    Breach of Lease, abandonment during Covid

    Company office is in nearby city with plenty of parking. In a week or two will know for sure what is going on. Been thru this before but not with COVID and Executive Orders from the governor and CDC. Forget about Trump his concern is that he has to flush the toilet 15 times. LOL This rental...

    Breach of Lease, abandonment during Covid

    Yes the utilities are in his name and still on. Steps I took so far is to collect due rent. Guy is a hothead and got into a shoving match with other tenant in the building a few months ago. I let that go but now this I wont tolerate. Soon NY will be like MA and courts will accept eviction...

    Breach of Lease, abandonment during Covid

    Sadly to say think you are right. Thing is when someone leaves of their free will there should be something you could do to gain possesion. Covid makes things complicated.

    Breach of Lease, abandonment during Covid

    NY has been very vague about abandonment even before Covid. Now Covid made the governor here go crazy with his executive order and now we have CDC at the fed level with their guidelines. Thats why Im here asking this question.

    What is the name of your state? NY Ive been trying to find a NYS law regarding abandonment and non-payment during Covid. In my Lease Agreement it states : “If Tenant leaves said premises unoccupied for 15 days while rent is due and unpaid, Landlord is granted the right hereunder to take...

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    Finally its happening, landlords are going to courts, claiming that the national eviction moratorium unfairly strains their finances and violates their property rights. At least 26 such lawsuits have been filed by property owners this year, including several federal challenges of President...

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    My point on all of this is that the government should be helping the renter and not putting the financial burden on the landlord. Let the government lend money to the renter so he can stay up to date with his rent payments then do their own collections.

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    As a Landlord I'm running the business to make money not give it away. Taking out a loan is not the answer it just puts you deeper in the hole. Here in NY its very difficult to collect on back rent. Even debt collection agencies don't want to pursue back rent cases. The court just grants...

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    My tenants are paid up to date so far due to careful screening. I have no mortgages to pay but you have to anticipate the worst case scenario. Gov Cuomo made our eviction for non payment more lengthy as well. Talk is the eviction moratorium will be extended till end of this year.

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    Gov Cuomo(NY) keeps extending the moratorium. It just pisses me off that the government is putting the financial burden on the Landlord. They should set up a rent fund for tenants affected by Covid and do their own collection on the dead beats. I swear these politicians are clueless to reality

    Covid-19 how to deal with non-paying tenats

    NY So it seems a lot of states have shifted the responsibility from DSS to the Landlord during this Covid-19 pandemic. Lets face it even though the tenants accrue past due rent the chance of payment to the landlord is nil. I am not running a charity here and have to pay my own bills meanwhile...
