Today, on the centennial of the Tulsa Race Massacre, the Biden-Harris Administration is announcing new steps to help narrow the racial wealth gap and reinvest in communities that have been left behind by failed policies. Specifically, the Administration is expanding access to two key wealth-creators – homeownership and small business ownership – in communities of color and disadvantaged communities.

The Administration will:

*Take action to address racial discrimination in the housing market, including by launching a first-of-its-kind interagency effort to address inequity in home appraisals, and conducting rulemaking to aggressively combat housing discrimination.

*Use the federal government’s purchasing power to grow federal contracting with small disadvantaged businesses by 50 percent, translating to an additional $100 billion over five years, and helping more Americans realize their entrepreneurial dreams.

Tulsa Race Massacre what about all the looting, burning, murder, and wanton destruction of our cities over the years especially the last few years by blacks.

More divisive shit from slavemaster democrats.

Yeah, it's all that trickle down like you see in Detroit and Baltimore. All it takes is 200 poor black people to make one black person rich.

I wonder if their brand of "addressing home value inequities" means raising the appraisal values of homes in black neighborhoods or ghettos.

If so, there may be some speculation opportunity.

Although, banks wouldn't want to lend on homes with bogus inflated appraisals, which would make it harder for blacks to get loans. Dems would probably like this, because they could then point the finger at the raycist banks, and gloat with smug satisfaction that "this is another clear example of systemic racism in our financial institutions, preventing blacks from achieving a basic human right - shelter".

They will do what they did the last time. Lower lending standards in the name of "fairness" to perpetuate the housing bubble despite rising interest rates. NINJA loans are back baby! Who will get screwed in the end? The same people they claim they want to help.

Get the popcorn, I've seen this movie before.

Nobody would buy houses from 🇳🇪🇳🇪 because they will know that the appraisal has been inflated.

'Building Black Wealth' is traditionally 'jiving the motherfuckers with promises of free shit until they are even worse off, except their so-called leaders are a lot richer'. I'm sure it will be different this time.

Don't think it was Einstein, but who cares.

Section 8 may be the only safe way to be a landlord in the future. Every other tenant can take advantage of moratoriums preventing eviction and stop paying rent. At least the gov pays the Section 8 landlords directly.

He didn't say it that way, or course. But he did say it.


I know, just having fun.

Actually, I can kinda imagine Einstein saying that. He didn't seem to be all that PC.

Really getting sick of the Tulsa Bullshit.


Tulsa 1921 an armed black mob went to defend a convicted rapist by shooting at an unarmed crowd of white people. When white people retaliated, blacks bitched and moaned about it for 100 years. This is how all the BLM shit will end again, people will get to the point that enough is enough.

Started a while ago. We had a ton of them. It's guaranteed rent dumped into your account. Sometime 100% of the rate, but usually tenant covered 20% or so. Tenant has an incentive to not fuck up because they get free housing. They fuck up, the rug gets pulled out from under them. So they're generally good tenants, though they may still trash the place.

Process is a pain in the ass and a racket. Depends on the inspector, but they will nit pick the shit out of your building. Money talks though and much of the time you can make that go away. A lot of super silly things they look for. If you've got enough units it is worth it, but under 10 and doing it solo it's a pain in the ass. Otherwise, regardless of the rumors, section 8 tenants are some of the best and stay long term. The stigma of it makes landlords not want to deal with it. Which is fine. You can make more from market rate tenants. Just have to screen more thoroughly. Better qualified non-section 8 tenants will eventually move on if they're motivated.
