Landlords will get out the apt business then. And these folks can pound sand or live in a homeless shelter.
Which is precisely what the government wants. They want to be the sole "landlord."
No. But big city landlords who voted for obummer will get what they deserve.
Since I think this will be a bigger issue in the cities that obummer did so well in, I wish the landlord and the tenants good luck.
So HUD says blacks are disproportionately criminal; thanks for the candor!
This is reminiscent of the policies forcing banks to lend in bad areas to non-creditworthy borrowers (again, disproportionately minority); when they defaulted on the loans the same government accused the banks of fleecing the same minorities. Landlords who bow to this pressure and rent to criminals will be sued by their other tenants when the criminals prey on them; the landlords will lose because they didn’t do their due diligence in screening prospective tenants...
I was a landlord (or lessor) for ten years.
Ten years was enough.
And you’re right: like the job-killing ‘Affordable care’ act (Hey, they named it), this will reduce the number of ‘affordable’ rentals.
Obama damages everything he touches.
Just put a clause in the lease requiring that the lessee be legally able to possess a firearm.
The government will buy those properties and become the landlord. You can thank the man from Canada after the Congress passes it, the President signss the bill, and the Supreme Court approves it 7-2.
