@occamsrazor5376 No but the more money they have the more greedy they are! Don’t be so naive, most Americans are uneducated and don’t care about their fellow man. The days of caring for your fellow human being are gone! This is America now.
Americans do that to each other all the time. Medical problems, give me your house. No food , no stamps for you, education is too expensive so sad for you, poverty. We see it as the American way.
@@Jaysfan7493Really, we lost everything in this fire a house gone through generations, 176 years old, neighborhood gone, and our town is gone. Did President Biden give any demands to the people of North Dakota when families lost everything? Nope, nothing, and it’s a Red State, those who lost homes received over $140,000 to rebuild their homes, but Humpty Dumpty and his followers were spreading so much disinformation, stating, if they toke the money, their homes would belong to Democrats, and people believed that it was true. Did President Biden come with any demands, change in laws, policies?, nothing. Now Humpty Dumpty is threatening to hold back FEMA aid from California. We have to change our policies and agree to increase the debt ceiling so his millionaire, billionaire and corporations will receive the lowing of tax cuts. He’s on only President in History who has come with demands before he will help California. It’s called……BLACKMAIL. It’s also a crime. He will be the first President in History who becomes President as a convicted felon.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Jaysfan7493 You see it as the American way? It is only a small percentage of greedy evil people in this country; most Americans are giving and caring. STOP putting a group of people into a box and the labeling the box. That is BIGOTRY and it is disgusting. And greedy evil people live in all countries.
Same from Ventura County, I'm seeing more LA people taking refuge here. Hopefully they can get a better deal, at those prices they can afford Santa Barbara.
We're taking care of each other locally, I know people who are opening up their homes and wallets to help. We're having food and disaster relief drives (gathering things locally for people hunkered down at the Rose Bowl like kerosene heaters....it's been in the 30's lately) we have also sent firefighters, search & rescue, and search dogs from our county. It's your neighbors who will help you through when the govt and media have forgotten you and gone home. I have survived 3 disasters in the past 5 yr, btw (1 wildfire & 2 flood/landslides) we've got your back LA.....we were there with Woolsey, we will be there again. 💜

Consider how many properties are owned by corporations whose sole concern is profit. They have the money to outbid those trying to buy a starter home. It is a serious cause of unaffordable homes and rental price gouging.
Billionaires bought houses out from under regular families by making all cash offers. Is this who is uping rest? Who are these landlords without souls? They need their names and faces posted everywhere.
My prayers go to the people in california.. I was born there.. I live there for a long time.. I am very familiar with the areas that burned.. I am in shock myself... My prayers many prayers... And the Price Gougers.. Need to seriously pay penalties to the extent of the law
I lived in California in the 60s, 70s and part of the 80s. I know a lot of these places also. I lived in Glendora and have been missing my home so much lately. It’s sad to see this tragic event destroying people’s lives 😢
Years ago our house burned down and the only thing left was our really nice wood burning stove. We came back the next day and it had been stolen. No one is lower than someone who would steal from people who lost almost everything.
“Renoviction” is a term we hear more often these days as demand for housing has skyrocketed. It’s an opportunity for some landlords to hike rents and evict tenants who can’t pay, using the excuse of renovation or repairs as the reason for increased rents. The “perfect storm” for abuse of the system has arrived in LA.
It's sad that tragedies like this occur. It's things like this that should unite North America (Canada, US and Mexico) as one instead of us being divided as we are through economic threats from an egomaniacal duo of incoming president Muskrat and FLOTUS Donnie!!!!
I live in Victoria, Australia. We are probably the only place on earth that is as bushfire explosive as California. About six or seven years ago, the state government built emergency accommodation facilities for cases exactly like this. They were ridiculed for using it during the pandemic but, in fact, that what it was intended for. But in the case of major fires, we actually have somewhere for people to go.
The government should take their property and rent out to the people who need it. The landlords won't need it for a while they are in jail awaiting trial. Get to them when the courts backlog allows.
This is just criminal pathetic disgusting!!! What kind of person price gauges victims!!! They make me sick! And the poor Governor having to deal with all the lies. He’s doing an excellent job. Even under what I’m sure is extreme stress he is handling this incredible and shame on people putting conditions on the tragedy or gauging or just lying. Shameful
Meidas please get this message out... California Attorney General Rob Bonta hosted a press conference to provide an update on the Department of Justice’s efforts to tackle price gouging in the wake of the Los Angeles wildfires. Good information.
I live in northern CA with a lot of fires destroying towns up here and we see this EVERY time. Yes, it's on our local news but it doesn't make it to Sacramento or the mainstream media. So, this happens to us up here all the time, you just don't hear about it.
There is a smiliar spread sheet on Reddit for business that charge cover fees and other type of ricuolous fees in LA. Glad to see this sheet is being used for good!
The same exact thing happened in Northern California in 2017 where I live after the Tubbs fire that destroyed over 1,500 homes and displaced thousands of people. The predatory rental hikes have gone up in the past week in Northern California as well. It's criminal.😢
Thank you for putting this out. I have so many friends in LA still, so I’ve been keeping up with all that’s going on. I heard about the price gouging 3-4 days ago ? (It’s all a blur right now), and I was disgusted. So, thank you for using your voice and platform to help bring more light to this.
What about the people responsible for all this, or the people who will profit from that barren lot , i bet theyll offer pennies to people, never mind the insurance companies,
Well some of you are going to think I’m nuts, or just naive, but landlords usually charge a bit more than property is worth anyhow. Sooo why can’t they have a heart and give these poor people a break. What they should do is to cut the rent for them as much as possible. Say for at least six months and give them time to get their homes started with repairs. Or if they can’t ever go back, time to regroup; get new jobs if their job was destroyed, etc. Not only would they be helping hurting people, it would make them future friends and good karma. I wish I had the funds to help people, because this is so wrong. Bless them all, and I hope those who have the ability to help them will.
Such a disgusting side of some humans… this experience we are going through here in California will be forever burned into our souls. Look for the helpers as we rebuild our communities 🙏🏽💝
I cant wait to hear Trumps argument for why landlords should be able to gouge in disaster times. 😂 "if a tsunami wipes out a boat harbor, where will a single working mother of 3 going to park her yacht? Gotta park it somewhere. Demand goes up so rent goes up. Same thing." -Love your favorite president ME.
🐢 Price/rent gouging in an emergency is despicable, especially considering that the landlord doesn't need to earn more money as the amount paid before was enough then. Everybody for himself will be all of our doom (including the 'Rich'), sorry to break it to y'all.
As always, landlords can’t resist taking advantage of people misery. And they wonder why they are so hated.
Could you not be a landlord?

Pretty much. But this has always happen in every tragedy.
Landlords raising rents during a disaster is something trump will only admire. He would do exactly the same.
That's for damn sure.

Really
He's gonna raise the rates at his Washington hotel because landlords are raising them in California.

Yup. And all these closed insurance cases. Each one could be a different persons home lost.
There are too many part time / AirB&B owners period. Private Equity already owns LA and has for many years.
