If they were serious about protecting people's health, any shutdown orders would be accompanied by payments to all citizens who need it so they can afford to stay home.
I have an idea. Why not save for a time like these? Or why not show up at the court hearing? Or before crying, trying to look for all the assistance out there? Or work a little harder to look for a job? Why not getting a job as a Uber driver?
@@Westcoastguy Are you kidding? They should be making sure everyone gets a check at least once a month until this is over! We pay for all this with our taxes! Its not all our faults that they royally screwed up the economy and fighting covid.
Five years ago, I told my financial advisor that my main goal was to pay off my house. HE said that was not a good idea. I got a new financial advisor.
When someone tells you not to payoff your house, run away from them fast because they don't have any insight of what could happen in the future! Stick with that plan God has implanted in your spirit so you can avoid homelessness or anybody trying to evict/ foreclose on you!
I took out a loan on my nice payed off truck to pay my house off when the pandemic started. I'm still doing great, thank God. But it is a major relief have a paid off home! I paid the price over the years out in the refineries, grabbing as much overtime as I could, knowing things could change on a dime.
I legit know people who believe it is better to rent than own a home. Like leasing a car. I tell them 'so you never intend to retire cause you will be risking eviction at 80 if you can't get that landlord his money'. It's insane. There's nothing like owning your home and knowing no one can kick you out.
I’m literally being evicted and the sheriff can come any day now. It’s just a sad true reality of what’s going on, I have to put everything in storage or lose everything
Do you have anywhere to go? I can help you find some resources in your area. I’m a social worker so I can help if you need it!! I hope things workout well for you
Long after the pandemic we will be seeing the unintended consequences of this. These evictions stay on their records for years making it nearly impossible for them to get another place even if they are financially stable
2nd chance financing. They will charge huge fees for all borrowing. This will be a huge money windfall for the banks doing secondary financing. (Bottom feeding) 40 million new secondary borrowers. This will o the en the flood gates for predatory lending, yet again.
If that's the case they need to make a bill that declares any evictions on record during the pandemic null and void and wipe it off their record. In fact it should be done now while their figuring out this next stimulus bill. These people don't have to be homeless they probably just need a cheaper place to stay but they can't because of the record.
If you dnt own the property, (still have payments) you shouldnt be able to rent out the property. We new legislation preventing people from bottom feeding on the poor, including other poor people.
lol, there are other options besides scumwanna be lords and gov Housing. Nice try though. People not being able to afford what they claim to own is the problem. People shouldnt need to occupy "your" property for you to have to pay or you are on borrowed time and looking for handouts and bailouts when stuff like this and 08 happen. But from the financial side, many of these 2nd 3rd home loans are the problem. People juggling to try and make payments. If everyone focused on owning one house, the market wouldnt be inflated so high and the true value of these houses would be seen. But as long as realtors have foreign investors in china and other places the price of housing in cities will be high. Oh, you didnt know American realtors advertising in china for property ownership and rental is a thing. Lol.
If you didn’t pursue a career/trade, didn’t save/invest or live within means pooping out babies you couldn’t afford,etc..... The jokes on you. I just retired 15 years early debt free and no financial issues. Great year for me.
@@The25Sister Not sure what you’re talking about. And I don’t speak or type profanities. Did I say anything that was not true? Where did I say anywhere that nothing can happen to me? Heck I’ve been to over 60 countries off the beaten path in most since early 90s., I scuba dive, sail, backpacking all over the world so too late to be thinking things can happen to me. I have global medical insurance. I’m just living my life and this is how it’s been this year. I’ve alway saved, invested, lived within means, and stayed out of debt. Pay off home quickly even though many said I was stupid for doing so. Saved and paid cash for my rentals even though I was called stupid for doing this as well. From doing so I have no issues. I did not want to be dependent on government, banks, and “leverage”. No drama. Just is what it is. I took advantage of my choices and freedoms to live this way in the USA and the world. If you did not the joke is on you as well. My health is fine. Not fat or on any medication. Doing a 36 hour fast right now. I don’t see what that has to do with anything. If I get sick I will get sick no big deal.
@@blackworldtraveler3711 So this is like a joke to you? The truth can be spoken in many ways. Your way of telling the truth is full with arrogance and devaluation.
@@The25Sister Heck you don’t even know how this thread started with the joke part. And I see you delete the other part because nobody posting here to help others. Still the truth. No large letters and no profanities abbreviated or otherwise.
The debt comes from the lies of government. You pay us a little every month we will give you what you want. Turns into debt. College loans because we tell our kids you have to go to college to be someone important. What an ignorant statement. Debt? Is fake. Just like money is fake. Why not help out your neighbors who are your brothers and sisters. We are all in this together. If we allow that to be the message during this time we can come out of this better as a nation.
Yep. The money is OURS. We get the bill from the IRS. We pay the bill. The money is supposed to be for us. It's an agreement between taxpayers and the government, a civil contract, They need the money. We give it to them, Now that we really need it, remember that we loaned the government money for this purpose.
I feel bad for her.. But GIRLAA....you should know not showing up for the court hearing is an automatic win for the LL..smhhh🤦..after that....it dont matter if you have 20,000 on you ...once them marshalls pull up.... dassit 🤦🤦🤦
There needs to be a class-action lawsuit. The people vs. the United States of America and include each state in the union. All tenants, landlords, small business owners, contract workers, etc should sign up as the people and then some. It is wrong for the government to shut down the economies of each individual person renting. The landlords as well. How is it legal for a government to shut down the economy and then not do anything to mitigate the consequences of such acts. It is negligent, life-threatening and even a threat to national security when a majority of your country is homeless. If that doesn't raise a red flag and let the people know their government is a failure, I don't know what is.
I've worked in property management for 8 years. These companies will regret these actions in the long run...when they start to bleed. The best thing landlords could and should do right now is to work with long term tenants with strict payment plans In place. The fact that the market is the way it is and there are more more unemployment claims being filed weekly does not guarantee that they will be able to find somebody to replace the tenant therefore losing long term tenancy (which is the goal)which equals lost income for them in the long run. I can bet that within 3 to 4 months most of these companies will have to ignore the fact that there are evictions just to keep tenants or to get new tenants so that they can actually afford to pay their bills. I wouldn't be surprised if evictions are removed from credit scores the same way that student loans are. Not to mention the money that they have to put out to rehab the units once the tenants leave. Considering The Times we are in this is not a normal eviction situation and these companies should be a lot smarter and empathetic. To most not all… because some tenants may just be irregular with payments or not reliable. Those tenants are a risk. But it's worth the risk to see to help a long term standing tenant with a good payment history . It's really sad to see the greed of these companies when there is a way for long term tenants who pay consistently and on time to be worked with.
This is one of the best comments i have read regarding the current eviction crisis in America! Damn right, we need more property management companies that are smarter and more empathetic!
I was thinking this too. If a renter has an eviction, and can't rent in the future for however many years, how is that going to help the landlords recover later? This is just sad all the way around. Wow. America is turning into an actual third world country.
The moment you loose your home, you will discover what rights you really have. Homeless doesn't mean your lazy or you don't mean to pay your bills. It literally means you're Homeless. You could literally have a full-time job and simply not have a home to go to.
Yep, and its hard once you are homeless to get back up. Invisible people on here has shown quite a few people who have jobs, or had them and were still homeless. One had at one time been a millionaire.
@@bIGeVIL760 absolutely not true. Not sure where you get your information from. I have several units both residential and commercial and nothing from the government to help. Meanwhile we as landlords still have insurance water bills and taxes. It is really a shame that the government passed this on to landlords as if we are supposed to pay for free housing for people. Why would the government make private entities..many are mom and pop landlords and make them carry other grown adults and families for months on end. Furthermore these people are not going to suddenly be able to pay all of this so they should have government help
@@copperpenny7639 exactly! And any help the state does offer... isn’t enough to catch some people up... and also they want “90 day no evicts if you accept any help for a tenant! It’s hard for everyone right now! Just because someone is a landlord... don’t make them loaded!
@@Network126 mean to tell me she doesn't have a phone? She's not working so she shouldn't have work schedule conflicts. Can't tell me she doesn't have money. Look at her hands and hair. Priorities need adjusting. She didn't show to her court date. Yes, life really is that simple. All she had to do was pick up the phone and call. Nope she knew she could have paid her rent and chose luxury over necessity and knew that wouldn't fly in court.
@@lildebbieyvonne And she got evicted back in November so who's to say what her hair and nails looked liked at that time. I understand what you're saying but still....
She should not have stopped working. I know it was probably seen as an opportunity to take a break, but the end result was not worth it. Many people are working through COVID so them bringing up the fact that a few tested positive on her job is pointless. Some simply cannot afford to stop working, it’s a cruel reality.
I would gladly take the job she WALKED AWAY FROM!! She had a good paying job but took leave because she was scared of COVID so she claims..although I'm sure she goes to Wal-Mart with no fear! That is a luxury not many can have just to say "I'm taking a leave from work until it's all better!" Sure if you have plenty of savings! I really think she saw her friends and family staying home and she wanted to do the same! Sure I hate to see anyone get evicted but in this case she had a good job!! She walked away to stay home watching Judge Judy!!
@@chrisreed26 in this case: we're in the middle of a pandemic that is killing 300,000 people. She was trying to take a break to protect her family from the virus. You lack empathy.

Are landlords seriously this stupid? She has a job and was making payments towards $2000 (which is NOT a lot of money) and her landlord decided to evict her??? Do they seriously think they're likely to get another reliable tenant easily in this climate? Especially after the money they will have to spend to fix up the unit. That's painfully stupid and short-sighted.
If you had the $900... why didn’t you give it to them in the first place? Also she missed her court hearing?? Something about Samantha’s story is fishy to me.
She really should have stuck with staying in work. That wasn't a good idea. I understand her reasoning but you do what you have to do to keep the money coming in when you have no other choice.
@Antioch Carrillo insensitive and irrational comment people are dying of the fucking virus are you stupid..blame the fucking system..she was playing it safe
Well you must be a real classic piece of s*** to think that people can just put their children in jeopardy just to make some money when the government should be helping you begin with
Seriously, I am not sure I'm on the postal worker's side. What does this say about the other workers continuing to work even with the risk? So are they just dumb for not taking the time off with a fraction of the pay? No, it's called taking responsibility because there are bills to pay and if you are fortunate enough to still have a job then pay the rent. That time off is for people who have managed their money well and have emergency funds. You can't live paycheck to paycheck and willingly stop working, still expect others to bail you out.
Yep. She thought someone was gonna pay her way and sat her entitled ass at home while the rest of us out here working. And missed her court date, she brought it on herself.
Exactly, I am also front line worker, battle this covid19 since it began early this year. But I never miss a day of work. 1 or 2 my coworkers got it and I have to be there 6-7 days a week. If the whole hospital employees stay home just because few workers get Covid, who will take care the patients? If 1 or 2 cashiers in the food market get Covid, the market will be closed? I deal with Covid19 everyday.
I know how she is feeling … I'm getting evicted with my 15 month old son because my landlord does not want to rent no more..... I have no where to go and I still have to go through this … government is a joke real people are hurting and starving …. I cry cause my heart hurts for everyone who has to deal with it....
@@ErikamGar - I wish I did but I don't have nobody - I am an only child and my parents aren't around... but we all have to just hope for the best you know
That’s easier said than done. At my job if someone has any symptoms they could easily b off without pay. I was hospitalized twice during the pandemic plus gave birth to a premature baby. The thought of choosing between health and money is disgusting
I think its an absolute outrage to evict anyone during this pandemic! I think it's outrageous in the amount of homeless we had before this pandemic!! With all that said " GO TO YOUR DAMN COURT HEARING"
@Get it Together 64 it also outrages that landlords across the country are going to end up loosing their houses due to foreclosure or that the county is going to take the house due to the property taxes not getting paid.
I agree with you, but the government should also pay the tenants rent because this is how landlords make a living they have bills as well, and mortgage to pay
All around it sucks. As a homeowner I still have to pay property taxes. I don't think any of these states/counties are giving homeowners and landlords a break on property taxes during the pandemic. I watched a video where some cities in Illinois they are raising property taxes on homeowners which is really screwed up.
This is all by design. They are purposely mandating an overreaction to a virus with a 99% survival rate to create this reallocation of wealth and assets back to banks and the elite after they used our tax dollars to bail out their poor financial decisions, repeatedly. It’s treason, pure and simple.
@IBLizZaRD what do you mean you're welcome? Her family members paid into disability in case them or their loved ones became disabled. Its not a fucking hand out. Its something we all pay into as a safety net for ourselves and our family members who could be born or disabled as children .
If landlords are evicting people because they are late on rent due to the pandemic then who will they get to take the place of the people they evict when this is an issue across the country? Protecting the landlords is a crap excuse
When the Lady didn’t go to court that’s when she messed up. People you have to show up to court because if you don’t your Landlord will win a Default of Judgment.
Yea but you are not hearing the whole story. I would be willing to bet there was a lot of heat between her and the landlord. I would be willing to bet she had a history of being late and being a problem in general. Landlords are not going to kick out good tenants.
It’s sad but I still have to work & we’ve had several employees test positive monthly. I can’t afford not too. A place to stay to me is more important right now. I can forgo lots of necessities till I can get back on track later in the future. 🙏🏻
@@reallyluckygirl1 You rationalize your reason to work, but if you get really sick and the avalanche of problems that comes with being sick 😷 staying home would seem less of the two evils.
They aren’t but like my landlord they are saying my lease was up in Nov and now even after giving the court and them the CDC memorandum I will be evicted Dec 24 with my daughter on Christmas EVE 💔💔
Yes they did her very dirty she had paid them already over half the rent actually had the rest of it when they came to come evict her why wouldn't they take the money and let her stay why would they press the eviction this is a crying shame
No they didn't, she should have showed up at the court hearing, she had ample opportunity and warnings, that's not how evictions work, had she went to court, she would have had a case, in this case, I have no sympathy, she was trying to game the system. She didn't even have a legit reason to stop working, she has an essential job, mail will run forever, no matter what.
@@derrickstewart9485 Right. If she actually had the money or knew she would have it in the next couple of days the judge probably would have sided with her. She had already paid 1500.00 by her court date. She wasn’t trying to pay or she wouldn’t have missed that court date. And I also don’t think “I didn’t know” is a good enough excuse. When you’re in a situation like that you should be calling every where you can to find help. I know because I was in this situation years ago. If you miss eviction court you automatically lose and the owner no longer has to work with you.
I am a landlord, in situations like this no one wins. I work with my tenants during these hard times but of course rent still has to be paid. Sadly the situation will only get worst.
If the government bailed out the banks & big corporations in , 2008 they can help these renters stay in there homes!!!!!! These politicians DNT care about hard working people!!!!!!!!!
That’s cheap rent anymore..Im in the Pacific Northwest and our rent just went up to $1125 (for a 500 SF, circa 1959 built apartment). You can’t FIND a house to buy with a price tag low enough to allow for a mortgage *under* $1800-$2000/month. It’s truly not doable anymore around here.
The first woman took time off thinking that she doesn't have to pay the rent due CDC regulations. She did this to herself. Many others in this situation were either laid off or can't find jobs. I don't feel for the first lady.
I noticed the same thing, she cut back her hours on her own, she was not compromised or had a compromised person living in her home. I think she took advantage of the situation and thought she could use it to get out of work and sit at home a little. I feel sorry for her daughter and the sister that took them in, now all cramped in a small condo/apartment.
I'm sorry but her job wasn't shut down, she didn't communicate with her landlord, she hasn't been trying to stay up.todate with whats going on and she MISSED HER COURT DATE. if you are a single mother with 2 kids, you go to work until you can't, you sacrifice whatever you have to, so that your kids are okay. I am a mother of an 18 month old, I haven't bought anything for myself aside from clothing(nothing cost more than $20) since 2 years before my daughter was born so I could save money, I always drive an older car so I don't have a payment and I save as much as I can. More people need to think this way, instead of since u have the money on your pocket to spend it on $200 uggs, and $100/mo on nails and another $200 on getting your hair done, it adds up, and you could have had a month of rent saved by just spending less for 3 months. Everyone always says, "I never thought it would happen to me" or depend on the Government, its just such a bad way to think, you will be on your own when u need help the most.
I agree in most of what your saying, but clearly she isn't rocking uggs, and her hair piece isn't worth $200.00 nor nails. It seems as if your stereotyping home chick which is pretty normal I guess.
@@derrickstewart9485 eviction moratorium is free money for a tenant. But forbearance is not free money for an owner. That money has to be paid back, likely in a lump sum once the forbearance period is up. If you don’t have it, you can get a foreclosure.
So I know we are in the middle of a pandemic and crisis, but this person chose not to go to work and take the family leave act to receive a 3rd less of her regular paycheck. She didn't say that her or her daughters had any underlying conditions that would put them at risk if she did catch Covid. On the flip side, if she was taking precautions to work, social distance, wear a mask and sanitize her hands, she would have been ok, even if her co workers did have the virus. I'm sorry, it sounds like she took advantage of an opportunity to not work. She didn't loose her job, she had an essential job. If there was some health risk, I could understand the reason for not working. The rest of her story, doesn't add up, how do you not know you are being evicted until 15 minutes before you had to move out. I'm sure there was a notice put on her door, and then she didn't show up for the court date. How do you not show up for a court date that is about you being evicted? I'm sure after that, there was a notice to quit placed on the door, so don't act like you didn't know the date they were coming. I can't have sympathy for someone that ignored all the warnings and as a last straw didn't go to court. On top of that she say she had the money to pay the rent, so why didn't you pay the rent if you had the money? She sounds like someone that was trying to game the system and it cost her the roof over her head.
Ignorant comment. Unless federal government starts: paying property taxes, paying landlords’ mortgages, utility bills, contractor and vendor services, the idea landlords should for some reason have to be the only ones footing the bill is asinine. And if you think the federal government can suddenly start paying those expenses incurred by landlords, you need to relearn how arithmetic works. Try not paying your cell phone bill and see how long the Covid excuse works until your service is disconnected.
Who is going to pay the landlord bills?you do understand your landlord probably has to pay on your home he has mortgage and bills to, what good are they when they lose your home to the bank because your unable to pay your bills their unable to pay their bills, it sucks all the way around it’s no no win situation.
@@pureblood8712 put a stop pay on everything associated with living expenses until covid is resolved. No land fees, no utility fees, nothing. Live free until everything is back to normal. It’s simple. But greed finds a way. Money is loved too much and the value of life has gone down. Open your eyes don’t be fooled.
We love Caleb and his friend there with him. This is what good will looks like. We need to stick together and stop letting these people divide. Much can be achieved as a team.
Living in a large city isn’t anything like living in a smaller town. I’m so sick of hearing from my family why I still haven’t bought a home. Maybe because I am a single woman living in Austin, TX where gentrification is rampant and even though I have a Masters degree, it’s in the social science field and the pay is crap! Literally, most of your salary goes to rent... Can’t afford to save even if I wanted to.
So true, been asked that so often. Its impossible to save n raise the children alone, while paying rent, living, and emergency expenses. I just keep saying I'm superwoman but I ain't God. Lol
If only you look at my life and tell me that owning a house is not possible I don't have a degree what so ever I am just SIMPLE just stop living like the Jones that all you have to do.
It can be done. It takes planning,short term sacrifice and a little discipline. Working with a professional that knows about every program to get the best loan. I’m a single woman living in Chicago our cost of living is twice and I’m less educated then you and I own.
Missing a court date? Dumb!!! I worked for the Post Office and would never have left despite the risk. The money is very good and plenty of overtime during this crisis! Would stay and take precautions and go to work rather than have my family put out into the streets!!
In this case, this eviction was her fault. She took a leave from work when she couldn’t afford to, she watched herself get behind on rent and she missed the hearing that was vital to her keeping her place... so basically she disregarded her own circumstances. They made a ruling to evict her because she wasn’t there.. and now she’s paying for it... how do you need help but ignore the court’s request for you to appear before the judge - which is the only person who can help you🤦🏽♀️ she caused this on herself
Best part is most of these older landlords scored their houses for no more than 50k and have already paid off their mortgages. Yet they raise rents to extreme amount as if they are still paying a 250k mortgage in todays market prices.
So let me get this straight; she intentionally misses her rental payments without letting her landlord know in advance as a heads up/see if they can come to an agreement until they begin filing paperwork against her?
I am not saying all tenants, but the tenant I have on my property are free loader, she refuse to allow me to inter my property, I hired a lawyer to write her a letter, to allow me to inter my own property, I don’t know what to do, she own me $ 10,000 she are a nightmare, this is not all, I am going to see rather my lawyer will talk to a judge to allow me to move on my property
Why is the narrative landlords vs renters? Who's demanding the money from the landlords? Maybe we need to shine the light on the real monsters making people homeless right now.
Thank you to Caleb Cossick for taking the time to give this important, needed information that can help renters during this awful pandemic. God bless everyone who is struggling at this time and may you all be safe.
So you stopped going to work and paying the full rent. And you didnt know you would get evicted 🤦♂️ that would happen to anyone that stops paying rent.
I feel for the tenants and I feel for the landlords. The problem is the US, the only first world country, didn’t want to provide monthly payments for citizens and residents to keep the economy running status quo. If this year has taught us anything it is that the government doesn’t care even during a worldwide pandemic. Either you can’t stay here or you can’t live paycheck to paycheck. Oh and try to learn about taxes cuz clearly we aren’t paying it to get help in time of need.
Wait until the world starts looking like the Night of the Living Dead..when u have all these people being evicted and living in the streets..that means NO ONE WILL BE SAFE..when the people get hungry they will have to eat😵
If you are a respondent in an eviction case, you can ask the Court to seal the case record. Then no 3rd party can get the information and report it to any of the 3 big credit reporting agencies. Also do not tell prospective landlords that you were evicted OR that you were ever homeless. If you are served with notice to vacate or a Summons and Complaint and you're in California, every court has a Self Help Resource Center and we can give you procedural information, blank forms, instructions on filing, fee waiver and referrals to local legal aid.
Landlords have bills as well. Only difference is, now they have your bills and yours. You can't punish someone for making good life choices and having property to rent out. Hopefully this teaches people to live within their means, and to save.
@@j.bennette3390 Put yourself in the landlord's shoes. Is she has some money to pay, you will work with her. She probably promised to pay on a certain day and kept delaying it. Kicking a tenant out is a lot of work and very stressful. It's the last resort. I know people in my life like her who promised to pay but there is always an excuse in the last minute. Eventually, they don't pay and you give up. That's their strategy. Think about it.
I work for the government and while some people did leave and get paid time off as special leave due to covid i continued to go in to work everyday until they told me I could work remotely. If you are an overall healthy person I don't believe covid is a huge threat but losing your income and home-now thats a way bigger threat. Don't let the fear mongering make you lose your practical senses. If you can continue working do so. If you are out of work-look for work. There are still jobs out there
So let me see if I understand.. First, she VOLUNTARILY left her job, failed to appear @ hearing for the eviction process, then withheld the funds to prevent her eviction, until the day of the eviction? I mean she literally stated, "I can get a money order to cover the arrears, if you give me a few minutes..?" This woman is NO victim. She's a FooL!! Priorities!!!
....so rental communities would rather have vacant units? Unemployment rates indicate that the probability of vacant units being occupied by new tenants is low, so why not give long term unproblematic tenants a break? Management companies can write off these losses.
Come here where the median for a one bed for the entire metro area is 2150 and the min wage is 13$/hour. Even at 15$/hour at 40 hours a week you make 2400$ a month in income, how do do you pay 2100? Only 5% of households have a Section 8 voucher here and the waitlists have been closed for years. Then snark about people not paying their rent.
SO after the moratorium, a big lump sum is going to be due. How many people are actually going to come up with the big lump sum? I say less than 10%. Maybe less than 5%. People love free stuff.
I agree. Not sure why she didn't because she has a car. Atleast she has a sister willing to take her in. Many people are in shelters, sleeping in cars or outside in the cold.
I wish I was a multi millionaire right now. If I was, I would pay as many people's rent as I could bare. But first, as a millionaire, I would DEMAND a meeting with our Government officials to advocate for the " working poor" and To reword the halt on evictions that would not Have ANY loop holes for landlords to slither through!! God Bless everyone. This makes me so sad.
I live in Florida and people have been evicted in my area. Even though its supposed to go into effect on Dec. 31, they have been kicking families out since August - September.
The banking sector is responsible for the moratorium..destroying property owners financially to enable the banks to prey on them and take over ownership..landlords cannot evict tenants but the banks do have that power..
everybody getting evicted should refuse to leave the property and get arrested. What do you think will happen when millions of people get arrested and put in jail. do you think they can keep these millions of people in jail. What do you think people will say when the jails have no room for rapist or murderers.
Nobody is saying punishing landlords, but if no tenant can lease property,why not work with the tenants making the payments and halting all the court fees and late fees on...Be real majority of the tenants are renting properties bought 3-4 times over and taxes are semi-annual and the local government often works out a deal with the property owner
Sad. They did her dirty, however she should've made sure she went to court!!!! You have to go to court! Especially when the judge helped her the 1st time. She said herself she messed up by missing her date.
Had she have gone, she could have shown all the payments she had made, and that she was only $900 behind. Since she stated at the time of eviction she was willing to pay that $900 she should have taken it as a check to Court and paid it that day. That Moratorium is being denied by many Judges, but if she would have shown the Judge she made payments etc. she might have gotten another chance.
In America, you have to be really rich or really poor to get help. Middle class aka the working poor get nothing! We always get stuck fixing the economy by paying higher taxes on EVERYTHING!
What about people that are paying rent?. And some Slum Landlords are taking advantage of people by rising rents on properties that they don't fix and in deplorable conditions and if you don't pay the rent the landlord tosses you out on the streets, where's the help for the people that's paying rent?..
She cut her hours at work knowing she got to pay the rent. I dont know if she still has a job but she needs to go back to work. A lot of people are in her same position but have to go to work. Front line workers in these area that have to go to work. She chose not to... because of covid 19 the rental office where she was evicted should not be able to put that on her history, THAT part is f up. She did not go to court to explain to the judge what was going on so that part is messed up as well. She put herself in this position. Truck drivers, nurses, doctors, teachers they cant take a day off just like her but she decided not to work. Forgot to add if you are getting evicted or have to move and have no forwarding address open a post office box because where are you going to get your mail. IF you want to lower your hours in a possible dangerous occupation you need another job like UBER EATS, web sale, day care on the side to make up for the loss income clearly she did not think this through. Never depend on the government for anything or you will be coming up short.

Samantha had a good paying essential job, she is also young and she still decides to take family leave knowing her pay would be less. On the other hand the older lady cleaning houses had no choice, there was no work for her. It's hard not to judge. Im an essential worker and have been very grateful that I can still work. I also take precautions and do not socialize with others outside of my home for any reason. I think ahead because I am a single mother and also have a mother who is a senior.
The CDC moratorium on evictions is completely unfair to landlords. It's no different than forcing a restaurant to feed people but not require them pay. Or forcing an airline to fly people for free. Or forcing car dealers to stop repossessions. Landlords have tremendous expenses: taxes, mortgage, licenses, HOA dues, maintenance, management fees, insurance, other vacancies, etc. Assume you have a property where rent is $1000/mo. Imagine the expenses are probably $800/mo. So if a renter doesn't pay, the landlord still has to pay those expenses. Now multiply that x 2. Or 3. Or 5. How quickly would you go bankrupt supplying housing for someone else + trying to take care of yourself? Now imagine if you relied on rental income for your own income. If the govt wants to stop evictions, then it should be done with help for landlords as well. And it should be done by the vote of the congress, who represent all of us, not but some person in the CDC. The burden of housing in such an emergency should fall on the entire country, not one homeowner. When we had PPP, it came from the Federal Govt borrowing money. With the CDC moratorium, it comes from individuals at unsustainable costs.

Long after the pandemic we will be seeing the unintended consequences of this. These evictions stay on their records for years making it nearly impossible for them to get another place even if they are financially stable
@stryfetc1 the US thrives off capitalism a forgiveness is not likely.
2nd chance financing. They will charge huge fees for all borrowing. This will be a huge money windfall for the banks doing secondary financing. (Bottom feeding)
40 million new secondary borrowers. This will o the en the flood gates for predatory lending, yet again.
If that's the case they need to make a bill that declares any evictions on record during the pandemic null and void and wipe it off their record. In fact it should be done now while their figuring out this next stimulus bill. These people don't have to be homeless they probably just need a cheaper place to stay but they can't because of the record.
If you dnt own the property, (still have payments) you shouldnt be able to rent out the property. We new legislation preventing people from bottom feeding on the poor, including other poor people.
lol, there are other options besides scumwanna be lords and gov Housing. Nice try though. People not being able to afford what they claim to own is the problem. People shouldnt need to occupy "your" property for you to have to pay or you are on borrowed time and looking for handouts and bailouts when stuff like this and 08 happen. But from the financial side, many of these 2nd 3rd home loans are the problem. People juggling to try and make payments. If everyone focused on owning one house, the market wouldnt be inflated so high and the true value of these houses would be seen. But as long as realtors have foreign investors in china and other places the price of housing in cities will be high. Oh, you didnt know American realtors advertising in china for property ownership and rental is a thing. Lol.

THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE TAKING THAT MONEY THEY ARE GIVING AWAY TO OTHER COUNTRIES AND BUILD TENT CITIES FOR THE POOR.
There needs to be a class-action lawsuit. The people vs. the United States of America and include each state in the union. All tenants, landlords, small business owners, contract workers, etc should sign up as the people and then some. It is wrong for the government to shut down the economies of each individual person renting. The landlords as well. How is it legal for a government to shut down the economy and then not do anything to mitigate the consequences of such acts. It is negligent, life-threatening and even a threat to national security when a majority of your country is homeless. If that doesn't raise a red flag and let the people know their government is a failure, I don't know what is.

I've worked in property management for 8 years. These companies will regret these actions in the long run...when they start to bleed. The best thing landlords could and should do right now is to work with long term tenants with strict payment plans In place. The fact that the market is the way it is and there are more more unemployment claims being filed weekly does not guarantee that they will be able to find somebody to replace the tenant therefore losing long term tenancy (which is the goal)which equals lost income for them in the long run. I can bet that within 3 to 4 months most of these companies will have to ignore the fact that there are evictions just to keep tenants or to get new tenants so that they can actually afford to pay their bills. I wouldn't be surprised if evictions are removed from credit scores the same way that student loans are. Not to mention the money that they have to put out to rehab the units once the tenants leave. Considering The Times we are in this is not a normal eviction situation and these companies should be a lot smarter and empathetic. To most not all… because some tenants may just be irregular with payments or not reliable. Those tenants are a risk. But it's worth the risk to see to help a long term standing tenant with a good payment history . It's really sad to see the greed of these companies when there is a way for long term tenants who pay consistently and on time to be worked with.
This is one of the best comments i have read regarding the current eviction crisis in America! Damn right, we need more property management companies that are smarter and more empathetic!
Great insight!
I like your informed perspective. They should have you on a panel to speak about this to LL.
Accurate assessment!! Greed will cause their downfall
I was thinking this too. If a renter has an eviction, and can't rent in the future for however many years, how is that going to help the landlords recover later? This is just sad all the way around. Wow. America is turning into an actual third world country.
The moment you loose your home, you will discover what rights you really have. Homeless doesn't mean your lazy or you don't mean to pay your bills. It literally means you're Homeless. You could literally have a full-time job and simply not have a home to go to.

Yea but you are not hearing the whole story. I would be willing to bet there was a lot of heat between her and the landlord. I would be willing to bet she had a history of being late and being a problem in general. Landlords are not going to kick out good tenants.
Not heartless. She did everything to make sure she was evicted probably thinking the CDC moratorium would block the landlord.
Exactly.
You took leave from a government job? Didn’t show for court? What?
Union rep. told her some of her co- workers tested positive for COVID, that's why she took leave
You hear what you want to hear!
Her union should have some emergency funds for her
It’s sad but I still have to work & we’ve had several employees test positive monthly. I can’t afford not too. A place to stay to me is more important right now. I can forgo lots of necessities till I can get back on track later in the future. 🙏🏻
@@reallyluckygirl1 You rationalize your reason to work, but if you get really sick and the avalanche of problems that comes with being sick 😷 staying home would seem less of the two evils.
I thought they couldn't evict during this time.
They aren’t but like my landlord they are saying my lease was up in Nov and now even after giving the court and them the CDC memorandum I will be evicted Dec 24 with my daughter on Christmas EVE 💔💔
@@lovewhitey2027 Christmas Eve that's 🥶🥶
@@lovewhitey2027 my gosh...i cant imagine what you must be feeling right now, dear. I seriously hope you get help and pray for you and your daughter.
@LoveWhyte WOW
@@lovewhitey2027 you went to court ??
They did her dirty. It’s a damn shame.
Yes they did her very dirty she had paid them already over half the rent actually had the rest of it when they came to come evict her why wouldn't they take the money and let her stay why would they press the eviction this is a crying shame
No they didn't, she should have showed up at the court hearing, she had ample opportunity and warnings, that's not how evictions work, had she went to court, she would have had a case, in this case, I have no sympathy, she was trying to game the system. She didn't even have a legit reason to stop working, she has an essential job, mail will run forever, no matter what.
She should have taken extra precautions and kept working full time. The union aint payin her bills or giving her shelter.
@@derrickstewart9485 Right. If she actually had the money or knew she would have it in the next couple of days the judge probably would have sided with her. She had already paid 1500.00 by her court date. She wasn’t trying to pay or she wouldn’t have missed that court date.
And I also don’t think “I didn’t know” is a good enough excuse. When you’re in a situation like that you should be calling every where you can to find help. I know because I was in this situation years ago. If you miss eviction court you automatically lose and the owner no longer has to work with you.
I am a landlord, in situations like this no one wins. I work with my tenants during these hard times but of course rent still has to be paid. Sadly the situation will only get worst.
If the government bailed out the banks & big corporations in , 2008 they can help these renters stay in there homes!!!!!! These politicians DNT care about hard working people!!!!!!!!!
I totally agree!!
920 dollars a month for rent- that is more than what I paid in a mortgage
Right my mortgage is only 525 a year
That’s cheap rent anymore..Im in the Pacific Northwest and our rent just went up to $1125 (for a 500 SF, circa 1959 built apartment). You can’t FIND a house to buy with a price tag low enough to allow for a mortgage *under* $1800-$2000/month. It’s truly not doable anymore around here.
I pay $1150/month in Iowa
@@melissas6376 Yep...I feel your pain ☹️
I pay $1,200 for a $600 worth apt.😫
The first woman took time off thinking that she doesn't have to pay the rent due CDC regulations. She did this to herself. Many others in this situation were either laid off or can't find jobs. I don't feel for the first lady.
I noticed the same thing, she cut back her hours on her own, she was not compromised or had a compromised person living in her home. I think she took advantage of the situation and thought she could use it to get out of work and sit at home a little. I feel sorry for her daughter and the sister that took them in, now all cramped in a small condo/apartment.
I'm sorry but her job wasn't shut down, she didn't communicate with her landlord, she hasn't been trying to stay up.todate with whats going on and she MISSED HER COURT DATE. if you are a single mother with 2 kids, you go to work until you can't, you sacrifice whatever you have to, so that your kids are okay. I am a mother of an 18 month old, I haven't bought anything for myself aside from clothing(nothing cost more than $20) since 2 years before my daughter was born so I could save money, I always drive an older car so I don't have a payment and I save as much as I can. More people need to think this way, instead of since u have the money on your pocket to spend it on $200 uggs, and $100/mo on nails and another $200 on getting your hair done, it adds up, and you could have had a month of rent saved by just spending less for 3 months. Everyone always says, "I never thought it would happen to me" or depend on the Government, its just such a bad way to think, you will be on your own when u need help the most.
I agree in most of what your saying, but clearly she isn't rocking uggs, and her hair piece isn't worth $200.00 nor nails. It seems as if your stereotyping home chick which is pretty normal I guess.
She was giving the landlord payments & provided the Judge proof. Some landlords are not willing to comply with an arrangement
Do you want a cookie?
@@bohemianchic638 😆
...Many of us homeowners are also facing foreclosure and homelessness.
How? The mortgage forbearance protects homeowners, and they just extended the forbearance another year.
@@derrickstewart9485 eviction moratorium is free money for a tenant. But forbearance is not free money for an owner. That money has to be paid back, likely in a lump sum once the forbearance period is up. If you don’t have it, you can get a foreclosure.
I know many that have gotten loan modifications
@@keithsalazar7332 a loan modification means owners have to pay missed 💰 back. Sometimes w penalties.
@@badgyalforward4469 not true at all. You need to read it carefully.
So I know we are in the middle of a pandemic and crisis, but this person chose not to go to work and take the family leave act to receive a 3rd less of her regular paycheck. She didn't say that her or her daughters had any underlying conditions that would put them at risk if she did catch Covid. On the flip side, if she was taking precautions to work, social distance, wear a mask and sanitize her hands, she would have been ok, even if her co workers did have the virus. I'm sorry, it sounds like she took advantage of an opportunity to not work. She didn't loose her job, she had an essential job. If there was some health risk, I could understand the reason for not working. The rest of her story, doesn't add up, how do you not know you are being evicted until 15 minutes before you had to move out. I'm sure there was a notice put on her door, and then she didn't show up for the court date. How do you not show up for a court date that is about you being evicted? I'm sure after that, there was a notice to quit placed on the door, so don't act like you didn't know the date they were coming. I can't have sympathy for someone that ignored all the warnings and as a last straw didn't go to court. On top of that she say she had the money to pay the rent, so why didn't you pay the rent if you had the money? She sounds like someone that was trying to game the system and it cost her the roof over her head.
Yup. She made a lot of bad decisions. She created this nightmare for her family.
I wonder if the landlords understand that if everyone is too poor to pay to live in your properties, you still won't be able to make your payments
Many of them are so lowdown they would let property sit empty rather working with renters
Need to put a stop on paying rent until covid is under control. These landlords need to be more lenient and work with the government to solve this.
Ignorant comment. Unless federal government starts: paying property taxes, paying landlords’ mortgages, utility bills, contractor and vendor services, the idea landlords should for some reason have to be the only ones footing the bill is asinine. And if you think the federal government can suddenly start paying those expenses incurred by landlords, you need to relearn how arithmetic works. Try not paying your cell phone bill and see how long the Covid excuse works until your service is disconnected.

Who is going to pay the landlord bills?you do understand your landlord probably has to pay on your home he has mortgage and bills to, what good are they when they lose your home to the bank because your unable to pay your bills their unable to pay their bills, it sucks all the way around it’s no no win situation.
@@pureblood8712 put a stop pay on everything associated with living expenses until covid is resolved. No land fees, no utility fees, nothing. Live free until everything is back to normal. It’s simple. But greed finds a way. Money is loved too much and the value of life has gone down. Open your eyes don’t be fooled.
God bless those housing advocates trying to make a difference . At least someone cares
Do they though? They are encouraging ppl not to pay rent, and using the money they fundraise for the “cause” on for themselves.
We love Caleb and his friend there with him. This is what good will looks like.
We need to stick together and stop letting these people divide.

How the he’ll u miss a hearing on something that important

She probably missed the hearing due to kids, stress and life.
@@Citygal01
😂😂😂😂😂😂
These comments tryna justify why she missed court are pathetic 🤢
Living in a large city isn’t anything like living in a smaller town. I’m so sick of hearing from my family why I still haven’t bought a home. Maybe because I am a single woman living in Austin, TX where gentrification is rampant and even though I have a Masters degree, it’s in the social science field and the pay is crap! Literally, most of your salary goes to rent... Can’t afford to save even if I wanted to.
So true, been asked that so often. Its impossible to save n raise the children alone, while paying rent, living, and emergency expenses. I just keep saying I'm superwoman but I ain't God. Lol
Why go into a social science if money is such a big deal to you?
Buy some land and build a Cabin
If only you look at my life and tell me that owning a house is not possible I don't have a degree what so ever I am just SIMPLE just stop living like the Jones that all you have to do.
It can be done. It takes planning,short term sacrifice and a little discipline. Working with a professional that knows about every program to get the best loan. I’m a single woman living in Chicago our cost of living is twice and I’m less educated then you and I own.
Missing a court date? Dumb!!! I worked for the Post Office and would never have left despite the risk. The money is very good and plenty of overtime during this crisis! Would stay and take precautions and go to work rather than have my family put out into the streets!!
My Mom got a job with OnlyFans to prevent us from being evicted

The government should stop spending money on wars and foreign aids. Save the money for times like these.
In this case, this eviction was her fault. She took a leave from work when she couldn’t afford to, she watched herself get behind on rent and she missed the hearing that was vital to her keeping her place... so basically she disregarded her own circumstances. They made a ruling to evict her because she wasn’t there.. and now she’s paying for it... how do you need help but ignore the court’s request for you to appear before the judge - which is the only person who can help you🤦🏽♀️ she caused this on herself
Best part is most of these older landlords scored their houses for no more than 50k and have already paid off their mortgages. Yet they raise rents to extreme amount as if they are still paying a 250k mortgage in todays market prices.
Facts!! Most them owe their homes and multiple properties.
So let me get this straight; she intentionally misses her rental payments without letting her landlord know in advance as a heads up/see if they can come to an agreement until they begin filing paperwork against her?
She took family leave reducing her pay by 1/3, NO where in this video reported she intentionally missed.
STOP making up stuff!
I just don’t understand. If she had the money why not pay them? Especially before they send the police to your door
I am not saying all tenants, but the tenant I have on my property are free loader, she refuse to allow me to inter my property, I hired a lawyer to write her a letter, to allow me to inter my own property, I don’t know what to do, she own me $ 10,000 she are a nightmare, this is not all, I am going to see rather my lawyer will talk to a judge to allow me to move on my property
Why is the narrative landlords vs renters? Who's demanding the money from the landlords? Maybe we need to shine the light on the real monsters making people homeless right now.
Thank you to Caleb Cossick for taking the time to give this important, needed information that can help renters during this awful pandemic. God bless everyone who is struggling at this time and may you all be safe.
So you stopped going to work and paying the full rent. And you didnt know you would get evicted 🤦♂️ that would happen to anyone that stops paying rent.
Some people was only making a 100 only enough to eat an pay Electric bill
Some people wasn’t even making a 100 because they had no job
How in the world you don’t go to your court date especially for the place you living in.
I feel for the tenants and I feel for the landlords. The problem is the US, the only first world country, didn’t want to provide monthly payments for citizens and residents to keep the economy running status quo. If this year has taught us anything it is that the government doesn’t care even during a worldwide pandemic. Either you can’t stay here or you can’t live paycheck to paycheck. Oh and try to learn about taxes cuz clearly we aren’t paying it to get help in time of need.
Family with kids should not faces evictions🥺
Wait until the world starts looking like the Night of the Living Dead..when u have all these people being evicted and living in the streets..that means NO ONE WILL BE SAFE..when the people get hungry they will have to eat😵
If you are a respondent in an eviction case, you can ask the Court to seal the case record. Then no 3rd party can get the information and report it to any of the 3 big credit reporting agencies. Also do not tell prospective landlords that you were evicted OR that you were ever homeless. If you are served with notice to vacate or a Summons and Complaint and you're in California, every court has a Self Help Resource Center and we can give you procedural information, blank forms, instructions on filing, fee waiver and referrals to local legal aid.
Turtle boy mitch mcconnell needs to go everyone should sign a petition to have this horrible person removed from senate leader
Landlords have bills as well. Only difference is, now they have your bills and yours. You can't punish someone for making good life choices and having property to rent out. Hopefully this teaches people to live within their means, and to save.
Sounds like she was playing games with her landlord. I think she was trying to take advantage of the situation.
Exactly 💯
Really? I came to the exact OPPOSITE conclusion.
@@j.bennette3390 Put yourself in the landlord's shoes. Is she has some money to pay, you will work with her. She probably promised to pay on a certain day and kept delaying it. Kicking a tenant out is a lot of work and very stressful. It's the last resort. I know people in my life like her who promised to pay but there is always an excuse in the last minute. Eventually, they don't pay and you give up. That's their strategy. Think about it.
I agree
I hate to say it and it backfired
I work for the government and while some people did leave and get paid time off as special leave due to covid i continued to go in to work everyday until they told me I could work remotely. If you are an overall healthy person I don't believe covid is a huge threat but losing your income and home-now thats a way bigger threat.
Don't let the fear mongering make you lose your practical senses. If you can continue working do so.
If you are out of work-look for work. There are still jobs out there
So let me see if I understand..
First, she VOLUNTARILY left her job, failed to appear @ hearing for the eviction process, then withheld the funds to prevent her eviction, until the day of the eviction? I mean she literally stated, "I can get a money order to cover the arrears, if you give me a few minutes..?"
This woman is NO victim. She's a FooL!! Priorities!!!
I feel for her kids. They have a mother who makes BAD decisions. She's making their lives so much tougher than it needs to be.
Why would she miss her court date
That was stupid
I think stupid decisions are her thing. If she stayed fulltime, like most scared essential workers, none of this would have happened to her.
....so rental communities would rather have vacant units? Unemployment rates indicate that the probability of vacant units being occupied by new tenants is low, so why not give long term unproblematic tenants a break? Management companies can write off these losses.
Yes. Vacant unit is better than 1 year of non payment
Come here where the median for a one bed for the entire metro area is 2150 and the min wage is 13$/hour. Even at 15$/hour at 40 hours a week you make 2400$ a month in income, how do do you pay 2100? Only 5% of households have a Section 8 voucher here and the waitlists have been closed for years. Then snark about people not paying their rent.
Absolutely 💯 right on!!
Our country has failed us...
She spent money she could of just saved at the end of the day... they knew she would get evicted
She probably thought the government was gone to bail her out she should have stayed on her postal job
Women's privilege
@@lilliansanders5470 Better yet, she should have went to court.
SO after the moratorium, a big lump sum is going to be due. How many people are actually going to come up with the big lump sum? I say less than 10%. Maybe less than 5%. People love free stuff.
I understand that the CDC may have put a halt on evictions but they're not the government and she put Faith in something that doesn't run anything
You have to show up to court date guys !!! No matter what it buys you time.
I agree. Not sure why she didn't because she has a car. Atleast she has a sister willing to take her in. Many people are in shelters, sleeping in cars or outside in the cold.
I wish I was a multi millionaire right now. If I was, I would pay as many people's rent as I could bare. But first, as a millionaire, I would DEMAND a meeting with our Government officials to advocate for the " working poor" and To reword the halt on evictions that would not Have ANY loop holes for landlords to slither through!!
God Bless everyone.
This makes me so sad.
Bless your heart. If only you were rich, you could help. But you're pretty worthless instead.
This is a global crisis.
This is so sad.
I live in Florida and people have been evicted in my area. Even though its supposed to go into effect on Dec. 31, they have been kicking families out since August - September.
Expiring leases are another form of evictions.
Same here
The banking sector is responsible for the moratorium..destroying property owners financially to enable the banks to prey on them and take over ownership..landlords cannot evict tenants but the banks do have that power..
everybody getting evicted should refuse to leave the property and get arrested. What do you think will happen when millions of people get arrested and put in jail. do you think they can keep these millions of people in jail. What do you think people will say when the jails have no room for rapist or murderers.
Landlords should not have sky high prices on rent food is expensive
Nobody is saying punishing landlords, but if no tenant can lease property,why not work with the tenants making the payments and halting all the court fees and late fees on...Be real majority of the tenants are renting properties bought 3-4 times over and taxes are semi-annual and the local government often works out a deal with the property owner
Yes!!!💯
Sad. They did her dirty, however she should've made sure she went to court!!!! You have to go to court! Especially when the judge helped her the 1st time. She said herself she messed up by missing her date.
Had she have gone, she could have shown all the payments she had made, and that she was only $900 behind. Since she stated at the time of eviction she was willing to pay that $900 she should have taken it as a check to Court and paid it that day. That Moratorium is being denied by many Judges, but if she would have shown the Judge she made payments etc. she might have gotten another chance.
In America, you have to be really rich or really poor to get help. Middle class aka the working poor get nothing! We always get stuck fixing the economy by paying higher taxes on EVERYTHING!
Remember all them homeless people under brige holding sign for food I never thought I be sleeping in a ⛺ tent with them.i got a wake up call

Damm bro 🥶
What about people that are paying rent?. And some Slum Landlords are taking advantage of people by rising rents on properties that they don't fix and in deplorable conditions and if you don't pay the rent the landlord tosses you out on the streets, where's the help for the people that's paying rent?..
She cut her hours at work knowing she got to pay the rent. I dont know if she still has a job but she needs to go back to work. A lot of people are in her same position but have to go to work. Front line workers in these area that have to go to work. She chose not to... because of covid 19 the rental office where she was evicted should not be able to put that on her history, THAT part is f up. She did not go to court to explain to the judge what was going on so that part is messed up as well. She put herself in this position. Truck drivers, nurses, doctors, teachers they cant take a day off just like her but she decided not to work. Forgot to add if you are getting evicted or have to move and have no forwarding address open a post office box because where are you going to get your mail. IF you want to lower your hours in a possible dangerous occupation you need another job like UBER EATS, web sale, day care on the side to make up for the loss income clearly she did not think this through. Never depend on the government for anything or you will be coming up short.

@@Wellington205i or maybe you don’t know the whole story. Did you every think if she has kids maybe the kids were being home school and working less hours works for the children. You would like a man who just hate black women. Get a life, only group of men that make women their punching bag.
Samantha had a good paying essential job, she is also young and she still decides to take family leave knowing her pay would be less. On the other hand the older lady cleaning houses had no choice, there was no work for her. It's hard not to judge. Im an essential worker and have been very grateful that I can still work. I also take precautions and do not socialize with others outside of my home for any reason. I think ahead because I am a single mother and also have a mother who is a senior.
Prayers for these families
The CDC moratorium on evictions is completely unfair to landlords. It's no different than forcing a restaurant to feed people but not require them pay. Or forcing an airline to fly people for free. Or forcing car dealers to stop repossessions. Landlords have tremendous expenses: taxes, mortgage, licenses, HOA dues, maintenance, management fees, insurance, other vacancies, etc. Assume you have a property where rent is $1000/mo. Imagine the expenses are probably $800/mo. So if a renter doesn't pay, the landlord still has to pay those expenses. Now multiply that x 2. Or 3. Or 5. How quickly would you go bankrupt supplying housing for someone else + trying to take care of yourself? Now imagine if you relied on rental income for your own income.
If the govt wants to stop evictions, then it should be done with help for landlords as well. And it should be done by the vote of the congress, who represent all of us, not but some person in the CDC. The burden of housing in such an emergency should fall on the entire country, not one homeowner. When we had PPP, it came from the Federal Govt borrowing money. With the CDC moratorium, it comes from individuals at unsustainable costs.
