Wake Up !! Don't you know YET that the function of the news media is not only to report the news but to create the news as well ??? News outlets care about NO One but themselves and what story "sells" the best. This is what happens to Freedom of The Press when it's put into the hands of Greedy Capitalists. American Propaganda looks down at nations where The Press is "controlled" by the government, but how can that be worse than the Media Circus allowed here in America ???
The reporter Jarosz is barking up the wrong tree. These people look very reasonable. Their tenants have not paid rent since last May. Maybe reporter should interview the tenants.
Rent moratorium make it harder for tenants to find place. Many landlords are NOT renting anymore. Can’t blame the landlords. Too many tenants abused the situation. Landlords are NOT your parents .
This is a legal eviction as the landlord is selling the property. Those tenants are trying to get over. They haven’t paid rent in over a year, but have a money for an attorney. Smh. That poor couple is stressed out and those tenants have cost them $35k in out of pocket cost because they refuse to leave. Smh.
Landlord must follow the legal way,Harassment is not legal and does not pay including and not limited to sending his wife to get some English classes since they live in the USA. And both should go to free classes on how to rent real estate with a nice contract or lease to avoid this nonsense.It's all made up story to evict the poor tenants.Even the son moving in,The court knows that don't you worry son.
I'm a renter and I totally agreed with this home provider. They have all the rights within the law to do what ever they want with their own property. It's disturbing to me, how this reporter make it like they're bad people?. These free loaders did took advantage of this home provider and covid. The renter did not do the right thing.
The City Needs to Build more Low income Project Housing for these Tenants. Because the Private Income Properties Owners are Running out of money to Maintain their Propertys.
My buddy got illegally evicted from his house by his landlord because his landlord sold his house and since then, he had been living in a hotel and he had to pay $4,000 a month in rent for a hotel in the state of California and I feel bad for him because the landlord did something illegal
Most landlords are greedy scumbags. They're in this mess because of how much they've screwed over tenants by asking for overpriced rents, charging the maximum they can charge, and basically robbing people blind.
Landlord knows his legal rights with the moratorium. 3:33, do a substantial remodeling because the unit posed a health and safety threat 3:43 , tenant must leave if its a family member that will move into the property. Also
If you have more than one house you don’t need it and it should be made public housing. Stop househoarding and creating artificial scarcity. Housing is a human right.
no ding dong. They are call legal aid societies and they are non-profits. They have been around for a while thanks to the greed of land lords. My favorite is land lords complaining about the tents.
These tenants just wanted to live there and not pay rent. I feel sorry for this old couple. Most of these renters are blaming the landlords but look who is actually suffering with the mortgage payments? The renters are taking advantage of the landlords.
Come on! They want free rent. Isn't that obvious? California let people live for free invoking the covid moratorium and take stuff from supermarket for free up to $950
Why aren't they able to pay and why aren't these tenants on benefits or a rent paying program that can assist all parties involved, sounds like scammers and squatting unfortunately. Without hearing the other side.
Landlords received the same amount of assistance from the government as the tenants , if you're not shady you signed up for the assistance so now your not innocent
I can't afford it is not an excuse when you are paying Bay Area rent while also trying to save money to get a new place lol. He's acting like he "did them a favor" and is some moral hero.
What people commenting fail to realize hes lying. He said he wanted them to leave BECAUSE they found MOLD. then the mold was FIXED. Now its cuz they want to SELL. Then he says "if my son wants to move in there" QUESTION: Can you legally sell a home with mold issues? Gotta think of the way he specifically words it. Why doesn't he sell to the tenants? "Its not my job to assist, im not a family member"... but his son is... he wants his son to live there (which is why hes no longer renting, son doesn't need to pay rent if hes fixing it up for them... til they "sell". Oh and actually if you force someone to move, especially to sell, youre usually required to pay moving expenses. That's your story
He doesn't get to decide what's an excuse if the tenants genuinely can't afford it, they can't afford it and he needs to accept that reality and live with it. It's more convenient for him to say it's an excuse so he doesn't look like the bad guy and doesn't feel bad about his decision.
That was some good reporting. Renting is a double-edged sword. On one hand you have renters struggling to make their rent trying to make it honest living on the other side you have landlords trying to make their property payments and having tenants that are abusing the moratorium and not paying a cent to their landlords. So landlords have no other way out but to sell their properties.
@@blkimble but he's not the one that's been paying on it. He only had to start paying for the property when he tried to illegally evict the tenants. Just because your name is on something doesn't mean it's yours if you're not the one paying for and taking care of it. Most landlords don't maintain their properties and when they get too outdated they just evict the current tenant, use all the tenants money to update it and rent it out at a higher rate. Landlords are scum.
Im going through the same thing as a tenant. Im not necessarily being harassed but I have to move because he wants to sell. But the bottom line is it's his house. The property is yours only if your name is on the deed.
@@blkimble it's cute that you think that, but that's not reality. You can write down laws to say whatever you want them to say but if you're the person that pays for the property and you're the person that maintains it day today then it's yours. I don't give a f*** what some piece of paper says with somebody else's name on it. Are they there everyday taken care of it? No are they paying the mortgage on it? No the tenant is.
I don't know what state this is in, but typically if a landlord is giving tenants a notice to vacate for no cause, or in this case the owner wanting to remodel so they can sell the property, or even if they just want to remodel, usually relocation assistance is required by law by the Lanlord. I'm in Oregon, so I know for sure out here that is how it is. I'm not sure about other states though.
Lucky my family is mafia, let some tenant not leave when asked I dare him or her, trust me they'll only be asked to move for not paying or not keeping the property in good shape.
They should leave. The audacity of the renters to feel like they have the right to stay and still not pay any rent. They are harassing the Landlord by not leaving.
There should be a cap of tenants who haven’t paid rent like up to 2 months or 3 months. Because this isn’t right at all. But for some reason other companies can take automatic payments like gyms, subscriptions, apps etc. yes it’s a home, but if you can’t afford it and the state should offer those who can’t afford rent to more affordable homes. If they can’t pay now, how will they catch up on all the missing payments esp if it’s more than 3 months? There needs to be a cap on it. If the government supports free rent, then they need to offer homes from the state rather than private properties.
I wonder does the act that calm outside of the news reporter and outside of the police vision…. Because if he was if someone approached me with that type of kindness I would cooperate… there’s something else going on. I can see it in his eyes….
He was selling narcotics between Tucson and Green valley according to the police he wasn't receiving va disability because he was in military prison for narcotics use with 2 prior duis
Yeah the landlords aren't innocent most are slumlords who collect rent but don't fix anything. Unfortunately people are getting rewarded for not paying their bills there are programs that will pay up to 12 months of back rent if you didn't pay your bills but if you did pay your bills and just need a little help now , no help , don't be mad because some people know how to work the system
The costs for property ownership include maintenance, some utilities, and, of course, property taxes. DA VIRUS did not stop these factors. Someone's got to pay and I'm thinking its this couple.
I must be missing something because it sounds like these people only tried to evict them after a problem was found and then solved. And why are they renting themselves if they own rental properties? That just sounds like they're completely unintelligent. He's saying he won't accept rent. He's admitting that he wants them out just so he can make it nicer and charge more.
Seems like a reasonable and honest man being put through the ringer by a bad tenant. But one never really knows the real motive for evicting someone. Courts tend to be pretty sympathetic to renters since the apartment is technically their home; it's where they live. Losing your home is seen as a much bigger loss than the $35,000 the landlord lost, since he still has a home to live in. Eventually, the tenants will have to leave, though. Let's hope they treat the property with respect, and just pack their things and go when the time comes. The landlord will probably never see the money he is owed. Yes, it's a pain in the neck to have to move from one place to another. I get it. Maybe the landlord could help them find another place in the same neighborhood at around the same price, even though he shouldn't have to do it. But it would be one way to try to finally end this madness.
Money he is owed? Landlords are useless Middle Men who make their money off the hard work of others. They didn't earn that money. This is their just desserts for trying to make money off someone else's home. Landlords are half the reason we have such a house in crisis in this country.
I saw this last night on the news it seemed like a joke. It was so obvious those guys were scammers. I don't get if it's so bad why won't they leave. I had a annoying landlord I moved out as fast as I could. This sounds so crazy.
The reporter is harassing the landlord! As a renter, I think it is disgusting how renters are allowed to take advantage of landlords. If they can afford a lawyer, they can afford to pay rent. Losers!
If they have a lawyer then I'm willing to bet his money is in an escrow account. He literally said he won't accept their money even if they tried to pay him. This man tried to make money off of somebody's else's home without any work on his own part. Why hasn't he been making these improvements over time? He's a slumlord. And not a very smart one considering he's renting himself. How are you going to be a renter yourself when you own rental properties?
But landlords are the deadbeats. They're useless middlemen who make their money off the hard work of others. They don't do any actual work and they don't deserve the money they get either.
Who said they weren't paying rent? He said he found mold and that it was taken care of. If your landlord is trying to kick you out illegally why would you pay them rent?
Feel bad for these people .
They seem reasonable.
They haven’t paid in 8 months .
Geez

Why don't you show us the squatters instead of the small landlord
And why the he.l did you think it was ok to open their gate and just walk onto their property.
Lol the land lords are trying to become squatters. Why do you rent to these landlords.
Because there’s victims .. 👍🏻
Because showing the squatters don't fit the narrative.

Agreed.
Guess they gotta do AirBNB. Lol
Please tell me the reporter isn’t really that dense. He is trying to help the landlords by playing the devil’s advocate, right?!?
I hope so. If not he’s a terrible person
Help the landlord? lol!! It's the tenants that should be helped. These landlords always lie. That dude probably owns various units he overprices.
This is crazy. It's their house - they can sell it. Basic fact. The rest only strengthens their case.
Poor guy, I hope the property sells fast for him.
They stopped paying their rent last May...I'm with the Lanlord on this one! Good man
This is a legal eviction as the landlord is selling the property. Those tenants are trying to get over. They haven’t paid rent in over a year, but have a money for an attorney. Smh. That poor couple is stressed out and those tenants have cost them $35k in out of pocket cost because they refuse to leave. Smh.

How can they fix this if they won’t let him in plus they are free loaders trying to get over
@@grszghhbcdtuj905 Did you not hear the part where they said that was taken care of?
I'm not buying the landlords side something is off
all landlords have a right to evict any horrible tenants to protect their INVESTMENTS!!!!
Professional tenant. Reasonable landlord
Pay your rent or get a tent. Where you go is not landlord's business.
but you guys are complaining about the tents.
@@chasingsunsets87 We will NOT complain about the tents if they are in the right place. Like a remote dessert or an island. LOL

Liberal policies smh. Sf sucks
The eviction moratorium started when trump was president..

the landlord is a loser
The state of California should be ashamed. Allowing tenants not to pay. Nobody thinks about the mess the landlord is in.
Most landlords are greedy scumbags. They're in this mess because of how much they've screwed over tenants by asking for overpriced rents, charging the maximum they can charge, and basically robbing people blind.
They want FREE FREE FREE RENT ! Kick them out. You have the right to evict them since you’re selling the property.
Landlord knows his legal rights with the moratorium.
3:33, do a substantial remodeling because the unit posed a health and safety threat
3:43 , tenant must leave if its a family member that will move into the property. Also
landlord, goodluck.
If I had this problem I would sell my rentals
The bad part about rental properties is that if you get a bad tenant, they can drag it out for at least 9 mos
Sometimes longer if the tenant knows how to drag things out. Our eviction process took much longer as the tenant kept denying he got the paperwork.
I feel sorry for the owner people are taking advance for not paying the rent
i’m with the landlord on this one… lots of people are afraid to rent and get taken advantage of
If you have more than one house you don’t need it and it should be made public housing. Stop househoarding and creating artificial scarcity. Housing is a human right.
The people who've rent that house have enough money to to get a lawyer But they have no money for rent they are Milking the system

If you cant even pay your mortgage dont rent to people omfg 😂
Shame on reporter for harrasing landlord
Ask news guy to find who is buying rentals other than greedy corporations
Greedy lazy people as well. Like this old man.
People need to get back to work
Sleazy way to get into the middle of their personal issue. Especially not know anything.
Come on! They want free rent. Isn't that obvious? California let people live for free invoking the covid moratorium and take stuff from supermarket for free up to $950

Why is it that there’s a moratorium, but tenants are not required to show proof?
This guy said he's out 35k? Not after the insane equity gained in the last year alone.
The tenants paid their mortgage and now they want to sell the property.
Unbelievable.
Landlords received the same amount of assistance from the government as the tenants , if you're not shady you signed up for the assistance so now your not innocent
Interview the tenants-
I don’t feel sorry for the landlord he probably is harassing them
But if the can’t afford to
Move how the get a lawyer
This landlord is being wronged by the legal system.
