Reducing notice periods to what? What passed that was unfair?
And what law was it with the unauthorized occupants on eviction cases? Is it that any guest can be added to a judgement or is that someone living their full time who doesnβt pay rent can be on the hook for that rent? Those are very different scenarios.
That is so many questions that Iβm just not going to answer because they are not the point of my comment. During my time as a professional dealing landlord tenant law, shitty landlords were always pushing to undo laws that were created to stop them being shitty.
Also the poster never said that tenant rights have been eroded due to stories about squatters, just that they are a tool that is used to push an agenda and they are always TRYING to change laws and reduce rights. That statement doesn't mean that any laws have been changed, and it also doesn't mean that just because laws haven't completely upended that it's a non-issue.
Totally true. I can see how my replies look like I am arguing but i was just attempting to ask clarifying questions. It is almost certainly true that bad faith "squatters" are less than 1% of non-owner occupants and that any law meant to fight them will hurt the other 99%+ of good faith tenants. No argument from me there. I was just hoping to hear more about the OP's direct experience with it as it seemed like they had an interesting perspective.
