The consequences of your ideals would be devastating to people who can't afford to buy their own home. If landlords were forced to be stuck with a tenant for life they would never rent to anyone with marginal credit, marginal employment, marginal education etc etc. The weakest among us would never find a place to live.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-71968174309024130602012-03-16T11:33:36.416-04:002012-03-16T11:33:36.416-04:00These are families, and these are their homes.

Just because it's legal doesn't make it right.bacondevilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15785672595833787380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-4057569337881041702012-03-16T01:06:29.352-04:002012-03-16T01:06:29.352-04:00"If I'm not mistaken, most if not all of ..."If I'm not mistaken, most if not all of these units are under fair market value, which is $2500.

One can deregulate an apartment even if the market rent for the unit is less than $2,500. The $2,500 refers to the legal rent not the market rent.<br /><br />I'm not certain why posters on this blog would try and take away the property rights of the buyer. Property rights are as American as apple pie and if the buyer doesn't want to renew market rate leases he doesn't have to. That's the law. Of course, he must renew stabilized leases and will do so (whether he likes it or not).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-8016357833559949222012-03-16T00:11:12.162-04:002012-03-16T00:11:12.162-04:00Some of the units in these buildings are stabilize...Some of the units in these buildings are stabilized, while other have been destabilized- wether legally or illegally is yet to be determined. I was told by the management company (off the record, of course) that they are preparing to evict 15-17 units, and that the vacancy of these units was actually part of the sales agreement. Despicable. <br /><br />If I'm not mistaken, most if not all of these units are under fair market value, which is $2500. If that is the case, the new landlord is required by law to offer lease renewals. <br /><br />Tenants are in the process of organizing to fight this now. If you are a tenant and are prepared to fight- keep you eyes and ears open- we WILL find you!

They would have to prove that it wasn't your primary residence, that you weren't paying your rent, or claim the popular loophole of "owner occupancy".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-75487187379425697672012-03-15T15:18:36.490-04:002012-03-15T15:18:36.490-04:00I'm such an idiot.
