So funny. Imagine... No pay rent = OUT. Who’d a thunk?!
WaPo will be feeling betrayed and bewildered once again as tgey learn that evicting tenants who dont pay rent is considered good. It’s kind of what the 2016 election was all about
Last week trump sent out an email inquiry - what is the highest priority on trump supporters’ agenda
A few days later he’s zeroing in on DHS for not securing the border
Get a clue everyone.
“landlord-friendly laws”
True! They are commonsense laws that work well. Not many landlords will evict a good tenant.
The higher percentage of dead beat renters the lower the cash flow and lower sales price
Unfortunately, dead beat renters are difficult and expensive to evict so many landlords are forced to accept a significant loss by non rent paying tenants
As soon as the rest of the tenants see others not paying they figure they can get away with it too. Instant ghettoification of the apartment building is the result is crime, vandalism, decay, drugs, booze and this start of a destructive downward spiral former the property and neighborhood in general
Smaller or cash strapped owners can get desperate to dump the properties at under valued prices when they do not have the assets to evict and want to get out while there is still some value in the property
Looks like Hannity is shrewdly buying up distressed properties like these and rehabilitation and gentrifying them
Does the Washington Post still have those newspaper boxes where you pay for one paper but can take the whole stack? Do they consider it theft when people do that?
Does the Washington Post even believe in ownership or private property ? American Thinker strikes out at WAPOO with its puny fist without even raising that question when repeating its diatribe against Hannity .
Why, da noive o’ dat guy!
So Jeff Bezos who owns the Post would not mind these same people ordering his Amazon merchandise with rubber checks.
A friend and I once owned a ghetto rental house in Detroit. We had to evict a tenant for non-payment of rent. We were granted a court order and gave him a few weeks longer than the courts required.
We had a court appointed bailiff to oversee the actual eviction. I was telling some people at church about the day our tenant moved. He wasn’t even home to help. His neighbors stole everything we removed from the house.
A soft hearted girl at church told me that I was mean and unchristian for throwing out his stuff.
I disagreed. I told her that we followed the law, got a court order and he was found guilty of stealing from us.
He was a thief and no longer a tenant.
The nerve of that guy, not allowing people to live rent free in one of his properties.
So there are more people evicted than the state average. That means there are also more people not paying rent than the state average. When a building is in foreclosure or legal limbo of some kind there is often a lot of legal action that is delayed. I assume these buildings were bought by Hannity and as they were being repaired and changed ownership, I assume he starts to rent to people who actually pay.
My Wife is a RE Broker/Owner.
She sold a triplex to a client...
She checked in with the client a year later to see how things were going.
Apt A had a drug dealer (highly suspected) in it. No rent issues. No problems. Paid cash.
Apt B had a stripper in it. No rent issues. No problems. Paid cash.
Apt C had a school Principal. Always late with rent. Always full of surly ‘landlord sucks’ crap.
Two weeks seems fair if allowed by law...
Once you take over a business and begin enforcing rules, the customers (in this case tenants) soon realize that the owner means business.
In the case of evictions, the word gets around and habitual layabouts who move from apt to apt while working the system find that they can find easier landlords to prey upon.
Sean Hannity is the reason there are so many homeless these days!!
Some of the evicted tenants were probably not white. Or straight. That isn’t fair to evict people of color and gays along with the others.
