I saw a lady in my building evicted. This was years ago, in Seattle. They put all her things out in the driveway, in the rain. It was one of the saddest things I've ever seen.
The problem isn’t the Senate! The problem is Mitch McConnell and other Republican senators! The House has had a relief bill for Americans for months and McConnell won’t even bring it to a vote in the Senate!
The Banks won't be evicted, the politicians won't be evicted, so why should the average person be evicted? During a global catastrophe, money shouldn't mean a thing. People need help.
What I don't see in this type of comment is a final, "And I am okay with my taxes increasing significantly in the coming years to pay for this help for my fellow citizens." Because ultimately we all pay for it. For giggles, I download the 55k plus page Federal budget every year and do word searches. It would be great if all of did that and reviewed it. Millions go out quietly to all sorts of questionable expenses. We could better fund all sorts of things by being on top of government spending.
@Kenneth Stark - Free market, dog-eat-dog capitalism is why not. Even now there are Republican senators who are against helping Americans because of their dogmatic belief in Ayn Rand or some such economic crank.
Make us weak so we can be invaded by China? No thanks, how bout all those politicians keeping you from your job give you their income? Maybe Obama can sell his mansion to pay for people’s rent? Maybe Biden will donate his salary like Trump did?

For a country whose conservative politicians claim to be Christian they seem to quickly forget : 35 "For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. 36 I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’ 37 “Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? 39 When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters,[a] you were doing it to me."

Sorry but this country definitely wasn't built on that just like how they killed hung burned the black people in front of whole towns filled with white people and claim to do this in the name of Christianity!
I've been extremely lucky to be able to pay my rent every month during this time, early even, and my landlord still threatened to evict me when I asked them to stop doing in-person showings in my apartment (I live in a property that's up for sale). It really can happen to anyone (edit: though, of course, some are more vulnerable than others).
Nope not me. Happen to any of you that don’t handle your finances and use common sense. Been there done that during double recession in early 80s and seen things happened since. Most ignored it but I didn’t. I have no issues at all during this Covid crisis. Heck I just retired 15 years early. I even have rentals with no issues but I paid cash fir them and no back or government control. I doubt anyone will laugh at me for avoiding leverage now. I can just keep them empty with no on issue.
Well, that's stupid. Just because the banks can lobby politicians and corrupt the capitalistic system; doesn't mean that people making no effort to stop their own evictions should corruptly take money from everyone else to pay off their rent debts. We will all pay the price for the coming hyperinflation.
Our neighbor was not a legal resident of the US. His brother died and he lost his home because he was unable to pay all his rent alone. Our neighbors came together to feed him and found him a room to rent with someone who needed help paying their rent. People are forced to take risks with their health to just try to live. People taking care of people.
I had proposed a year-long no rent or house notes due. You would think someone would do that but those old people in our Government who have been on OUR dime for too long need to do something. The middle class is about extinct. The rich get richer and the poor homeless. Corporations get money and the people do not. They lose their jobs, though. Look at the airlines! They were to keep the middle seat vacant. (Like THAT will help, but...) And they took money and still laid off thousands. Wrong. Wrong. WRONG! We need to look out for our fellow Americans! Too bad trump doesn't nor his cronies in D.C. I pray he is held accountable for ALL his crimes and how he killed so many during this pandemic.
Thats how it worked in my country. Renters didnt have to pay rent, landlords didn't have to pay their mortgage and the banks were told to suck it up. No one got evicted.
In France nobody can be evicted from November to March. It’s not a perfect solution but still a little better than throwing people out of their homes in the middle of winter.
@Lynn Pierce, More FAKE NEWS from CBS, The Clown Broadcasting Company, the lady does not want anything from, but freedom, but white privilege', white supremacy, haters' like you , will never help her.
Being homeless is one of my all-time greatest fears, In times like these you not only realize what jobs can survive both a pandemic and recession but also the importance of having true friends and a supportive family because I literally only recently got a well paying job after 7 months of sitting at home unemployed thanks to a friend.
Being a "homeless" person myself for 5 years, I can understand the fear, anger and denial of a community of people who have the fortune enough to have shelter. But this "problem" is NOT going to go away and our elected officials on Capitol Hill are in no way, looking out for our greater good. You can pray all you want, but change is a MUST!!!
Maybe that's what it takes for real housing reform for the 1/3 of American households who are renters, like: 🔥-actual national, transparent, easily accessible slumlord/bad actor database (nope, Yelp ain't cutting it, though when people are HONEST on there it can literally save lives, it's actually very messed up that we can get more information about a vacant hotel room than about a vacant apartment than about a given apartment's management and about an apartment might be vacant --like for example, maybe tremendous noise conditions that they should be required to disclose instead of just taking people's money and then making money on the flip after every time somebody moves out over something that they fail to disclose or fail to take responsibility for or fix/address--A LOT of landlords make more turnung over a unit every 6 months and keeping deposits (see below) than actually doing repairs rent pays for, i.e., THEIR JOBS. 🔥-WE NEED actual rules and regulations on who becomes a landlord and maybe training on "the job" of landlording if we insist it's a job (not every Joe with extra space should be a landlord, discrimination and refusal to rent based on income-- which is ILLEGAL-- is rampant. Please flag ads discriminating against pensions and Disability income by using coded langauge like "must have 9-5 job," "must be employed outside the home"--IF YOUR INCOME IS GREATER THAN THE RENT, THEY MYST TAKE IT, NO MATTER ITS SOURCE, AND REFUSAL TO TAKE IT IS ILLEGAL, one of the FEW renters protections that apply IN ALL 50 STATES, PS WE NEED MORE WRITTEN LAWS PROTECTING RENTERS) 🔥-WE NEED way more, and more adequately funded landlord/tenant courts (SLUMLORDS ABUSE THEIR TENANTS BECAUSE THEY KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO SUE--more disputes would put SLUMLORDS rightfully out of "business")--🔥 Turns out you can't have it both ways, landlords, that if you actually want to be seen as "having a job" and "running a business" you need to actually have to follow the part of the LEASE -- that's actually a CONTRACT-- where it says that you actually have to provide a service, not just take people's money, that you actually have to keep things in good repair and actually maintain them... and that's going to cost some of the money that you would ordinarily call "profit" (HINT: SHELTER IS A RIGHT YOU SHOULDN'T FEEL GREAT ABOUT DRIVING UP THE COSTS OF FOR YOUR PERSONAL PROFITMAKING) but if you actually want to keep going with this that it's actually "a job" and actually "a business," well, those are the parameters of "a job" and "a business"🤔🤔🤔 -🔥WE NEED national laws governing minimum yearly repairs (INSTEAD OF THE STATUS QUO OF ALL LAWS BEING PRO-LANDLORD AND ANTI-THE PEOPLE PAYING THE LANDLORD'S SALARY) 🔥-WE NEED RIGHT NOW security deposit and minimum income requirement reform (it is exclusionary and a barrier, CLASSIST AND RACIST, to require thousands of dollars UP FRONT just to obtain shelter. Where is it written that it MUST be an up-front lump sum rather than collected in installments with rent?) AND HOW MANY X/TIMES THE RENT IS REALLY ENOUGH FOR TENANCY AND WHAT'S EXCLUSIONARY CLASSISM/SEGREGATION BY A SOFTER NAME? 🔥BTW, landlords can always sue for "actual" damage, SO STOP DEFENDING DEPOSITS THAT ARE HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO OBTAIN SHELTER (AND WHICH ARE HARDLY EVER REFUNDED IN FULL AND GOOD LUCK EVER SEEING THAT MONEY AGAIN DUE TO OVERWHELMED AND ANTI-TWNANT COURTS). 🔥EXCESSIVE DEPOSITS AND INCOME REQUIREMENTS FOR TENANCY CONTRIBUTE TO DEBT SLAVERY AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE TO MOVE OUT OF BAD, POORLY REPAIRED, AND UNSAFE HOUSING. Most adult people in places actually in good repair don't go around "damaging" places. Homelesness is a HOUSING AFFORDABILITY problem, not a choice! See our Renting is Broken highlights on Instagram: youshouldbeangry2020 and demand change from your local, federal, state officials! CALIFORNIA voted against rent control in a pandemic. Be better than Califonia! 🔥BAD HOUSING RUINS LIVES! 🔥HOMELESSNESS RUINS LIVES! 🔥EVICTIONS SHOULD BE BANNED PERMANENTLY! 🔥SHELTER IS A HUMAN RIGHT! 🔥ALL OF THIS SHOULD BE UNIVERSALLY AGREED UPON COMMON SENSE! 🔥SORRY, IF YOU WANT TO CASH IN ON THE HUMAN NEED AND RIGHT TO SHELTER, YOU'D BETTER PROVIDE TIMELY REPAIRS AND APPRECIATE STABLE TENANTS INSTEAD OF RAISING OUR RENT EVERY YEAR!

I just realized this me being in florida but this happening in the winter. Best case scenario 10's of thousands to a few hundred thousand people are going to freeze to death in the northern states
My husband is underweight. His manager asked him when he would like to come into work every day. We are both around 60 years old. I have asthma too. His company is not hurting. There is more profit now than ever before. What would happen if many of the people who work for this company died? They might have to interview sick people who would infect more people with Covid-19.
your right. because I saw a video were a tenet was living in a apartment for 20 years has always paid his rent on time and STILL got evicted... they don't care about us
As a landlord, if I had a good tenant for 13 years I would definitely try to work with her to keep her in the property because vacancy is expensive! They were likely wanting to evict to increase rent on a newer tenant.
I am packing up from my home of ten years. But I am lucky - I have the help of family. I am so sorry this is happening to them. I hope the segment brings them help and hope.
I feel your pain 😪 We packed up our house last week also. When I asked for an extension from my landlord, because we are having a hard time finding a new place to live, she said she would give me and my children 3 more days and if I wasn't out by then they would bring the police by to make me leave, turn off the water and electricity and change the locks on the doors. Thankfully we have family to help us out as well so we are at least able to stay in a hotel room for the time being.❤ My prayers are with you and everyone else struggling to make it through these hard times!!!!🙏
I was homeless over 5 years in California, even when i had an income it was impossible to get off the streets, even when i had 20,000 dollars and wanted to pay a year of rent in advance no one would rent to me. If you haven't been there you have no idea how bad it is how bad it gets. I fought tooth and nail to get out of that situation and it was luck that got me out of it. Those in charge have no idea what they are doing by letting this happen.... Sometimes you get to a point you can never come back from.... Our local city gave up on expanding the cold shelters this year i bought 78 polar fleece blankets to hand out to our local homeless... For give them father they know not what they do...
Homeless had 20,000 no one would rent to you? I know california is pisser to live in but I find that hard to believe. Come to ms.that would get you rent for 3 or more years
True. I have a job and do not want to get stuck with a lease due to the frail economy. I've posted ads to rent just a room and bath for 600.00 a month in NJ and cannot find anything. Even called a parish thinking someone may need income to stay in their home and never received a return call. I would even rent a pew to sleep on during the day because I work overnight. Looking more like a future of camping out for millions.
@@hunnybadger442 Could you stay at hotels? Or hotels don't let you pay cash? I don't get it, when you mean homeless you mean living on the streets or without a fixed place? Cause I've seen videos of people saying they are homeless but they live in motels and stuff, so I'm confused what does homeless mean in America?
Freeze mortgages nation wide and evictions wouldn't be happening on large scale. This idea that landlords can afford for people to live for free is stupid.
Thank you for a Connor sense answer. I am a landlord and as a senior citizens depend on it for my bills to be paid. I have a deadbeat that has not paid in six months, still has a job he goes to every day and just bought a new car but uses this ciovid moratorium when I attempted to evict him. No rent plus I pay for the water, trash repairs etc. life is not fair for anyone but he is the lowest of them all because he is a liar and a cheat.
Yes, especially smaller landlords who only did a small number of properties to secure their finances. If we treat the smaller landlords like trash, word will get out and only bigger landlords who can fight the legal system will offer apartments to the public.
The Democrats are just as guilty of this heartlessness, putting people out of work and businesses closing permanently. The Dumbocrats don't give one iota of concern for you or anyone else. All they care about are votes, their jobs and being reelected. Did so much as one of them condemn the violence of Antifa or the uncivilized savages of Black Lives Matter?

"We can do better than that as a country." Absolutely. This will have an effect on entire communities regardless if you are home or property insecure now. Everywhere people are tired of losing, stressed and getting angrier with no one to blame. An opportunity for change is before us, but will we work together, find and take it, or continue the free falling downward spiral we are experiencing?
yup, new homeless camp down the road. But the cops bring coffee and breakfast, the neighborhoods got together to bring needed supplies, the city worked on getting them places to live. Still there, though, and growing. 😟

Better to give relief to tenants so they can pay their rent. Or maybe to do your approach, the government should just give relief to banks when the landlords can't pay their mortgages, and skip over the tenants and the landlords both. Oh, wait. That's what the government does.
As a landlord, we have reduced our rentals to just one, began downsizing last year as rent control laws were gaining momentum. Grocery stores can raise prices of food, but landlords cannot?!? We only had 3 rentals, so we were small potato landlords. But it was our retirement plan for 30 years that we have had to scrap. We couldn't afford to keep paying all the costs without getting rents if they continued to pass rent control and eviction limiting laws. I feel like we dodged a bullet, as we closed our property in January of this year before the pandemic picked up. Thank you for including a small landlord in your story CBS. By the way, we have never evicted a tenant, in 28 years of being landlords.
My uncle used to be a landlord back when times were good and there were few regulations. After a few years, he got out of the business. Because back then it was so easy to afford to buy a house, only the very poorest people rented and so his tenants kept falling behind on their rent.
Because the truth is the world can still function if you let people die off in mass numbers. Its sad, but those on top know they can let some people fall under and enough people are still doing well that the system won't topple completely. The future will show this even moreso.
@@gingernightmare9152 No one cashes in by losing renters, now are we speaking of 3d chess? Sure, we could go even deeper like BLM caused the riots, that were paid for by the billionaires who now can get business property all over the country for 30% less than last year. Also literally no regulations as long as they provide side walks and infrastructure. City impact will not be considered, such as what would a wal mart do to a small town etc. Democrat run cities have the highest rents cause the Democrats get votes by harassing those of us that provide homes for most to live. Notice the word most, Democrats go for votes, not whats right or helpful. Imagine living in a city and trying to rent to low income folks and the city would provide 150k in legal fees to go after landlords. This hostility to the very people that would solve our issues is the problem. but its about getting them votes and pretending the ones that invent, teach, build, and lead us are evil. When its really about getting whats not yours, mine; its theirs but the 1% doggorunning what about them. They have money, but they get their power from government, government power for sale. For once we had a president that was not for sale, notice the ones in power would say and do anything to get him out. They always protect the ones that serve them
Bull. Covid is an excuse. They are not living in there means. It is not up to the government to pay your way. We are bless because we work. You have money if you work and live within your means. Even the lady with multiple sclerosis gets it. If SHE can do it...

I'm a landlord. I can't finance a pandemic. The government failed us. They should pay landlords directly. Simple as that. Some tenants are simply abusing this situation as well.
Guys, I'm saying this with great emotion... I'm not a landlord. If the landlords don't pay their mortgage especially those skyrocketing property taxes, the banks will get involved. A landlord is more likely to forgive than a bank with no face.

I own a rental property in my city. Over the time I've rented out what used to be my first house, every tenant has had situations come up where they couldn't pay the rent for one reason or another, some more than others. Even though I have a mortgage on the property, property taxes and insurance to pay as well as maintenance and repairs I have always worked with my tenants because I understand life happens and I don't want to have to find new tenants. It has always come out of my pocket to do this, sometimes meaning I can't pay my own utility bill, or that I'm late paying the mortgage or the taxes or my student loan and incur fees for that, or even that I don't have enough groceries to feed my own family. I'm not getting rich at this, just trying to hang on to my house so hopefully we can have something in retirement. When the tenants have moved out, the deposit usually doesn't cover the damage or the cleaning and I spend more money and time getting it ready for the next tenant. The strain on my family and my marriage because of the actions of my tenants has become enormous, especially now in the pandemic when tenants are paying less often and worse, bouncing checks that cause me to overdraft. They didn't apply for any assistance or meet the criteria for the federal eviction moratorium or fill out the form. They didn't communicate what was going on to me - when the rent day came, they just avoided me. I offered to let them pay half now, half later. When I reached out because the check for the first half bounced, I was accused of not being flexible or understanding. My property taxes and mortgage became late because you know, I have my own struggles going on. She was late on the next month too. Now I have a domestic violence situation in my own home affecting myself, my child and 3 pets. I need my other house. It's not an eviction for non payment of rent, it's an emergency and I have a place to go but I can't. I have a month to month agreement with my renter and should simply be able to end the agreement. But the governor of my state issued his own moratorium that makes it so I can't end my month to month agreement. So what should I do? Should I be the one going to a shelter because the person living in my own house doesn't have to leave? Should I get rid of my dogs because I can't take them with me to a house I own? I feel for tenants but you have to understand renting is a short term agreement. When you don't pay you don't have the right to stay, that's theft and trespassing. When your agreement ends, you need to leave. If I don't have a roof over my head, I can't put a roof over yours.
Have you tried speaking with an attorney about this situation. Since, you are technically, in a DV situation, & you are having issues with this tenant, maybe somehow the courts can intervene. In some states, it doesn't matter if there is an eviction moratorium, some landlords are still filing evictions. I would think, as long as you documented everything that has gone on with this tenant & it is a month-to-month, you might have some leigh way. I pray things work out for you/your family.
why don't those politicians let the people that is homeless to sleep in there place, because it is there fault that is not helping the american people's.

No help, no sympathy, no payment plans, no forgiveness. I'm with you. Don't look for anything in that cesspool, there is only $hit.
If tenants sign a lease for more than they can afford and don't meet their part of the agreement (i.e. don't pay their rent) how can the landlord pay the mortgage?
@@andyjackson7288 no one answers this question directly!!!!!!!! If you evict someone and the house is vacant and you are not receiving rent payments. Where do you get the money from in order to keep paying the mortgage every month.
The landlord either rents it to a new tenant who pays his bills, lowers the rent, or goes bust. On a side note, not all landlords are rich. It can be hard work to break even. This is a mess for all. Lesson might be...Don't bite off more than you can chew. Maybe U.S. folks are too materialistic. Big tvs, cars, yards, lawn mowers, phones, subscriptions, restaurants, etc...
Obviously they're going to get a new tenant. Not every single person is incapable of paying rent during these times. I know that often it seems that our own reality is the only reality but thats just not true. Everyones situation is different.
My elderly mother has a two story house in NYC and the top floor is vacant after we all moved out. Market rent is about $1800/mo. She rather leaves it vacant than renting it out because of city's pro-tenant policy and stories from relatives of evictions taking months with no rent payment. She is in public assistance and gets SNAP because the house is her only asset.
What a sad story. This virus has taken on a life of its own. People are suffering everywhere and the government is just not doing enough to help the people. It’s sad.
The government has caused the suffering with the shut downs. Their statistics are not believable. The covid vaccine is going to be the next control they'll have over us.
I hope this makes the US gain some more sense and begin to demand multi-generational homes. You have been bamboozled and hoodwinked into believing that you need to have your own place by the age of 18. Families should be saving money by buying homes together. Stop giving the banks and landlords all of this money! It’s asinine!🗣
Very sad. Stopping the rent collapses the mortgage holder/landlord; collapses the tax base; escalated housing costs... Bring back strong, multi-generational, family support systems.
@@Empowerman Hi Johnny, thanks very much for your reply! Yes it is very refreshing in these difficult times- it see and hear someone having empathy towards the most vulnerable in society!!
What about giving the money to the tenant so the tenant can pay the landlord instead of giving the money to the landlord? The United States has been in the envious position of being able to borrow tons of money very cheaply for a long time. But instead of wisely holding some of that borrowing capacity in reserve for a national emergency, the U.S. took every opportunity to borrow, borrow, and borrow to keep asset prices, like stocks, insanely high for the small percentage of wealthy stock owners while at the same time purposely keeping worker salaries stagnant so that workers would be desperate, dependent, and unable to afford to rebel if times get too hard like they are now. And when the pandemic first arrived, the U.S. government had another excuse to approve trillions in bailout borrowing to pump up the stock market again after Trump already gave tax breaks to the rich and corporations who didn't need the money. Greed made the government blind to the massive economic impact the virus would have. And now months and months later, people are suffering more than ever. It's becoming a Third World existence for more and more Americans. And don't think any of you comfy in your homes with your rent and mortgages securely paid are safe. Sooner or later, you will be next. Remember, if you like working from home you're telling your employer somebody in a place like Bangalore can do your job for a lot less. Think they can't do your job as well as you? fabrics woven by hand in the 19th century were often better than the machines of the industrial revolution could make them. That didn't help those weavers keep their jobs. And what about all that cheaply made imported furniture? Did that keep skilled American craftsmen from losing their jobs in South Carolina? And how about all those telephone operators who thought a robotic voice couldn't do their jobs as well? Being right didn't save their jobs, either.
I know a wise lady, and she once said, "America has seen her last glory days." This country is going to make sure that football, basketball, and baseball don't stop. This is the greediest nation on the earth!!!!!
The problem is greater than landlords and tenants. It is called money management. Tenants drive $45,000 cars but can't buy food or pay rent. Our country is going to be without landlords because people don't pay. If I don't pay my car they will take it. My landlord can't kick me out. I heard this first hand today.
We need to start blaming ourselves and be accountable.. We shouldn't be letting the government control our lives in the first place.. THINK OUTSIDE THE MATRIX..
It makes me so mad that the government asks us to stay home, shut down our communities, and let our unemployment run out. All these politicians need to go.

The country as a whole needs Renters caps. I live in a low income neighborhood have been in my home for 13 yrs it was sold twice in less then 3 years and my rent went up $ 300.00 with the 1st sale to a foreigner that owed seven elevens and liquor stores this made me have to get housing assistance do to the increase in rent I live in a 1973 apartment building 1 bedroom I am on SSDI not by choice ok maybe it is by choice rather then living in the park unable to walk or go back to work the increase was just to much and I had to swallow more of my pride and then the new owners had it for a year and a half, fixed nothing and then it was sold again. Things happen in our live that some times we have no control of and no matter how hard you try you find a new lesson to learned. you lose your home use up all your 30 years of saving and are unable to start over no matter what you do .The government needs to fix this, so people do not have to rob Peter to pay Paul and have to struggle/worry, just to put more money in Greedy peoples pocket's Just saying / whining Thank you Blessing and Peace to you all
Renting for 40+ years? God bless you but that's a recipe for disaster. You said it: no control over what happens to you. Why not own? Houses used to cost so little...
Americans will drive a expensive car go out to expensive meals but not pay their rent. So landlords have to say pay your rent or be evicted. So they get evicted then landlords get a judgement but tenants don't pay landlords the money they owe them. They get evicted because americans don't know how to manage money.
This is why people become nomadic they go to low altitude in winter like the west coast for warmth and high altitude in summer for cooler temps and just live in their cars. That's an ok life if you choose it but its devastating if it is forced on you!

I will still work in my van and contribute to the household I am getting set up for my son, to help him and have a home base. Those forced to live in vehicles are only surviving, not living.
That's a SHAME ON the government that only think and see the rich that never see the people that is suffering . Government only see the poor people when that want there VOTE
This is where it is, Mr. Trump should look at this instead of his lawsuits for HIMSELF! JFK proclaimed his administration's philosophy as a "New Frontier." We as Americans need to have a new vision, our government needs a new vision. "Where there is no vision, people perish." Our new vision needs to be focused upon our citizens, all of them regardless of race, income, or political affiliation.
I will never forget how I was homeless at a short period of time so that is why I will always keep some type of RV or camper and even a tent because you just don’t know what can really happen to yourself.. keep your eyes open and always be prepared for the what if . I hope she gets help 😢
That CDC order is useless and worthless. I'm not saying all landlords are heartless and all tenants do what's right, but this disaster did and does not have to unfold like this.
Seeing some of these comments that are hateful, negative and down right mean... My name is Margaret Eaddy and for the ppl who only seen me on this brilliant informative news report and say some of the most hurtful things to my husband and I... You do not know us... if we wouldn't have done this would you have know the horrific storm of evictions done without the general publics knowledge... How dare anyone who doesn't know what it feel like to be without a place to go shelter in... We have a really big problem in the states... There needs to be light shed on this subject... I cry everyday 😢 about how and if we are going to make it out of this alive... For all the ppl who are helping and want to help whether it be words of encouragement of an invite to stay in their homes... My husband and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts... we love you all... this is going to make a difference... The CBS family Ted Koppel is the most compassionate man I have met in years... He made me feel and let me know that there are people who really do care... I was asked to do this news report to help others... And to raise awareness that FAMILIES ARE BEING EVICTED IN A DEADLY PANDEMIC... BEING PUT AT GREATER RISK TO CONTRACT COVID-19... May ALMIGHTY GOD judge accordingly to your hateful hearts...

@David Shelton, We are in trouble, because Satan loving Democraps, such as you, have destroyed a once great nation, we all hope you a proud of what you did, now move to China, where you belong.
Long-time landlord here. I have a four unit building where no tenant has paid since March 2020. No communication from any of them. They all work. THAT is what this "moratorium" is all about folks.
Pay your rent or mortgage on time every time. 1st buy food rice and beans $15. Then pay your rent. Then pay your utilities. Never buy anything on credit. Homelessness is horrible and life changing so get a place where your monthly housing cost is less than 25% of your monthly income and do everything you can to make more money. Don't buy on credit.... anything at any time. Good Luck everyone.
This would have been good 10yrs ago, heck, even 5 yrs ago. We are in a different period now, 2020. What might have worked in the past, may work for a little while, but it won't last unfortunately. I agree with you, beans & rice, with a side salad is good. You can get it all at the dollar stores, 99cent stores, walmart, etc.
We need a democrat controlled senate, because the republican plan is to sabotage any measure Biden tries to do to help people, and then blame blame the suffering on Biden and the democrats.
I can relate to a certain degree due to the fact that I was displaced/homeless for 2 years along with my than 4 1/2 year old daughter. This was due to the fact that my sidewall of the apartment had collapsed! I was a tax credit tenant; making descent money as a PCA. I lived in Philadelphia, PA. This happened on November 27, 2018; I had to vacate within 2/hrs. Management lied and told me that I was going to be displaced for 30 days! My apartment was a 2/bd; which management wrongfully placed us in a Senior Citizen/Handicap 1/bd that was vacant with violations. They wanted me to pay rent as though as I lived at the original apartment. It was 2 other tenants who was Hispanic they placed them in 2 & 3/bd apartments with backyards & basements. I was the only black tenant who had a child! I was referred to a lawyer by a PHA advocate, which I spent $1600 altogether because I had 3 different lawyers. I had to move to my Mom’s house in April 2019 because my Daughter and I kept on getting sick due to the possible mold in the whole building! Management didn’t like the fact that I had my money in escrow; they tried to get me to do a recertifications on the handicap apartment which I didn’t have a lease for while I was displaced! My daughter and I aren’t Senior Citizens/handicap, which was against the law to place us there! Instead, they should’ve placed us in a Hotel/Motel and placed our belongings in storage while placing us in another apartment, and getting us a voucher. I filed multiple complaints with HUD; Fair Housing; DOJ; and I went to every political office in my district. Management also filed an unlawful grievance hearing and unlawful eviction, which I had to find out that I had a court date on the LT files, which the 1st one was thrown out because I wasn’t properly served. I won the case, which was $15,000. Til this date Management hasn’t paid me the settlement. I was still displaced since I was living with my Mother from 4/23/2019-7/8/2020, which my Mom house that she rented was tested positive for Mold(Aspergillus). My daughter and I stayed in an hotel and I paid for an Airbnb from 7/23/2020-10/27/2020. We’re in a 2/bd duplex in Upper Darby, Pa, which I rent from a family friend that was once my Late Father’s tenant. I’m “thankful” that I have for my landlord; she couldn’t believe what my Daughter and I had went through; she’s a blessing! Being homelesss during the COVID-19 or just in general is highly stressful; which worse is that this administration don’t give a damn about the American people because 2 jobs was also affected during the week of March 13. As a college graduate with 2 college degrees(AS in Justice and BS in Criminal Justice); and filing unemployment , which I filed on March 16, 2020, which I didn’t get it until June 4, 2020. It was stressful, and I lived off of child support and I was paying for Catholic School and taking care of my Mother with Dementia. These landlords should understand what people are going through, especially if they were good paying tenants! Some of these landlords are not coming out to fix anything either, which my Mother landlord that she rented from for 24 years didn’t inspect or fix anything; I paid for the mold/lead test and called L&I. They still didn’t do nothing! I feel for the family that’s living in there car; and the lady that had the landlord complain about the grass; or the tenant that had MS and lived there for over 13 years and was on time with her rent and she had MS. I see where she’s coming from by taking her money and moving somewhere else because that landlord didn’t care that she lost her job or her chronic illness and she work in Mental Health too! I hope and pray that their story will get them some donations because nobody don’t deserve what they endured because 45(Trump) or these politicians should see that Homelessness is the highest in this country since the Great Depression; and they need to come together and get a stimulus package because unemployment is running out and more people are getting COVID now! I had to get 2 jobs this month so I can maintain, and provide and pay for Catholic School; After Care; rent; food; etc. This COVID had affected people worldwide when it comes to their losing their jobs; homes; daycare; etc. It’s a nightmare; all 45 is concerned about is losing the election and making false claims that it was rigged; but the American people are suffering everyday when it comes to unemployment; homelessness; going to food banks because they can’t afford food; etc.
My tenant owed me 3 months of rent and they applied for a state program that helps people avoid homelessness and today I got paid in full by the state. More states need to step up to the plate.
Awww this was heart breaking. Reporter: Where are you going to go when it's cold? Homeless lady: I don't know. It was cold last night. 😭😭😭😭 And the lady with MS..I understand her point! So sad.
I saw a lady in my building evicted. This was years ago, in Seattle. They put all her things out in the driveway, in the rain. It was one of the saddest things I've ever seen.

Sobering reality that could happen to any of us.
I've been extremely lucky to be able to pay my rent every month during this time, early even, and my landlord still threatened to evict me when I asked them to stop doing in-person showings in my apartment (I live in a property that's up for sale). It really can happen to anyone (edit: though, of course, some are more vulnerable than others).

Been there done that during double recession in early 80s and seen things happened since.
Most ignored it but I didn’t.
I have no issues at all during this Covid crisis. Heck I just retired 15 years early.
I even have rentals with no issues but I paid cash fir them and no back or government control. I doubt anyone will laugh at me for avoiding leverage now. I can just keep them empty with no on issue.
If banks can get bailed out because they are too big to fail, why can't they return the favor? Isn't the American population too big to fail also?
Two words: Republican Party.
Well, that's stupid.

Our neighbor was not a legal resident of the US. His brother died and he lost his home because he was unable to pay all his rent alone.

Why isn’t the big financial institutions helping with mortgage and/or rent relief. Didn’t the US taxpayers bail out those institutions in 2008?

Being homeless is one of my all-time greatest fears, In times like these you not only realize what jobs can survive both a pandemic and recession but also the importance of having true friends and a supportive family because I literally only recently got a well paying job after 7 months of sitting at home unemployed thanks to a friend.
Being a "homeless" person myself for 5 years, I can understand the fear, anger and denial of a community of people who have the fortune enough to have shelter. But this "problem" is NOT going to go away and our elected officials on Capitol Hill are in no way, looking out for our greater good. You can pray all you want, but change is a MUST!!!
This is so real and so scary MILLIONS of people could quite literally end up homeless
Maybe that's what it takes for real housing reform for the 1/3 of American households who are renters, like:
🔥-actual national, transparent, easily accessible slumlord/bad actor database (nope, Yelp ain't cutting it, though when people are HONEST on there it can literally save lives, it's actually very messed up that we can get more information about a vacant hotel room than about a vacant apartment than about a given apartment's management and about an apartment might be vacant --like for example, maybe tremendous noise conditions that they should be required to disclose instead of just taking people's money and then making money on the flip after every time somebody moves out over something that they fail to disclose or fail to take responsibility for or fix/address--A LOT of landlords make more turnung over a unit every 6 months and keeping deposits (see below) than actually doing repairs rent pays for, i.e., THEIR JOBS.
🔥-WE NEED actual rules and regulations on who becomes a landlord and maybe training on "the job" of landlording if we insist it's a job (not every Joe with extra space should be a landlord, discrimination and refusal to rent based on income-- which is ILLEGAL-- is rampant. Please flag ads discriminating against pensions and Disability income by using coded langauge like "must have 9-5 job," "must be employed outside the home"--IF YOUR INCOME IS GREATER THAN THE RENT, THEY MYST TAKE IT, NO MATTER ITS SOURCE, AND REFUSAL TO TAKE IT IS ILLEGAL, one of the FEW renters protections that apply IN ALL 50 STATES, PS WE NEED MORE WRITTEN LAWS PROTECTING RENTERS)
🔥-WE NEED way more, and more adequately funded landlord/tenant courts (SLUMLORDS ABUSE THEIR TENANTS BECAUSE THEY KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO SUE--more disputes would put SLUMLORDS rightfully out of "business")--🔥 Turns out you can't have it both ways, landlords, that if you actually want to be seen as "having a job" and "running a business" you need to actually have to follow the part of the LEASE -- that's actually a CONTRACT-- where it says that you actually have to provide a service, not just take people's money, that you actually have to keep things in good repair and actually maintain them... and that's going to cost some of the money that you would ordinarily call "profit" (HINT: SHELTER IS A RIGHT YOU SHOULDN'T FEEL GREAT ABOUT DRIVING UP THE COSTS OF FOR YOUR PERSONAL PROFITMAKING) but if you actually want to keep going with this that it's actually "a job" and actually "a business," well, those are the parameters of "a job" and "a business"🤔🤔🤔
-🔥WE NEED national laws governing minimum yearly repairs (INSTEAD OF THE STATUS QUO OF ALL LAWS BEING PRO-LANDLORD AND ANTI-THE PEOPLE PAYING THE LANDLORD'S SALARY)
🔥-WE NEED RIGHT NOW security deposit and minimum income requirement reform (it is exclusionary and a barrier, CLASSIST AND RACIST, to require thousands of dollars UP FRONT just to obtain shelter. Where is it written that it MUST be an up-front lump sum rather than collected in installments with rent?) AND HOW MANY X/TIMES THE RENT IS REALLY ENOUGH FOR TENANCY AND WHAT'S EXCLUSIONARY CLASSISM/SEGREGATION BY A SOFTER NAME? 🔥BTW, landlords can always sue for "actual" damage, SO STOP DEFENDING DEPOSITS THAT ARE HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO OBTAIN SHELTER (AND WHICH ARE HARDLY EVER REFUNDED IN FULL AND GOOD LUCK EVER SEEING THAT MONEY AGAIN DUE TO OVERWHELMED AND ANTI-TWNANT COURTS).
🔥EXCESSIVE DEPOSITS AND INCOME REQUIREMENTS FOR TENANCY CONTRIBUTE TO DEBT SLAVERY AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE TO MOVE OUT OF BAD, POORLY REPAIRED, AND UNSAFE HOUSING. Most adult people in places actually in good repair don't go around "damaging" places.
Homelesness is a HOUSING AFFORDABILITY problem, not a choice!
See our Renting is Broken highlights on Instagram: youshouldbeangry2020 and demand change from your local, federal, state officials! CALIFORNIA voted against rent control in a pandemic. Be better than Califonia!
🔥BAD HOUSING RUINS LIVES!
🔥HOMELESSNESS RUINS LIVES!
🔥EVICTIONS SHOULD BE BANNED PERMANENTLY!
🔥SHELTER IS A HUMAN RIGHT!
🔥ALL OF THIS SHOULD BE UNIVERSALLY AGREED UPON COMMON SENSE!
🔥SORRY, IF YOU WANT TO CASH IN ON THE HUMAN NEED AND RIGHT TO SHELTER, YOU'D BETTER PROVIDE TIMELY REPAIRS AND APPRECIATE STABLE TENANTS INSTEAD OF RAISING OUR RENT EVERY YEAR!

...and Americans tax money goes to handouts to corporate America.
your right. because I saw a video were a tenet was living in a apartment for 20 years has always paid his rent on time and STILL got evicted... they don't care about us
Worked for basically every corporation and never benefitted to be able to provide the necessities to live.
And the rationalization for it is that business MUST be that way. Which is BS. We make the rules, we can remake them.
This thing of dumping people's stuff on the front lawn is particularly cruel and shaming. What is wrong with this country?

Stop paying your property tax and see what they do. Government will bring guns to get their share.
Wait until families start doing it to each other. Best to be self sustainable, rural and independent.
Greed
As a landlord, if I had a good tenant for 13 years I would definitely try to work with her to keep her in the property because vacancy is expensive! They were likely wanting to evict to increase rent on a newer tenant.
I am packing up from my home of ten years. But I am lucky - I have the help of family. I am so sorry this is happening to them. I hope the segment brings them help and hope.
You are really lucky!
Damn that's cold
Most people don't have families to turn too.
I feel your pain 😪 We packed up our house last week also. When I asked for an extension from my landlord, because we are having a hard time finding a new place to live, she said she would give me and my children 3 more days and if I wasn't out by then they would bring the police by to make me leave, turn off the water and electricity and change the locks on the doors. Thankfully we have family to help us out as well so we are at least able to stay in a hotel room for the time being.❤ My prayers are with you and everyone else struggling to make it through these hard times!!!!🙏

Thank you for a Connor sense answer. I am a landlord and as a senior citizens depend on it for my bills to be paid. I have a deadbeat that has not paid in six months, still has a job he goes to every day and just bought a new car but uses this ciovid moratorium when I attempted to evict him. No rent plus I pay for the water, trash repairs etc. life is not fair for anyone but he is the lowest of them all because he is a liar and a cheat.
Yes, especially smaller landlords who only did a small number of properties to secure their finances. If we treat the smaller landlords like trash, word will get out and only bigger landlords who can fight the legal system will offer apartments to the public.
How much does an empty property pay the landlord? Oh yeah...nothing.

Its AWFUL....I hope you get something soon, if you have stuff to sell, try ebay, just food money but at least you can eat....
"We can do better than that as a country." Absolutely. This will have an effect on entire communities regardless if you are home or property insecure now. Everywhere people are tired of losing, stressed and getting angrier with no one to blame. An opportunity for change is before us, but will we work together, find and take it, or continue the free falling downward spiral we are experiencing?
Politicians reluctant to give Americans "too much money" don't have to worry about their housing situation.
Skid row coming to your city too.
yup, new homeless camp down the road. But the cops bring coffee and breakfast, the neighborhoods got together to bring needed supplies, the city worked on getting them places to live. Still there, though, and growing. 😟
Same here in my city. Tents are popping up all over the downtown and surrounding areas. Unbelievable.
Already here in the wealthy parts of NYC
I honestly think eviction should be blocked during winter months. its a death sentence to anyone sleeping outside with no heat.

I been evicted since I lost my job. Then I went on SSI, but the management thought it came to late so I have to get out by Jan. 6 2021. But my SSI is not enough to move.

Landlords have to pay their property taxes. Give free rent to Tenants and give tax relieve to Landlords!!!
Better to give relief to tenants so they can pay their rent. Or maybe to do your approach, the government should just give relief to banks when the landlords can't pay their mortgages, and skip over the tenants and the landlords both. Oh, wait. That's what the government does.
Hope ur heart and wallet stays intact, to continue assisting ur brother. BE SAFE & HEALTHY!
if money is the root of all that is EviL. then money is the root cause of all this. we would never be in this mess if money didn't existed
Landlords need income, not just tax money,
@@RICKEYDD We are to far in, world is based on $$$$!
As a landlord, we have reduced our rentals to just one, began downsizing last year as rent control laws were gaining momentum. Grocery stores can raise prices of food, but landlords cannot?!? We only had 3 rentals, so we were small potato landlords. But it was our retirement plan for 30 years that we have had to scrap. We couldn't afford to keep paying all the costs without getting rents if they continued to pass rent control and eviction limiting laws. I feel like we dodged a bullet, as we closed our property in January of this year before the pandemic picked up. Thank you for including a small landlord in your story CBS. By the way, we have never evicted a tenant, in 28 years of being landlords.
My uncle used to be a landlord back when times were good and there were few regulations. After a few years, he got out of the business. Because back then it was so easy to afford to buy a house, only the very poorest people rented and so his tenants kept falling behind on their rent.
My rent is going up 20 dollars in January
@bad dog God you are stupid...!
The Damn Banks need to create a mortage moratorium! Stop requiring landlords to collect rent!
Why don’t these landlords accept something instead of having vacant properties? Who are they going to get in their if every is sick or out of work.
This is one of the saddest documentaries I've ever seen. Why isn't the government trying to help these people?
@Nathan Anderson I agree.
Because the truth is the world can still function if you let people die off in mass numbers. Its sad, but those on top know they can let some people fall under and enough people are still doing well that the system won't topple completely.

@@gingernightmare9152 No one cashes in by losing renters, now are we speaking of 3d chess? Sure, we could go even deeper like BLM caused the riots, that were paid for by the billionaires who now can get business property all over the country for 30% less than last year. Also literally no regulations as long as they provide side walks and infrastructure. City impact will not be considered, such as what would a wal mart do to a small town etc. Democrat run cities have the highest rents cause the Democrats get votes by harassing those of us that provide homes for most to live. Notice the word most, Democrats go for votes, not whats right or helpful. Imagine living in a city and trying to rent to low income folks and the city would provide 150k in legal fees to go after landlords. This hostility to the very people that would solve our issues is the problem. but its about getting them votes and pretending the ones that invent, teach, build, and lead us are evil. When its really about getting whats not yours, mine; its theirs but the 1% doggorunning what about them. They have money, but they get their power from government, government power for sale. For once we had a president that was not for sale, notice the ones in power would say and do anything to get him out. They always protect the ones that serve them

Guys, I'm saying this with great emotion... I'm not a landlord. If the landlords don't pay their mortgage especially those skyrocketing property taxes, the banks will get involved. A landlord is more likely to forgive than a bank with no face.

I own a rental property in my city. Over the time I've rented out what used to be my first house, every tenant has had situations come up where they couldn't pay the rent for one reason or another, some more than others. Even though I have a mortgage on the property, property taxes and insurance to pay as well as maintenance and repairs I have always worked with my tenants because I understand life happens and I don't want to have to find new tenants. It has always come out of my pocket to do this, sometimes meaning I can't pay my own utility bill, or that I'm late paying the mortgage or the taxes or my student loan and incur fees for that, or even that I don't have enough groceries to feed my own family. I'm not getting rich at this, just trying to hang on to my house so hopefully we can have something in retirement. When the tenants have moved out, the deposit usually doesn't cover the damage or the cleaning and I spend more money and time getting it ready for the next tenant. The strain on my family and my marriage because of the actions of my tenants has become enormous, especially now in the pandemic when tenants are paying less often and worse, bouncing checks that cause me to overdraft. They didn't apply for any assistance or meet the criteria for the federal eviction moratorium or fill out the form. They didn't communicate what was going on to me - when the rent day came, they just avoided me. I offered to let them pay half now, half later. When I reached out because the check for the first half bounced, I was accused of not being flexible or understanding. My property taxes and mortgage became late because you know, I have my own struggles going on. She was late on the next month too. Now I have a domestic violence situation in my own home affecting myself, my child and 3 pets. I need my other house. It's not an eviction for non payment of rent, it's an emergency and I have a place to go but I can't. I have a month to month agreement with my renter and should simply be able to end the agreement. But the governor of my state issued his own moratorium that makes it so I can't end my month to month agreement. So what should I do? Should I be the one going to a shelter because the person living in my own house doesn't have to leave? Should I get rid of my dogs because I can't take them with me to a house I own? I feel for tenants but you have to understand renting is a short term agreement. When you don't pay you don't have the right to stay, that's theft and trespassing. When your agreement ends, you need to leave. If I don't have a roof over my head, I can't put a roof over yours.
Have you tried speaking with an attorney about this situation. Since, you are technically, in a DV situation, & you are having issues with this tenant, maybe somehow the courts can intervene. In some states, it doesn't matter if there is an eviction moratorium, some landlords are still filing evictions. I would think, as long as you documented everything that has gone on with this tenant & it is a month-to-month, you might have some leigh way. I pray things work out for you/your family.
why don't those politicians let the people that is homeless to sleep in there place, because it is there fault that is not helping the american people's.

Homeless people aren’t getting covid as much. Maybe bc the open air?
It may be easier with open spaces. However, you give up warmth (In Chicago and the temps are trending down), sanitation, privacy, and safety.
you say: landlords life doesnt matter?
can a landlord answer this. If you evict someone and the house is vacant, how do you make mortgage payments on the house?
If tenants sign a lease for more than they can afford and don't meet their part of the agreement (i.e. don't pay their rent) how can the landlord pay the mortgage?
@@andyjackson7288 no one answers this question directly!!!!!!!! If you evict someone and the house is vacant and you are not receiving rent payments. Where do you get the money from in order to keep paying the mortgage every month.
The landlord either rents it to a new tenant who pays his bills, lowers the rent, or goes bust. On a side note, not all landlords are rich. It can be hard work to break even. This is a mess for all. Lesson might be...Don't bite off more than you can chew. Maybe U.S. folks are too materialistic. Big tvs, cars, yards, lawn mowers, phones, subscriptions, restaurants, etc...
Obviously they're going to get a new tenant. Not every single person is incapable of paying rent during these times. I know that often it seems that our own reality is the only reality but thats just not true. Everyones situation is different.
That’s how the people felt in 2008 when your bought their property by foreclosure and became a landlord.
Mercy mercy God please please hear our prayers Amen amen
@Mary Ybarra, God does not help, Satan loving, devils like you and never will.
Sad. Tenants should get rent assistance to give the landlord something.
My elderly mother has a two story house in NYC and the top floor is vacant after we all moved out. Market rent is about $1800/mo. She rather leaves it vacant than renting it out because of city's pro-tenant policy and stories from relatives of evictions taking months with no rent payment. She is in public assistance and gets SNAP because the house is her only asset.
What a sad story. This virus has taken on a life of its own. People are suffering everywhere and the government is just not doing enough to help the people. It’s sad.
The government has caused the suffering with the shut downs. Their statistics are not believable. The covid vaccine is going to be the next control they'll have over us.
I hope this makes the US gain some more sense and begin to demand multi-generational homes. You have been bamboozled and hoodwinked into believing that you need to have your own place by the age of 18. Families should be saving money by buying homes together. Stop giving the banks and landlords all of this money! It’s asinine!🗣
Very nice to hear from Ted Koppel.

The banks do not “need to get paid”
What about giving the money to the tenant so the tenant can pay the landlord instead of giving the money to the landlord? The United States has been in the envious position of being able to borrow tons of money very cheaply for a long time.
But instead of wisely holding some of that borrowing capacity in reserve for a national emergency, the U.S. took every opportunity to borrow, borrow, and borrow to keep asset prices, like stocks, insanely high for the small percentage of wealthy stock owners while at the same time purposely keeping worker salaries stagnant so that workers would be desperate, dependent, and unable to afford to rebel if times get too hard like they are now.
And when the pandemic first arrived, the U.S. government had another excuse to approve trillions in bailout borrowing to pump up the stock market again after Trump already gave tax breaks to the rich and corporations who didn't need the money. Greed made the government blind to the massive economic impact the virus would have. And now months and months later, people are suffering more than ever. It's becoming a Third World existence for more and more Americans.
And don't think any of you comfy in your homes with your rent and mortgages securely paid are safe. Sooner or later, you will be next.
Remember, if you like working from home you're telling your employer somebody in a place like Bangalore can do your job for a lot less.
Think they can't do your job as well as you? fabrics woven by hand in the 19th century were often better than the machines of the industrial revolution could make them. That didn't help those weavers keep their jobs.
And what about all that cheaply made imported furniture? Did that keep skilled American craftsmen from losing their jobs in South Carolina?
And how about all those telephone operators who thought a robotic voice couldn't do their jobs as well? Being right didn't save their jobs, either.
You can't trust tenants to pay their rent.

The country as a whole needs Renters caps. I live in a low income neighborhood have been in my home for 13 yrs it was sold twice in less then 3 years and my rent went up $ 300.00 with the 1st sale to a foreigner that owed seven elevens and liquor stores this made me have to get housing assistance do to the increase in rent I live in a 1973 apartment building 1 bedroom I am on SSDI not by choice ok maybe it is by choice rather then living in the park unable to walk or go back to work the increase was just to much and I had to swallow more of my pride and then the new owners had it for a year and a half, fixed nothing and then it was sold again. Things happen in our live that some times we have no control of and no matter how hard you try you find a new lesson to learned. you lose your home use up all your 30 years of saving and are unable to start over no matter what you do .The government needs to fix this, so people do not have to rob Peter to pay Paul and have to struggle/worry, just to put more money in Greedy peoples pocket's Just saying / whining Thank you Blessing and Peace to you all

Simple solution. Banks give Landlords a break on the mortgage, if the renters can't pay. Government then bail out the banks...again.
BINGO !!!
Why in the USA there is this eviction policy...in Italy and all across Europe it doesn't exist....never heard..
Americans will drive a expensive car go out to expensive meals but not pay their rent. So landlords have to say pay your rent or be evicted. So they get evicted then landlords get a judgement but tenants don't pay landlords the money they owe them. They get evicted because americans don't know how to manage money.

I can relate to a certain degree due to the fact that I was displaced/homeless for 2 years along with my than 4 1/2 year old daughter. This was due to the fact that my sidewall of the apartment had collapsed! I was a tax credit tenant; making descent money as a PCA. I lived in Philadelphia, PA. This happened on November 27, 2018; I had to vacate within 2/hrs. Management lied and told me that I was going to be displaced for 30 days! My apartment was a 2/bd; which management wrongfully placed us in a Senior Citizen/Handicap 1/bd that was vacant with violations. They wanted me to pay rent as though as I lived at the original apartment. It was 2 other tenants who was Hispanic they placed them in 2 & 3/bd apartments with backyards & basements. I was the only black tenant who had a child!
I was referred to a lawyer by a PHA advocate, which I spent $1600 altogether because I had 3 different lawyers. I had to move to my Mom’s house in April 2019 because my Daughter and I kept on getting sick due to the possible mold in the whole building! Management didn’t like the fact that I had my money in escrow; they tried to get me to do a recertifications on the handicap apartment which I didn’t have a lease for while I was displaced! My daughter and I aren’t Senior Citizens/handicap, which was against the law to place us there! Instead, they should’ve placed us in a Hotel/Motel and placed our belongings in storage while placing us in another apartment, and getting us a voucher. I filed multiple complaints with HUD; Fair Housing; DOJ; and I went to every political office in my district.
Management also filed an unlawful grievance hearing and unlawful eviction, which I had to find out that I had a court date on the LT files, which the 1st one was thrown out because I wasn’t properly served. I won the case, which was $15,000. Til this date Management hasn’t paid me the settlement.
I was still displaced since I was living with my Mother from 4/23/2019-7/8/2020, which my Mom house that she rented was tested positive for Mold(Aspergillus). My daughter and I stayed in an hotel and I paid for an Airbnb from 7/23/2020-10/27/2020. We’re in a 2/bd duplex in Upper Darby, Pa, which I rent from a family friend that was once my Late Father’s tenant.
I’m “thankful” that I have for my landlord; she couldn’t believe what my Daughter and I had went through; she’s a blessing!
Being homelesss during the COVID-19 or just in general is highly stressful; which worse is that this administration don’t give a damn about the American people because 2 jobs was also affected during the week of March 13. As a college graduate with 2 college degrees(AS in Justice and BS in Criminal Justice); and filing unemployment , which I filed on March 16, 2020, which I didn’t get it until June 4, 2020. It was stressful, and I lived off of child support and I was paying for Catholic School and taking care of my Mother with Dementia.
These landlords should understand what people are going through, especially if they were good paying tenants! Some of these landlords are not coming out to fix anything either, which my Mother landlord that she rented from for 24 years didn’t inspect or fix anything; I paid for the mold/lead test and called L&I. They still didn’t do nothing!
I feel for the family that’s living in there car; and the lady that had the landlord complain about the grass; or the tenant that had MS and lived there for over 13 years and was on time with her rent and she had MS. I see where she’s coming from by taking her money and moving somewhere else because that landlord didn’t care that she lost her job or her chronic illness and she work in Mental Health too!
I hope and pray that their story will get them some donations because nobody don’t deserve what they endured because 45(Trump) or these politicians should see that Homelessness is the highest in this country since the Great Depression; and they need to come together and get a stimulus package because unemployment is running out and more people are getting COVID now! I had to get 2 jobs this month so I can maintain, and provide and pay for Catholic School; After Care; rent; food; etc. This COVID had affected people worldwide when it comes to their losing their jobs; homes; daycare; etc. It’s a nightmare; all 45 is concerned about is losing the election and making false claims that it was rigged; but the American people are suffering everyday when it comes to unemployment; homelessness; going to food banks because they can’t afford food; etc.
My tenant owed me 3 months of rent and they applied for a state program that helps people avoid homelessness and today I got paid in full by the state. More states need to step up to the plate.

Homeless lady: I don't know. It was cold last night. 😭😭😭😭

They could halt the evictions all they want but the tenants still have to pay that back rent so the eviction is gonna come sooner or later anyway.
