All of these people who "lost" their jobs are on cloud 9, taking in more money via unemployment than they ever did. I drive through NJ and PA and my daughter who is 6 years old notices all the "Help Wanted" or "Now Hiring" signs now that she's learned how to read. These people are the laziest leeches on the face of the planet. My brother got furloughed as a truck driver and he's collecting unemployment and working 3 jobs under the table now...He's tripled his take home pay.

Yep lot of that going on, many teachers getting full pay from the taxpayer while teaching/babysitting kids of desperate on the side, more than doubling their net pay for half the hours.

And you tighten the escrow contract with those provisions when necessary. There's a reason all these safeguards, checks and balances are there

Which means, "Why didn't the Realtard or the R/E lawyer who wrote that contract not do so?"

Seems to me they might have a case against the Realtard firm.

No. All a realtor does is find a buyer, period. Realtor or not, you need a title company or a lawyer at closing. The lawyer decides when the check is released. They definitely should file a malpractice claim against the closing attorney or the title company.

Nooooooooo!

Somebody's gotta remind me what used to be the biggest class action lawsuit in history?

Oh, was that the tobacco thingy where all the States ganged up on a corrupt industry?

The shear amounts of rent that was not paid dwarfs that one. Holy fucktards, good thing the taxpayers have deep pockets to cover all these loses that didn't need to occur to those poor landlords. Do the lawyers really get a third of that?

Do I sense the first trillion dollar lawsuit?

Good use of "whom" as the object there.

We need better grammar on the right, to take away one more stereotype from them.

Grandma and grandpa used to disagree on grammar.

Grandma was classically educated. She could converse in French, Italian, and Spanish. She could read and write in Latin and Greek. She believed in proper English grammar and would quote the rule that you broke as she was was correcting your speech.

Grandpa was genius. Taught himself practical trigonometry and surveying. He worked as a finish carpenter and was well known for his cabinet work. He made it through 9th grade. His take on grammar was make sure you are understood and fuck the rules.

No wonder they divorced.

Fuck them overeducated grammar nazis (not you Grandma). If they can't understand facts and logic it won't help if you write and speak "properly".

Stereotypes are stereotypes and the racists are always going to judge you on the color of your skin and not the content of your character.

The Eviction Moratorium is BACK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vkw4dPBVSlo

I'm hugely beating my dick over the eviction moratorium lapse. If you didn't give all your stimulus check to pay your rent and assure you were safe, fuck yourself. You got a free ride because of a govt pointing a gun at the heads of land owners.

According the "The Uneducated Economist" (YouTube channel) Oregon as extended the moratorium until Feb 2022, assuming tenants make payments between now and then.
I somehow doubt that people are going to get evicted in mass in February.

Fucking Biden openly acknowledges he has no legal authority to extend the moratorium then turns around and extends it anyway, saying that by the time the SCOTUS rules to stop him he'll waste another $45B.

I just watched clip of him saying that. They don't care what is legal or not just game the system to get what you want.

Some guy on the interwebz:

"It was easy. I put my home into a trust. Lots of people do that its just paper work. Then I had the trust rent me the house. Then I declared a hardship and stopped paying myself rent. Pretty soon I get a federal hand out for back rent, ha ha."

Legit? BS?

Illegal. The gov can crack the trust if they investigate. And they actually will. Most certainly if you're white. Not a joke.

Had a neighbor that worked for my wife's company. He quit to work for a business his FIL purchased for him. Collected unemployment while collecting cash for the new business and working (no paycheck). I don't know the details as it's a sensitive subject because it cost his former company money (wife's company), but I think he had to pay it all back and may have been fined a hefty amount to avoid criminal charges.

We've made it a rule that there's no shop talk/work when we get together with family and friends. Totally avoid politics. If we can't enjoy the company of others without that shit, are we really friends? And yes, it does come up, but I avoid it. I find that 80% of people really have no clue what they're talking about on a topic. So I just nod and agree. I'm not gonna change their mind.

The system can practically detect this then put together a complete criminal case automatically, ready to print out and hand to the DA's office. In the auto repair biz, corrupt smog techs and shops build up MASSIVE cases against themselves in the smog check system, part of one of the larger actuarial tables and data mining fields in existence among those the government maintains.

The state knows what every make and model tends to average out of the tailpipe at every age, and will spot patterns of implausible numbers, such as the car suddenly producing the exact concentrations of gas found in the calibration gas, steadily through the rest of the test as speed and load conditions vary, or most of the cars tested at the station showing similar emissions curves through each test on a wide sampling of makes and models. That's just for older cars using the dynamometer test. Newer cars tested using the OBDII interface system communicate by a short but specific list of protocols, and the system flags when the protocol doesn't match the vehicle reportedly getting tested. Even newer vehicles pass along the vehicle's e-VIN. It's amazing how many smog shops and technicians lose their state license for several dozen vehicles receiving a passing smog report that doesn't match the communication protocol and/or e-VIN of the vehicle tested, but curiously DOES match the protocol and VIN of an employee's personal vehicle, which is usually conveniently parked right there at the shop when the BAR investigator finally comes a-knocking, or is sometimes found undergoing its 23rd smog check of the month as they discreetly arrive.

So yeah, while California's EDD flushed a LOT of money away forever to people who blatantly didn't qualify and were actively scamming the system, the "Payroll protection" programs came with a LOT of strings attached, a LOT of documenting and pretty sure reporting requirements, and 1001 reasons and methods to trip you up and disqualify you for the "grant" which is now a loan due and payable. My accountant was pushing me HARD to take one of these loans before the Dec31 deadline. "You can always pay it back early if you don't use the money." This will probably strain our 22 year relationship moving forward. Bottom line, these PPP grant/loan things appear to be a "long game" that the State is playing for keeps. I'd like to see some of the prominent often politically connected bigwigs who got stupidly outsized amounts of grant money pay the state back their ill gotten gains.

Los Angeles Extends Eviction Moratorium To 2023!!!

Los Angeles Extends Eviction Moratorium To 2023!!!

I wonder how all of those investors that dove headfirst into the Single Family home investments to rent out, are making out?

HunterTits says

This will force them to sell out to Blackrock, etc.

That's why everyone write in Tenpoundbass on the 2024 Presidential election. I will impose an annual 10% Federal Property Tax on all non private Single Family Home Properties.
You can have two, but you must be able to prove you split your living between the two, and you never rent it out when you're not at one or the other.

If you want to be a landlord then do it right and have a multi Family unit built, or buy one. Single Family Homes are the nucleolus of the American Nuclear family, and they must be protected. They have fell under assault by the global commies, because they want to destroy the American Dream, which home ownership is the antithesis of communism.

HunterTits says

W/o apportionment, it would be unconditional.

W/apportionment, it would never pass in Congress. This is why we don't have a federal property tax now.

I would also build ten new Metro areas sprung out of lazy backwater two whore towns, between New York and California. It would add about ten million new homes to the national inventory. Most all meaningful work would be booming at any of these ten towns, as they are being built. And unlike China, I would have a Small Business administration that worked with entrepreneurs to be ready with Jobs and businesses at those towns as they grew. They wouldn't just be Ghost city shells. I saw what Hurricane Andrews did for South Florida, I know this model works I've seen it. Blackwater, Haliburton, and other huge Construction outfits would be blacklisted from having anything to do with it. Though I might let them do the infrastructure going in and out of those towns.

So say you have one or two stubborn RINO's trying to Shit in the punch bowl by not passing my Federal Property Tax on SFH investors. Then then those States where those pesky Congress critters are from, wont be on the short list for a new City and would lose out on that Tax base.

Liberals would be on board, because they have wanted to grow a base in Red States for years, but those States didn't have large cities that Democrat policies demand.

Why not if you can get away with it? Random fires are massively rare (outside of wildfires). Maybe a gas leak, but even then you'd likely smell it before an explosion. Maybe frying something and using water to try and put out flames.

That's why arson is so easy to detect. Convinced my former boss did it. I had no part in any of it, but had a 3 unit burn. Firefighters injured. Was kind of a mess. Damage wasn't super bad and got $350k above what the building was financed for. He was a shit head.

LA County supervisors block renter protection extensions

Los Angeles County supervisors have voted against measures calling for a rent protection extension and rent control in unincorporated areas.

The Board of Supervisors voted not to support a resolution to extend certain residential tenant protections for one year throughout the county, the Los Angeles Daily News reported.

In a 2-2 vote with one abstention, measures failed to pass that would bar landlords from evicting tenants without just cause as well as protect tenants from eviction who have added extra occupants and/or pets during the coronavirus pandemic.
