The Tightening Against Landlords Continues

February 1, 2021 by Kevin

Back in July, I wrote that the slew of new regulations and restrictions against landlords would likely never go away. History shows that once the ratchet is tightened, it is never loosened completely. Some of the headlines from Maine to California seem to be proving my predictions correct.

Landlord-tenant laws in Virginia spurred on by covid could be come permanent.

Minneapolis to consider rent control.

Rent control pushed in Maine.

Eviction bans in San Jose.

Eviction bans state wide in California.

Learning how to screen your tenants and work with them is going to be more important than ever in the coming months and years. It is going to get ugly in some places. Stay tuned and seek out folks with common ground.
