The City Council just passed an Oakland Eviction Moratorium.

City Council is still a joke though the mayor (despite everyone's complaints) is the best mayor we've had since the 1980s (if not earlier - everybody from 1990 on was bad - I was born in the 1980s so I don't know who the last good mayor was). 

The city council has a strong socialist mentality and is extremely anti-landlord.

2) I'm British so I follow the UK news and have seen articles about the mortgage market coming to a complete standstill: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-52106119 Some providers are no longer offering new loans or asking for a much larger downpayment.

Last night the Mayor signed new Renters protections that the LA City Council passed.

Hopefully this is a 2,3,4 month issue, but they cancelled the British Open, political convention, and I fear the NFL is in real trouble.

Friend of mine has $75k of British Columbia slate in his backyard as a ... wait for it... fire pit area.

In addition, San Diego city council today is looking to cap STRs.
