I got lucky with getting my lease violating-non-rent paying tenant. I went up there and let him know I wasn’t leaving. He got his cell phone out & started calling his buddy with a truck. THANK GOD!
Since I had a separate page making it clear I had total access during renovations...he was stuck.
Wow. No mater the circumstances of the individuals locked out, what the management of that complex did was cold.
Gov’t orders a shut down then orders property owners to bear the financial burden that any idiot could have seen flowing from it. Thats a nice gig, sitting above everyone and giving any damned order you please. How the hell is this fair. Gov’t shifts the blame for its stupid policy on to landlords and God knows who else, making THEM the bad guy.
Government cannot set aside contracts just because they mumble “State of Emergency”.
Think there is wayyyy more to this Story
so they can’t be evicted....they don’t pay rent...good luck getting the landlord to come fix something..
Governor Abbott issued a statewide order prohibiting evictions.
I’m doubting this TV gerbalsim story for the time being. Will see what local info I can find.
Who’s right or wrong in this story aside, I have a rhetorical question. Does no one set money aside and or have savings for an emergency such as this? Everybody lives paycheck to paycheck nowadays? Ok that’s two questions but still....it hasn’t been that long yet and people already can’t make ends meet. I could see it if we were a few more months in.
Food shortages are coming.
On the plus side, many of those new years diet resolutions will be coming true soon . folks will be needing new clothes too.
We had some incidents where school kid had went through the line, got to the cashier and were told their accounts were ‘closed’ and the food was dumped right in front of the kid.
I realize that is all they could do ‘legally’ as it couldn’t be put back but the practice was stopped quickly and now ‘volunteers’ show up at the schools and bring accounts up to date.
If landlords can’t evict are they still required to provide maintenance?
Keep pushing people and people will start pushing the SHTF.
I’m wondering if any landlords will file a lawsuit re lost rent...if state intercedes seems like they should be forced to compensate
Did Mnuchin consider landlord comp in the small business relief bill?
Were these tenants already late on their payments or did they default before all of this happened?
Lots of questions.
