , the landlord will call out the Cartels, Yukuza, Triad, Russian mobs to collect the rent. And I totally agree with the need to call gangsters to collect the rent!!
Love when people like you make assumptions based on a 2 minute video.
She obviously lying.
Great point! You can tell that she is lying too because she rolled off a litany of problems looking at the reporter to see if one sticks.
This is so unfair. The renter refuses to leave a house she can’t pay the rent for and the owner of the home is homeless?!?! WTF?!?
To be fair, the owner of the home is the bank...or else she could only be made homeless by not paying her property taxes/water/sewer taxes after a year or two. Having a mortgage simply relegates one to be a custodian for the home on behalf of the bank or more like a serf and vassal relationship to a lord (of the manor). All property rights, globally, stem from Old English (500AD - 1500AD, give or take a century) property laws. This goes to abolishing such onerous, word-smith mortgage language. 🤔👑
@@AllFather-TheStoicGod but it’s her name on the mortgage under contract so she’s the one going to lose the properties and suffer financial damages without getting paying tenants. The govt. in its asserted benevolence has once again usurped existing law and forced damages onto otherwise financially healthy owners of those mortgages. I’m looking forward to the lawsuits from the landlords in such distressed situations.
This is all Trump's fault.
@@agentorange20 I'm unsure of where the "...but..." you placed alludes to...? All of that is my entire point, not in opposition to it. The "but" wasn't required if you agree. 🤔
That is what is happening. The government mandates are ensuring that small business people who rent out property are being crushed, while big businesses, wealthy politicians, and also China, are buying up real estate like its going out of style.
I'm glad someone finally focused on the landlords instead of putting all the attention on people who have been living rent free for all this time.
maybe she shouldve rented herself
@@roodaley So let's turn the tables here... Imagine that was you.. owning the property that you rent out to tenants...
Only now your tenants are not paying their rent... and you can't kick them out.. what do you do?
If everyone rented... Who owns the properties?
....since you have all of the answers.
@@thedoubleboiler6971 rentals are investments, not a profession or career choice. This is exactly like betting all your money on the stock market and then going bust. No pity from me.
@@thedoubleboiler6971 owning a property is an investment and it’s a very risky one at that. If you don’t have a strong emergency fund then you shouldn’t be a property owner. If she put all her money in a single stock and the company failed, you wouldn’t blame the CEO of the failed company, you would blame her for not diversifying her investments. Its very sad when someone mismanages their money and gets burned in a failed economy, but this lady should have never been a property owner in the first place if she is so dependent on the rent money.
All these people commenting must be living rent free.
This is outrageous and totally unacceptable. The ones that should be on the street are the ones that won’t work or pay their rent !
The fact those stimulus checks didn't go to landlords to pay for rent... something isn't right.
@@AskMiko You bet. They are trying to ruin a particular class of people. Landlords, most are middle class. When their homes are lost, who’s there to buy them? Blackrock and Vanguard and other wealthy individuals. B & V own (through stocks) EVERY single corporation in this country.
my grandpa had a similar issue. his tenants didn't work, had multiple people living in the house and the cops were always called for noise disturbance or vandalism. and because of the eviction ban they got away with it for quite some time.
@@nope6572 It’s awful. Most of them have no respect for anything including themselves and they hide behind the needs of their many kids.
During that time before covid I refused to pay my rent and it was because the house was full 9f problems that. The landlord refused to fix or made worse had an issue with my front door told him and he drilled it shut making it a hazard 8f the house caught fire and the front door was the only option their was a leak in my dining room from the bathroom and all he did was put a board up where the leak was and don't get me started with the bats and raccoons living on the attic along with the mice problem or the kitchen sink
Why are the states not being held accountable? They need to send out the funds ASAP. Maybe small landlords need to band together for legal action to get funds.
Their pocketing the money. Corruption at the highest level. It’s not a new thing. I’m g
But the good thing is every stim plan money goes to
nations that just laugh at us.
When this is all over we all need to sue the states that this is happening in
The reality is that many tenants are taking advantage of this situation to not pay. If they don't stop the eviction ban soon, we will have a foreclosure rise like the financial crisis in 2008-2009. This could get bad!
I am hoping for a big crash. I have been waiting to buy a house! These people need to get a job or move out! If these people are evicted, it will lower housing prices hopefully.
That's the plan
Yep, and it'll be big corporations buying up all the foreclosed properties, worsening an already horrible housing market.
@@Raja1938 that's already going down private equity firms like Blackrock and Vanguard are already buying property soon pension funds will be buying houses.
Yeah, because we can afford a worsening homeless crisis
There’s not many excuses left for not paying rent. If you’re unemployed and getting unemployment benefits, you should be able to pay. If they claim they can’t pay, then they should have proof of being eligible for government assistance or proof of where the money is going.
@@jessicajones6027 and everywhere is hiring.

@@theewildrose yea! And the grocery store should stop charging for food. O! And the gas station should give gas for free. It's b.s.!

YOU WILL HATE IT EVEN MORE!
Who's paying for "free housing "
if the tenant is as altruistic as she’s trying to appear, then why doesn’t she offer to share the home with her landlord so a child doesn’t have to live in a car? save me the crocodile tears
If the owner is so hard up for a place to live and she owns 3 homes. Why doesnt she sell one and then use the proceeds to buy a small place or even rent an apartment in the meantime? Why should care more about the owner than the tenant?
@@broncomcbane6382 did you not watch the video? She cant sell thrm because all 3 are being used by tenets

No you stupid piece of 💩 this what real freedom looks like! You and everyone else shouldn't be allowed to own property. Real freedom is in public land because 'we the people' include those who can't afford private property.

Yes, but if the tenant is not paying then that tenant is in breach of contract and should leave.
When did "eviction moratorium" become to mean "free rent" if you haven't paid anything your a CROOK!
there should of never been a moratorium.
EDIT: PAY YOUR RENT YOU BUMS
Tell that to the businesses who make billions of dollars and don’t pay any taxes. We complain about he crooks on lower levels but never the ones at Mar-A-Lago or in Aspen on holiday for the fifth time this year.
You’re
Thats the misconception, it means no evictions not free rent. They still owe that back rent and can be sued for it. Once they do get a job, wages can be garnished and tax returns intercepted.
@@GROGU123 Your part of the problem. That does not solve anything. It only creates more issues and rising tensions between landlord and tenants. Other countries do not have these kind of issues. I had a client from Vietnam who said there is no such thing as not paying rent in Vietnam. They will be removed immediately. Why do Americans get special treatment, OH YEA. Entitled people like your self definitely help the cause.

@@bremmschwarz you must not own properties.
And many of us have jobs too. I'm supporting myself, the tenant is just paying the mortgage.
It's ALL about wealth transfer!! They want your equity and your house!!!
Right. It is a well orchestrated plan! People need to start waking up to EVERYTHING that is going on!
It's not your house if you have a mortgage on it. A person with a mortgage is simply a custodian for the bank, the bank's serf or vassal, until they pay what's owed. The tenants are serfs to the "custodian". Only the "lord of the manor" holds the deed. Words matter but social conditioning is heavy. The phrase "I own a home," is designed to make one feel as of they accomplished something but all that they accomplished is 15 - 30 years of debt servitude on purpose because they own nothing but "equity" - a blip on a screen and line item in a ledger book. 🤔👑
Hahahahaha yep that’s right every since I payed my house off September 2019 I have been getting emails texts phone calls and letters in the mail from different people wanting to buy my house. And they are relentless but they are trying to capitalize on the plan I have been working on for 20 years and I cannot sell my self out now I can save all my money and then some.

@@hermanrogers1325 Thank you. These people can't see past the trees. Once I paid mine off in June of 2019 banks I've never heard of began soliciting me...banks from as far away as Switzerland, Italy, and Germany. My net worth jumped to $2M and all of a sudden everyone is my friend. 🙄🍻
The paper work to get the funds is crazy. Wait the renter has child care ?????
So let me get this straight. She moved out of the place she was in bc she couldn't pay (did the right thing) yet she is homeless bc her renters won't move out or pay. Got it.
Instead of pointing blame at helpless American citizens, it's time to hold the government's feet to the fire. They handled this mess like they're running a Third World country. They're keeping the aid money and not paying this landlord, like they should.
Our government loves to point to the powerless and blame them. This one is squarely on the shoulders of the government. They did NOT do the right thing, which is why this situation exists all over the country.
Landlord should have saved some of that rent money instead of using it on drugs.

Agreed
Or get great fire 🔥 insurance and burn the place down! Or get a Big Bubba
I would have told my landlord to move in with me and I would've slept on the floor while she and my kids sleep in beds. At least that way when the moratorium is up there's less of a risk of being evicted for non payment. It takes a village, folks! In times past, even in the U.S., families and neighbors helped each out and squeezed into tiny spaces to make do. Ridiculous that this hasn't been an option for these two families.
Unfortunately the states like New York she would be arrested. You just cannot enter into your tenants apartment without notice a reason

In this situation, I feel for the landlord. I will always have a soft spot for veterans. They’ve served this country for the freedoms we all love, and she’s homeless. I hope she gets her money, and her house soon. That other lady better start looking for a new place!
My opinion is that landlords should be allowed to evict non-payers, but in this case it’s hard for me to judge that way: veterans get something called VA loans that help them with buying their house, but it seems like this lady is using that to start buying multiple properties as a source of income. It’s not meant for that. It’s meant to help veterans have a home to live in. She’s taking advantage of the program.
@@ziaf999 no they are allowed to buy properties just like non-veterans. The point is she probably did buy her own house but because she's not getting the money from her rental properties she can't pay her own mortgage...why she is homeless.
@@ziaf999 you can only buy one house at a time with a VA loan and it has to be your primary residence
@@av8rr after 1-2 years you can rent that out and then buy another to live in. I am glad our vets can set themselves up well for now and the future if they hustle. They signed the leases and so should be on the hook for it. Child Support and Alimony can still get wages garnished, I think the government needs to have a fair way to unwind this.
@@zachm.4881 you can only get one VA loan at a time. You would have to refinance your first VA loan on the new buyer to get a new VA loan for your new primary residence or have them assume the loan if the new buyer is a vet.
The government should give the landlord her house back.
If the government is going to protect these tenants, they should pay the landlord a 100% cost of rent
The goverment is Democrat, so they're usually gonna do the wrong thing. In NY, the new liberal housing law allowed tenants to stay for up to 1 year for free (2019, BEFORE the pandemic).
She could of sold her house and bought a cheaper one.. still wait for her rent.. but we are not getting the 30thousand a year back from that government shutdown.. blame the tenants as we are all in the same boat. The only safe people here is the government that shut us down only gave school people money NOT WORKERS.. work is not full hours and if you get fever 10days out. We are not getting back our money we missin from shutting us down EITHER.. a PERSON made 50 thousand last year lucky to 15 of it this year.

@@jennifersuzannebk5149 When you sell your house, sometimes you get socked with pretty severe taxes. You think she had $10k just lying around? It's not so easy to just "buy a cheaper house", when Congress (namely, Dems) are loading the big banks full of cash (that's how they're funding the reckless spending), and the banks like JP Morgan are literally buying up thousands of homes at a time with all that extra money.
She doesn't have to upheave her whole life plan because some tenants don't want to offer ANY rent whatsoever, even a fraction
So unfair for this landlord. How can you own three houses and still be homeless. Start the evictions now!!!
Exactly
Because her tenants are playing victims.
So you’re worried about the landlord being homeless but not the tenants
@@mikemadsen7926 the tenants said they technically still have 2 incomes earners. Which means they could pay at least something but they didn't because of excuses of their son being autistic and child care. Pretty much it doesn't make a difference since they had these problems before the pandemic. Also she obviously recovered from covid and so did her family. If it was a severe case of covid-19 she would say she has medical bills to pay just like all the stuff she point out she has to pay.

Lmao bro
It’s kinda both sides at fault here to be honest … why doesn’t she just get a job ? If this landlord was living off the rent of other poor people that’s also a issue cause chances are most of the rent money went into the landlords pocket instead of maintenance… he’ll look at the house the tennant was in didn’t look like a lot of upkeep was done on that house so wtf is the point of paying rent?

Dont worry black rock will buy them cheap and everyone will be renters.
Now she knows how the tenants feel.
Yes
And the landlord wants to make her homeless during a vulnerable time.
Why don’t you move out of your house and offer it to her then and she won’t be homeless during this vulnerable time??? Yeah.
Why are these people 'vulnerable' and get to live for free? I'm 69 years old and work full time through the whole pandemic and pay my bills. I show up for work not missing a day. Why are these freeloaders so valuable to society they are kept for free at a landlord's expense? The government has absolutely no intention to distribute that money.
What tenants fail to realize is eventually they're going to be homeless themselves because the landlord's going to be forced to sell the property. A tenant should do everything they can to make the rent.
One of my coworkers stopped paying rent before the pandemic and still isn't paying rent. Woman has a full time job and won't pay rent. She knows the the rodeo since she has done this before.
Anyone that has a job or received PUA should be obligated to pay rent. I don't want my tax money to go to landlords if the tenants are more than capable of paying the rent.
She’s not getting off. Once the moratorium ends she’s on the hook for all that back rent.
Lots of states are blocking this negative credit from being reported and affecting credit. Theoretically she can move and not have to deal with the consequences
There are two people I know indirectly doing the same thing. When they received $1200 per child, they decided to have a vacation, buy clothes and chill. They knew they had overdue rent but kept saying they didn't have to pay yet. What they are doing is stockpiling the money and will move once the moratorium is over.
This is a shame poor lady I hope she gets her homes back

The foreclosure moratorium has ended. Homeowners can lose their homes, but can't force tenants to pay, or evict them. Then the eviction moratorium will end, which will allow the banks to evict the renters.
Your claim that it seems like greed that a landlord expects to be paid the agreed upon rental amount leads me to think that you're a rent dodging freeloader.

A veteran who owns 3 houses is homeless with her little girl and the government isn’t stepping in to fix the situation. There’s no way in the world this should be happening in America. The fact that it is should be a warning to all Americans; your leaders don’t give a darn about you.
The advantage of renting is that you don't have to pay for property tax and maintenance cost.
That's the point of renting. If the renters don't pay, the landlord not only lose out on profit but also have to pay from their own savings to pay taxes and maintenance cost. They are landlords. Not slumlords.
lolololz. Renters still play for those. Because no landlord is not going to include those in the price of the rent itself.
@@SableTwilight Renters who don't pay their rent don't pay for those. Freeloaders like this are taking advantage of government authorized theft of private property and it's disgusting. The landlord should not be on the hook to support these losers.
she should live with one of her tenants, since they wanna be petty. she can be petty too
Lol i thought the same thing- she should just move in. If they want to stay fine, but they'll have a new roomate
I think all americans have proved we're all good at being petty.
Interesting enough there's no law against that. If she could stand to be near them like that then that's her solution.
The problem is the tenants probably don't want to live with their landlords and hasn't offered that suggestion. Also that tenant was talking about she and all her family has covid and her child are austic which was why she can't pay rent even if they have two incomes earners. Pretty much everyone only is going to look out for themselves even if they take advantage of someone else.
She can't.

Smh its unfair to her not to be able to live in her house. I pray that this works out for her and that she can keep her house.
The "landlord's" problem was believing she was anything but the *vassal* she was and her "tenants" are serfs. *All tenants are serfs.* All. The "lord of the manor" is the bank; *all she did was voluntarily enter into *debt servitude as custodian* to the bank, their vassal, in exchange for use of the space while maintaining its upkeep. She never owned the properties. That's where her problem started. False belief from social conditioning. 🤔👑
Same thing happened to me. Forced to be homeless because my squatters thought they were more entitled to my house than me. 6 months and 12k in the hole later. I got my house back. Still no rent relief for me. I love how squatters have more rights than owners.
It's a shame bullets can't work in your situation.
Now this is not right. I definitely agree that some protections for tenants need to be in place. But some of these laws that protects tenants is outrageous. How is this right?
@Jeff C I do get it. That is why I said this is not right.
Her story does not add up all property owners qualify for eviction/foreclosure moratorium including her i smell greed and the karma that follows
I like how this story showed both sides of the story. However, if I was the renter, I would move out. It's the right thing to do... since she won't be able to pay the years worth of back rent and living somewhere rent free is wrong. Maybe she can find some relatives to live with? The landlord shouldn't have to live in her car when she owns two properties
I think If you were really in those women shoes you would think differently. No one volunteers for homelessness just because of ethics. She’s a mom with kids with special needs she’s going to stay till she’s forced out.
She has kids they can give her a place to live she just needs to sign up for it.
No she would rather be selfish and take what is not hers .
The two sides of the story shows the quagmire that our society is currently in. Economic woes, government unprepared for this crisis, etc. Not so that we can judge on individuals. The situation should be blamed on why the landlord is not receiving the aid that they're "entitled" to? What's I'm confused is that why this owner is homeless? Where did she live before? How can you own three properties and not actually living in one of them? The story is only saying that she "has fallen on some hard times". More details would be nice.

@@RichD49 You are right, the government has set up the system so that the actual property owners can be legally played by tenants. If the tenants should be allowed to stay rent free thanks to government legislation, well then the rent should be paid by the government, that would be the logic. Absolutely crazy, would never fly in my country.
There are two distinct issues here. One is how to help people facing eviction. The other is government confiscation of private property. No other group of people in this pandemic have been forced to provide a good or service to another except landlords (free housing). Somehow these two issues have been comingled. Many landlords like myself are elderly and invested their retirement to generate income during their retirement. Not slumlords. Not wealthy corporations, just regular, ordinary, hard working people. The politicians had no problem issuing checks to tenants, why is it difficult to do the same to landlords. The rental assistance program has to be applied for by the tenants. Landlords only verifying what they are owed. A landlord cannot initiate the application process and if the tenant refuses, that’s it. We are left out of the process.
I would like to ask this one question for all these “housing advocates”. If you checked your checking account and found some of your $ missing that you worked for. When you questioned where is my $ and we’re told, legislators thought you should give it to someone else so that’s what we did. No laws just unlawful takeover. How many of you would be agreeable with that? I’ll wait
tenants who don’t pay rent are evil
Literally every single retail shop and store has a help wanted sign. The eviction moratorium should have ended months ago
Major problem is that day care centers are mostly still closed and with schools closing once again this will remain a problem.
And those retail shops aren’t paying livable wages that can’t even afford to pay for rent or even the back pay.
💯
But this squatter said their were two adults and only one income yet she is paying child care supposedly. Want to get all their other bills are paid?
This landlord’s problem with the tenants not paying their rent should be a powerful message to potential landlords not to get involved with being a landlord!
Don’t bother owning three houses unless they are going to be a second; and third home!
They weren't even being owned. The lady was underwater on these loans the day she signed them. You dont rent what you dont own

All businesses and careers have risks. Are you going to say people shouldn't get into any of the industries closed by the government or reduced demand during the pandemic?
It's her property so technically she should be able to move in with the tenants if she wants, that will be enough to make them beat it. I'm sorry the tenants got kids but she is screwing over the landlord and making her homeless because shes essentially taking advantage of her by not even offering a dime. I would have gave as much as I could. Some people are abusing the system.
Actually illegal due to "quiet enjoyment" laws, which mean that regardless of the landlord being the owner, they cannot just show up whenever they want, and certainly can't attempt to move in if you haven't been legally evicted. If she does so, the tenant could have her arrested for trespassing and probably bring a lawsuit for violation of housing law.
Let that be a lesson to you folks.
Earn your own income and stop depending on renters to make a living.
Landlords need to stop being landlords and get real jobs.
So they should evict all their tenants, then burn down the houses, and get a job at McDonald's. That will solve the housing problem.
this has to be the stupidest thing i ever read
Where would the 35% of the population who rent live? That's 10's of millions of people who wouldn't have a place to live. Providing a home for someone is no different than a grocery store providing food, plumbers and electricians providing their services, car sales and rentals, Dr's & dentists etc providing their services. A house is not free to purchase or maintain and some people simply cannot afford or qualify to buy a house and some simply prefer to rent instead of owning.
@@daytondave3034 The rent-haters argument is that if landlords are banned home prices will drop and all those renters would be able to buy homes. It's a ridiculous argument.
We owned a one single townhouse property in Illinois for about a decade that we rented out. It was never ever easy and when our last tenant stopped paying, we had no idea that it would likely take 4-6 months to go through the eviction process. That was back in 2019. Thankfully we got the tenants to move out without having to file for eviction, but they left us with 4 months of unpaid rent, and over $15,000 in damages. It was awful. We sold the unit and vowed to never be a landlord again. My heart go out to all the small landlords who are struggling to to pay the mortgages on their properties with no means to evict. I can’t imagine living in someone else’s property and not making any effort to pay something.
In so confused what happened to the money the unemployed said they were getting from the government? some of them even said you were getting paid more than before so why are they not able to pay rent?
Cause they are leeches and think stuff should be handed to them for free. After all that stimulus and the extra $600 a week, they could afford to pay their rent.
@@itswedgytime my brother did it. when he got laid off, the money he received from the government he saved some and paid his rent. if he couldn't pay the whole thing for the month he worked something out with the landlord. Some people are just entitled
