William Coet Why Does the Big-Money Invest In Landlord Unfriendly Cities?
30 October 2024 | 35 replies
It goes deeper than that.NYC Liberal policies, including strong tenant protections, increases the risk of failure so much that the risk far outweighs the rewards.Financial ruin is just around the corner for the small Mom and Pop Property Investor that it doesn't make sense for them.The Tenants will have free Attorneys that are bent on delaying eviction cases so long that it stretches into years while Mom and Pop suffer from lack of rental income and still have to pay all the bills and do the management.Additionally, the increase in homeless living rough in the streets due to Sanctuary laws causing a lack of shelter beds, then evicting shelter residents after 30 days creating more homelessness, policies that tie up the Police's ability to arrest perpetrators, etc. only causes Mom and Pop to sell out at large discounts to larger Landlords who are capable to use Economies of Scale to eek out a profit.These larger Landlords will eventually turn a much higher profit as the pendulum will eventually swing towards the middle when the NYC Voting population eventually realizes that it's not a conspiracy of the Rich that's causing the Wealth Gap to increase.It's the same liberal laws that encourage people to become lifelong tenants, small Entrepreneurs (including Property Owners and small Mom and Pop Businesses) to be destroyed, and Rents to rise astronomically as housing becomes scarer even when the population declines by as much as 7% in the last several years.

fair return methodology used must be “concerned with the financial integrity of the businessas a whole, not the ability to obtain a return on a discrete portion of the business.”MNOI presumes that the rents Landlords chose to charge, in a year free fromthe idea of rent control, provided Landlords a fair return on their investment,as the rents that were charged were based on general market conditions, andnot the upward pressure that policy discussions of rent control may have onthe market.
Jimmy Sont Loan Company made a mistake, what to do?
26 October 2024 | 7 replies
Most loan packages include something you sign that says that you will cooperate with them to correct any technical errors like this and I believe it also includes the ability for them to sign for you if you don't but obviously they prefer to have clean paperwork where you have signed it.
