I find the owner more at fault because after two months, I would have started kicking them out. Why wait so long? Of course coincidentially when something goes wrong as it has with Bush right now, the guy must go to the media and should "Unfair". I am so suspect of people like that. I am not saying Bush was right, but I still find the owner has some sort of agenda.
I'm no renter. But from what I've seen and heard, depending on local laws, kicking someone out could take up to a year. All the while, the perps CONTINUE to live for free. Ugly stuff...
Because he wanted leverage over Bush to make him sign as an agent. It was extortion and blackmail.
Because he'll probably sell the house for an extra 250k for having Reggie Bush living there as part of the history of that home. Even if he only got a little off of Bush living there he still gets the extra 60k when he sells the house.
Of course if this landlord succeeds in making Bush unmarketable, then not only has he nobody to collect from, but he won't get the bump off the history of the house as well.
