Sam Cherry Landlords don't need the SBA for the crisis they need Section 8
24 July 2021 | 41 replies
Tenants who have been approved for unemployment are automatically authorized Section 8 vouchers with online verificationAt the end of the year landlords will receive a 1099-MISC for each property for the amount of rent received which is totally subject to depreciation.At the end of the year tenants will receive a 1099-MISC for the amount of rent paid on their behalf and subject to their tax bracket.This can all be set up online, is totally verifiable, and efficient.When you no longer qualify for unemployment, you lose your section 8 and landlords only qualify for rentals that have unemployed tenants and not those with the ability to pay.Again this can all be done online and is simple for both the Landlord and Tenant to understand.It is also the correct way to do it by the Internal Revenue Code.This SBA Loan program is a complete sham and is being run by the BANKS under guise of the DEPT OF TREASURY.I would get a lawyer opinion before I would do this, because not only are you going to go bankrupt you are going to wind up dealing with the bank secrecy act and treasury regulations in addition to the IRC.WARNING LANDLORDS YOU ARE PLAYING WITH FIRE IF YOU GO THIS ROUTE.

Andrey Y. I am offering my tenants a Covid-19 RENT DISCOUNT
5 April 2020 | 61 replies
In fact, I see them as family.While I don't share the same ideology as the Progressive Left that wants to give free rent to EVERY tenant, I firmly believe that if there is free rent to be given, it should only be given through a Means Test where it is verified that the tenant is actually struggling.I am in the best position to determine that.
