My family never owned a home. We leased.
I grew up in constant fear of eviction.
No, but it can be rented.
The congressman was asked if his vote could be bought:
I used to brag that I can hold up any eviction - even if the landlord had legal rights, I could hold it up for a year.
Having an awful landlord can be a good thing, it can bring you together as a household.
Hundreds of data-mining companies sell landlords tenant-screening reports that list past evictions and court filings.
I can pay my rent now. I guess I could always do that, but now I can get an apartment with heat.
An eviction is an incredibly time consuming and stressful event.
Most cities don't have a just cause eviction law. Most allow no cause evictions, as well as evictions for nonpayment.
The thing about that singles apartment is you never had to clean it up... until the day you got the security deposit back. You're arguing with the landlord... 'No sir, the back door was missing when we moved in here! The pizzas were always on the ceiling!'
