<div dir="ltr">I agree with Steve. <div><br></div><div>I also have to say that these additional protections (which I'm going to call "rights") still don't deal with a large underlying problem - addiction. As a practitioner of this area, I see that many of my clients are not interested in evicting tenants for unpaid rent - it's the underlying conduct that leads to the inability to pay rent that is a large part of the reason. And these new rights are not going to help those underlying causes. I'm not speaking just as an attorney here - I have family members who struggle and so I know from personal experience that these new rights will only hinder individuals from seeking help. I had a case earlier this year where the Commissioner essentially held that the tenant's use of heroin on the Property was not sufficient "significant and immediate health and safety risk to others" which led to the tenant completely ceasing to pay rent and now her rent money goes to her habit and this tenant knows there's nothing the landlord can do to remove her and other tenants have vacated because her presence makes them feel unsafe (who can blame them?). So, now she's probably further down the path of no return. In my opinion, this was helped along by these "sledgehammer" policies. The new policies are no different - and I think go even further. </div><div><br></div><div>These new rights are, in my opinion, going to lead to large corporations sweeping up the affordable housing when smaller landlords (including me) sell and exchange their investment for pastures that ensure we at least have some control over our property. Then, when the corporations are in control, the only way to keep housing "affordable" will be rent control. All of this will lead (in my opinion) to public housing located in some areas, and owner-occupied properties in other areas. So not only will we have economic disparity dividing the "haves" and the "have-nots" but we will have physical distance as well. A problem that I think exists today to some degree but that the long term effects of these changes will only exacerbate over time. I hope I'm wrong about that. </div><div><br></div><div>I could propose changes to current Moratoria and the proposed legislation that would help make sure that the good intentions of these policies are honored, while ensuring that the abuse and overreach are curtailed. But, I don't think that the legislators are actually hearing from those of us who understand the functional and practical impact of these policies. Rather, they seem to just want to appease the relevant voter base with laws that look shiny and blue. So, I would just be screaming into the wind. </div><div><br></div><div>The good news for me is that all the new law changes and complicated eviction hurdles is essentially ensuring this portion of my practice will have plenty of work for the foreseeable future. </div><div><br></div><div>Kaitlyn</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Dec 17, 2020 at 3:31 PM Eric Nelsen <<a href="mailto:eric@sayrelawoffices.com">eric@sayrelawoffices.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p>You're generalizing. The moratorium protects an entire class regardless of their need, at the expense of another class, regardless of their need. If it were based on economics I'd have little problem with it, but it's not. Beyond that though, I'm worried
about the long term adverse effects on those who actually need the protection. The moratorium may have given them a false sense of security and lead them to make bad decisions. Back when I practiced law I did primarily debtor bankruptcy and the moratorium
is likely causing people to make decisions that no competent financial planner would ever advise them to make.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Also, you can't even assume someone who rents cannot afford to own. They may just not wish to own for many different reasons.<u></u><u></u></p>
