I had a neighbor moved into an apartment in my building. Criminal record for abduction and drugs. Whilst he was there he was dealing, communal bits were damaged, vandalised and stolen. He was then put away for a while for kicking a puppy to death. The council kept his tenancy open and he moved back in after release. Drug dealing continued, all sorts coming in. Then one day he fled, leaving his pot plants and samurai swords in the reception. Next I saw he got 14 years for the rape and false imprisonment of a vulnerable young woman in her own home. I know where I stand on this issue.i
Most of these people cannot and do not change, esp the sexual deviants and junkies because they are coddled by govt agencies and esp non-profits who would not have jobs if it weren't for these law breaking, dysfunctional people.
How he get a 🐶?
@@MbisonBalrogYou don't have to "get a dog" to kick a dog to death.
Isn't that the problem with the world? One person or a single experience by one bad actor ruining it for everyone else?
@@DCEntropy well there aren’t too many strays around either. Did he manage break into someone home that happen to have puppy for him to kick?
NYC is so dystopian it's crazy. How about those proponents of this change have them as neighbours first
This far left woke or whatever you call it is basically the new religion. They love to preach and judge but they do not live by their own dogma.
All I can say is get out of NYC now.
@@MayWhite-bz7xl people that voted for these democrat politicians should stay.
Like Martha’s Vineyard? Lmao
Real life Gotham City
If the city wants to make it easier for criminals to get housing, why not start halfway housing programs? 1. Only take ex cons. 2. Have several rules in the housing. 3. Have cameras and drug testing. 4. Have contact with parole officers. 5. Provide references to other housing based on behavior of tenants.
I'm pretty sure that already exists
@@marquiseh5128 then maybe build more of them instead of forcing ex-convicts on other buildings. Yes, some ex-cons may have changed their values and want to live a clean life but then, a lot of them resort to living the same life they have known for years so it is hard to break the habit, esp. those with mental health and drug issues.

Janet, NYC is killing itself like a game of Jenga. Only that NYC is the Jenga tower and every brick removed is a failed policy.
So “everyone deserves a second chance,” but the government isn’t willing to take the risk themselves to give them one. They are happy to force private citizens to take that risk, though. I wonder how many of the “advocates” are willing to love amongst convicted criminals themselves?
None of them. You ought to know the policy of White liberals. They are all for it, just so long as it's in someone else's neighborhood.
I was a landlord in Florida for 25 years and I have had my fair share of bad tenants. If I was not allowed to do a background check then I would not use a rental agency and rent the apartment out myself. I would use word of mouth to get excellent tenants and even charge a few hundred less if I knew they were going to be good renters. In the long run this new law will only make it more difficult for potential renters to find apartments because landlords will find a way to work around it.
Especially for landlord in south Florida 😂 Jesus
as they should. They should be about protecting the other tenants and their property. Those advocates should be forced to house ex-cons themselves since they trust them so much.
Not with all that google spying that goes around nowadays.
You should have the right to investigate anyone who is going to be living in your home.
Thats racist
@EddyTheLion No , it not. It is safety, protection and security for yourself and your family against criminals' crimes potential future criminal misdeeds resulted from criminals with criminal records moving in or already living there for which will majoritory factor into decision if yourself decide to stay or move out or to move in or not with well informed acknowledgement beforehand for your own safety , security and protection of living with known criminals with criminal records. I would not want nor willingly to live near sexual predators with criminal records as victim myself. It would have majority factor in my own decision to live there or not that I do rightfully deserve to know beforehand for renting because I have right to receive and feel secured, protected and safe within my own home. Criminals has loss huge part of regular privacy rights towards privacy rights of everyday citizens after their crimes and public criminal records compared to honest upstanding citizens without criminal records in life. Lawbiding citizens deserves to know if they have criminals living near themselves when comes to their own safety, security and protection in making majority decisions for themselves on where they will live and rent. Especially if you factor in people's vulnerable minor age children into renting apartments that needs beforehand acknowledgment of criminals when comes to their own safety , security and protection reasons towards known criminals with criminal history records that also includes sexual predators who has potential to live within apartments that is hidden from other current tenants and potential future tenants who rightfully deserves to know truth to majority factor into their decisions to live there or not. Only yourself had brought in racists factor that is not even issue factor when comes to safety , security and protection rightful reasons to have deservingly prior acknowledgement of criminal history records because criminals with criminal history records factually proven comes from all races altogether. Honest lawbiding people especially with vulnerable minor age children have most definitely deserving rights to majority factor in if there are criminals with criminal history records living in potential place you are deciding to live and rent there for their own rightful security, safety and protection from potential future crimes being committed by say criminals with criminal history records such as sexual predators who might be living there. It is only about rights to rightfully know about potential future harm towards one's own safety, security and protection when comes with potential criminals with criminal history records such as sexual predators that would be living beside yourselves to majority factor in if you decide to live there or not.
@@EddyTheLionhow?
How so is it racist? I didn't hear anyone say anything about skin color, or are you insinuating some other form of racism?
I think @EddyTheLion is being facetious. Only the extreme fringes would insinuate this has anything to do about race. He's just inviting others to attack a strawman.
Imagine trying to get a roommate and not being able to run a background check on them. This will make it impossible for anyone to find housing in the city when there’s already a limited number of apartments available. This is going to turn into a very dangerous situation for people having roommates and for people in apartment buildings.
Ah! You mean like how we did in the 80s and 90s?
You don't "happen" to have a criminal record. You earn one. Actions have consequences, people not trusting you anymore is one of them.
Sometimes ppl are too poor to pay bond, and they take plea deals to get out of jail, you’re guilty until you can prove yourself innocent…some could beat the case, but lawyers cost etc… so these ppl should not only do the time for whatever charge, they should be penalized for it for the rest of their lives 😂😂😭🤦🏻♀️ cause that makes sense 😂😭😂😭🤦🏻♀️
@@tommiehorton2298 Ok groomer
@@vincelemaireThat doesn’t even make sense. That can’t be your response to every comment. 😂
The thing is that not everyone with a criminal record chose that. There are people who have criminal records because they were wrongly accused of something they didn’t do, or because they were forced into criminal behavior do too things they couldn’t control like homelessness or personal needs like food and water. There are some really messed up people in the world but not everyone who has done something illegal or has a record did that out of choice. Then you have people who are young. Teenagers and people in their 20s. If you did something illegal when you were 19 and that got you a record then it shouldn’t ruin the rest of your life. Teens and young adults do stupid stuff all the time and sometimes that includes criminal activity. No im not saying that if you went and murdered 50 people you should be exempt. But if you graffitied a wall or stole some energy drinks in your late teens, that shouldn’t ruin your whole life just because you were young and stupid.
@@The_hot_blue_fire_guy Exactly. Plus even with habitual criminals, when you don’t give people the chance to change or have opportunities, it’s hard for them to escape a life of crime.
We have a ex-convict now living in our building. He has been a NIGHTMARE since day one.
Do not let this happen to you. Fight for the sanity and safety of your family.
What has he done? I'm curious
Yea you kinda just sound like your lying you don't even know what this ex convict did and you didn't say what he was doing
But is he a nighmare because he is an ex-convict? Perhaps the focus should shift from being able to evict nightmare tenants instead of not allowing 2 million people to access housing.
Yes!!!Ur home is supposed to be ur happy place…why I don’t make friends with my neighbors,cordial yes,but friends are too much it could go south & I can’t take that chance
What happened?
My Dad once rented a room out to a woman who had a criminal past because he wanted to help her out and give her a second chance. This woman used to bring all kinds of questionable characters into our house, and one day, a fight broke out between two men in her room; one man stabbed the other in the back with a kitchen knife. If this law passes, NYC will become even more dangerous to live in; this is the worst way to handle the homeless crisis.
Oooooh questionable...I think your attitude is questionable
I believe in second chances. But not 3rd 4th or 5th chances.
I agree. Outside of banning discrimination based on federally protected classes, such as race or gender, the government has no business telling a landlord who they can and can't do business with. Less government is almost always better.
You wonder what will happen as criminals move in and full paying renters move out. I will personally never visit NY, San Francisco or Chicago again.
But that has nothing to do with HER criminal record. Anyone is capable of having friends who commit crimes.
I love how people think being a landlord is like having a free money spigot. It's gotta be one of the most risky anxiety-inducing things you can get involved in. Plus now you have the government telling you who you can and can't rent to, which means you're more like the custodian of a government-controlled property than the owner. This stuff is unbelievable.
As a former property manager, I second this!
This is the reason I've never bought an apartment despite being able to afford it. Renting is so much less stressful.
yeah lol pricing a studio apartment at 4--6k a month is totally not robbery bro. These poor landlords have to survive on catfood because their greedy tenants dont tip.
@@albdude1144 Unless the cost of repair goes up, unless property value goes down (e.g. because of a criminal tenant attracting other criminals to the area), unless it catches fire and the insurance company refuses to cover the entire cost (inc. the opportunity cost of not being able to lease it for a period of time) etc etc.
And finding a tenant, and then dealing with them and their problems, can be time-consuming and stressful. Maintenance can be a pain as well.
@@VVayVVard Yeah poor landlords having to deal with tenants, having to work an honest day’s work is too much.
I love this new side of Cash Jordan. Cash has become politically active and he fights for the little guy. He sees through people. The first tier of survival is to take care of yourself. Cash became a real estate agent and then he carved out a profitable niche with his videos. Good for him! Not only does Cash make enough money to take care of himself but he makes enough money to take care of his family. In an outrageously expensive place as NYC, this is an accomplishment! For most people, if they stopped here and lived their lives under the radar, it would be honorable enough. Cash doesn't stop here though. He sees the iniquities and injustices around him and he's using his platform to speak up about it and hopefully cause change. I'm besides myself. Cash Jordan and all of us socially conscious people have to join together. The rich and entitled look down upon us and mock our feeble attempts for change. They've got the law, money, and power on their side. Let's stand strong together. Three cheers for Cash Jordan!
Indeed
Oh yes, this is perfect for him when you start blaming others, make innuendos agsinst groups of people its a perfect plan. Remember, hate sells
Fighting for the little guy, like landlords and people who hate immigrants. LMFAO. you're propagandized
I know someone who owns a six family home in Williamsburg. He has chosen to keep 5 of those apartments empty because of past awful tenants. After spending thousands of dollars fixing damages and being scammed out of thousands of dollars in rent, he took his building off the market. This program is the cities way of pushing real problems behind closed doors so that they can claim that they've solved the problem. Two of the biggest reasons crime continues are substance abuse and mental illness. Until these issues are addressed in a real way, crime will continue. The cities fix is basically out of sight out of mind. This will not actually help anyone long term.
stopping crime means stop electing the same ones over and over and charge parents with child endangerment
Precisely, maybe those homeless rights’ advocates mentioned in the video should focus on encouraging the government to build government-subsidized rehabilitation facilities that have all the social services said criminals (or reformed criminals) need in one place to stay on the straight and narrow, conveniently located next to their government-subsidized rental apartments.
Partly agree.
The best thing would be if everyone only owned the place they themselves lived in. Then no one would worry about who to rent to because there would be no landlords. 😊.
@@honeyrococoif only it was affordable. I even seen a couple of apartments listed as “condos”
If its legal to run backgroun checks for a job, then its legal for to run it before moving someone into your property. doing it for one can't be discrimation while the other is okay.
Its not illegal to do background checks where I am, Next to NY but so many companies stopped doing it because people stopped applying. It may lead to some issues but I haven't seen any yet. Allowed me to get a better job.
Thats coming next
Remember the rules only change if it benefits the government
Seems to me that people do not know, or forgot the definition of the word "discriminate". It means to differentiate, or distinguish. Yes, I want to distinguish someone who has been convicted of a crime from someone who has not. Idiotic to think that the word discriminate has a bad connotation without context.
Here's a newsflash for ya buddy. It's ILLEGAL for employers to discriminate on people based on criminal background for a majority of jobs. The only jobs that technically hinge off of criminal history are usually jobs that coincide with allowances to particular criminal acts, so for example felons being unable to bear firearms are obvious disbarred from getting a job as a cop, or even private armed guard cause.... obviously they can't be allowed firearms. But even that is a point of contraversy that's being slowly chipped away at since there are felons with clean records who are denied the ability to vote or protect themselves or other things. It's a stonewalling that calls in our ability to call something Justice, safe, or fair.
So whatever your talking about background checks you mean CURRENT- they are doing background checks to check if the person has current criminal activity like warrants, outstanding tickets, etc NOT so they can disbar them based off past events or atleast thats what their legally supposed to be used for. I know, i've worked management, i've done the searches- I work in security, we do it for our guards constantly.
I appreciate how you’ve inserted aspects of social commentary into your original concept of what the housing market looks like, at least in New York City. There are countless layers to the lack of affordable housing for working New Yorkers, especially us lifers.
Just another way to keep people living in fear. The same thing happened where I live in government housing. Some dude moved in a few months ago and every window in his place is broken. He has a girlfriend who stays with him most nights and he beats her. She calls the cops but he's back the next day. The cops are here at least twice a week. I'm afraid all the time because he knocks on doors asking to borrow stuff. He's dangerous and nothing has been done.
Nothing will get done the world is just going to get worse your best bet is to move away but probably you will get it somewhere else so cant win
Cash, you are literally a documentary film maker at this point. Thank you for your top notch reporting. Keep up the great work
and you're literally an idiot for typing common knowledge
Film Maker??? It’s a mobile phone camera with a video option …
Who cares how he does it? Cash's vids do a better job of investigative reporting than big media, and he's careful to present both sides of current issues unlike big media. Cash, it's a just a question of time before something big comes of your work as you so represent current concerns and issues for average New Yorkers!
"How'd you become a short-subject video journalist, Cash?"
"I had some time between apartment showings. And then I had a lot of time between apartment showings. I needed content for my TH-cam channel, y'know?"
@@bonemar66 I'm glad the apartment he showed today had a sink sprayer. You know how much Cash loves a sink sprayer
Imagine how scared people will be. Even if they know they have a serial killer living in their building and they can't do anything about it LEGALLY. It's screw up when the law protects criminals more than it does innocent citizens.
This combined with the overall soft on crime stance is a recipe for disaster.
Imagine they still vote woke, liberal, and Democrats.
I COMPLETELY AGREE@@wafflecone_wombatdrone
When you elect criminals in places like NYC, don't be surprised when they represent criminals
I'm pretty sure that convicted serial killers are not ever let out on parole.😂
So, basically New York is saying you don't really own your property. But still pay us taxes for "owning" your property.
The gov't needs to stop meddling in landlord's business. If they want to house criminals then gov't housing should be doing it and not private citizens.
My favorite economics professor in college used to have two sayings that have really stuck with me - "It was a beautiful theory mugged by an ugly gang of facts." and "It's never a gift. It's always a shift.". Both of them seem applicable to this empty headed idea.
I mean if anything its probably closer to the other way round. In theory it sounds bad to let criminals into buildings but statistics are quite clear that its an important step in stopping people reoffending.
@@aquilamflammeus5569 the funny thing about statistics is nobody actually cares about the positive outcome when there is a chance they could be part of the negative. 75% success rate translates to a 1 in 4 risk.
So lets see. People who are convicted of crimes are legally discriminated against in their search for good paying jobs and places to live. Despite this we are supposed to demand they never commit another crime. That's some kind of magical thinking you have going on.
@@yankees7448 So lets see. People who have clean criminal records and a right to live, safe, unmolested, and without fear are prevented by law from protecting themselves from convicts with proven criminal records, including violent crimes, thefts, murders, and s@xual assaults. Instead they are legally required to be made into a potential victim pool inside of their own homes. That's some amazingly privileged "logic" you're displaying there.
@@taylorlibby7642 You are ok with keeping them out of good paying jobs. You are ok with discriminating against them from getting housing. So how in the hell do you expect them to stay out of prison.
You talk about my priviledged logic but I am 100% sure you're one of those snowflakes who complain about homelessness while think its perfectly reasonable to discriminate against people who just want a home. Maybe you should live in a cabin in the woods. Being around people doesn't sound like a thing you're capable of.
My sister lives in NYC and uses an app to track crimes. You wouldn't believe how the map lit up when she filtered to registered sex offenders. There's at least 20 of them within 2 blocks from her.
Idk what's up with this place but with the immigration crisis and now this, it's like they're running to be the worst place to live.
I'm not saying your sister isn't surrounded by actual sex offenders, but is it still the case that people can get charged as sex offenders for public urination? I haven't been to NYC in many years, but much of the city used to smell like urine and there were very few public bathrooms. Just because someone is a registered sex offender doesn't automatically mean there's any chance that they'd grab your sister as she's walking down the street and drag her into an alley. Their actual crime may be something that doesn't pose any threat at all to your sister, even if they were going to do it again. I believe there are also cases where two minors who had consensual sex with each other both got charged with statutory rape and registered as sex offenders. It's hard to take "sex offender" seriously without knowing what the person actually did and how much time they spent in prison for it.
What app please?
All cities have plenty of registered sex offenders. and a city with 8 million people in such a small area is bound to have plenty. Welcome to the real world.
@@youtubeuser1052 Bro is on a crusade to defend the registered sex offenders
@@youtubeuser1052 if you're her do you want to take the risk tho
$3300/mo is hardly "affordable" Geez Louise, I'm from Brooklyn now in AZ my mouth really flies wide when I see what's going on w rent in NY... absolutely insane.
Cash, I'd love to see you present apartments that a lower income family could afford. You've shown a ton of places that have the same upgraded kitchen, upgraded bathroom, etc. But what about regular folk? What do those apartments look like and cost? Thanks.
There aren't any. Really, I don't think there are. I think those get snapped up immediatly and the person never leaves. And the last video I saw from Cash said that there are thousands and thousands of apartments that landlords are not renting because the rent cap means they'd lose money renting it.
Greetings, Sue! I currently rent a 2br apt in a 5-plex for $550/mo. It would house a family of four comfortably. The neighbors are quiet, and so is the village we are in. Yes, I said village - a rural town in Missouri with a population of less than 500. It's beautiful here, and if you like out-door fun, this is the place to be. People are actually nice here, as well as kind and helpful.
Glad to hear the application fee for rentals is now null. Back in the early 1990s, there was an apartment rental agency (and I’m sure they weren’t the only ones) in the Lower East Side who would advertise apartments at great rates. The catch was the $75 application / credit check fee. I recall looking at one amazing place and was ready to apply when I saw a person in line ahead of me submit their application and it was put on top of a 1.5 foot high stack of other applications for the very same apartment. I went back into the building and hung out in the hallways until I bumped into residents coming/going. I asked them if they knew how long the apartment had been vacant and they said over 2 years. The agency had no intention of renting it out; they made more money collecting application fees on it.
wow that's crazy
That's criminal!😮
Sad and criminal. They have been doing that for decades, in Texas as well.
Those scum bags should be sent to PRISON for that!
They do that in Arkansas on a larger scale. They publish a list of rentals once a week/month. They charge for each period of time then the buyer gets so many. Most homes on the list are no longer available.
That's a terrible idea. Landlords need to have tools/options for preventing criminal activity on their property and renters need to feel safe.
plus also protect their property as well, repeat offenders are more likely to trash an apartment and leave them having to pay for repairs etc

I love how you're giving us social commentary, while showing us a potential apartment we could rent! Plus, there might be a free roll of toilet paper in the apartment if we were to rent it.
It's pretty easy to find criminal information on someone without running a formal background check. A background check is just easier for a landlord because they can get a fast, easy answer at one place.
I live in NYC. I pay a lot of rent. I don't want a neighbor who's a convicted criminal living next door to me. I shouldn't have to be afraid everyday in my apartment or be worried they're going to break-in the second I leave. NYC wants to take away my rights. So, they can give rights to the criminals. That's absurd.
NYC is fictional. You learned how to lie about where human slaves are right?
@AtoZandba , Do you really think that's the only crime people are convicted of ? I'm suppose to ignore people who have committed hate crimes, robberies, assaults, (grapes), arson, narcotic dealers and a bunch of other crimes ? Your comment doesn't even make sense. Children who are violated, get violated by someone they know, someone their related to, someone they live with, school employees, religious institutions they attend. Stop being under the delusion it's being committed by strangers. The person violating the minor has to have continuous (unsupervised) access to the minor. "Strangers" don't have regular access to your children. Stop being ridiculous.
u should just move out to another state or city the fact u acknowledge already u pay too much!
@@magicworld3242bro live in the damn forest if you’re so afraid to live next to people 😂 you choose your own house you don’t get to decide others just cause you wanna live there you selfish brat
Not to mention the people he/she associates with (along with THEIR friends) who may visit or stay with this tenant in that apartment.
As a private landlord who self-manages my properties, the thought of non profits and watch dog groups wasting my time and tax money to try and catch me doing something they don’t like pisses me off! I treat all applicants the same and anyone who’s rejected gets the same reason; ‘it’s been rented’. The way it’s going, I imagine landlords will stop advertising vacancies conventionally and will get their qualified tenants through word of mouth.
How do I deal with a slumlord that sexually seduce my mother when im not in the apt to cause division between me and my mom which I protect in a narcissistic neighborhood? I have a ton of proof.....when we moved here they tried setting us up to look like bad people in "their community" by playing garbage next to a tenants apt to make it look like me or my mother did it but I have it on video of who did it and proved them wrong which they try harder to spite us knowing they know I am on to their criminal acts towards me and my mother who are the most respectful and outstanding people in the building and probably the whole neighborhood.
That what realtors are for really. Brokers will stop using StreetEasy and tell agents to pound pavement for clients.
@@MbisonBalrogexactly you already need a broker in places like Boston to even been considered for nice places. Now theyll just ask for a years rent upfront too to move in
Exactly! I used to be a landlord and I did a better job of screening applicants than a realtor did.
This is absolutely what will happen. And/Or more mom-and-pop and corporate landlords will take residential rental units off the market entirely, which will further reduce housing stock. I suspect the most practical long-term solution is increasing housing stock.
Imagine this: Potential tenant has a record of running drug labs out of any establishment they've ever lived in. Now they want to move in to your apartment. Look at the devastation drug labs have on property value AND the potential risks if say, a meth lab, were to explode. Could be catastrophic in such a building! I can understand when someone has a simple conviction of possession with intent and spent a few months to maybe a couple years behind bars. Landlords should have every right to verify if these potential tenants will be a positive or negative to their building and fellow tenants and if they will even be able to afford to live in the building.
There are so many bias against the landlords it's unbelievable! So those groups that go out to find landlords that discriminate...they are advocacy groups for renters... of course they will find issues! They are hired to produce results, results that there are corrupted landlords! They need that to keep their jobs so they will find something because they want to!
They have been doing this since the 80's. They use to call it stearing.
politicians consider all landlords as Rich people, who are stealing homes from others, so anything they do to punish them is morally acceptable.
If they made it easier to evict people when there are legitimate problems, then it wouldn't be such a risk to give someone a chance
Good tenants suffer too when your neighbor is a thief or even worse.

Fantastic neighbors❗️👈🤮
Who’s this gonna hurt the most? The little guy is who. Criminals won’t be living in the most expensive apartments, they’ll be with the people who are already just trying to make ends meet.
If it was a violent crime then yes they should not be able to get the apartment but if something happened like 10 years ago and this person hasn't had any problem since then they should be able to get the apartment. If a person has a felony and it had no violence in it at all they should not be discriminated. I'm glad to see this. Everybody does deserve a second chance but at the same time it does depend on what happened. And no sex offender should ever be able to live near anybody. That I do agree with.
Especially if there are ANY offences in ANY way against a child !!!!
“No sex offender should ever be allowed to live near anybody.” 1) What is near? Assuming that it is over 100 yards, how are you going to do this when there are many? 2) NYC is doing what it is doing because there are so many. 3) You have to let sex offenders (and other offenders) live somewhere (unless you kill them). Where is that?
Government is trying to do what everyone else is doing; trying to make a problem someone else’s problem.
This is disgusting. If I am looking at renting a place, I want them to do a background check on me and everyone else. If you have a criminal record, especially one involving violence or harm to others, it's perfectly sensible that almost nobody wants you as their neighbor.
Ain saying everybody good ain saying everybody bad but just because someone has record that mean they should homeless or better yet let’s put all the criminals in one place but thats already going on as we speaks but keep that ppl change and prison defines nobody Shidd would u be mad if Martha Stewart live next door to knowing she been to prison and is in fact a felon
@@TezOmerta Well she is a felon, and has proven herself a criminal liar and thief by fraud, but her offenses were nonviolent, so what am I going to worry about, that she might sneak over and decoupage my Halloween pumpkins, or convert my mailbox into a cozy little birdhouse?
Not that I'd have to worry much about her becoming my neighbor anyway, she's worth about a half a billion dollars, so I kind of doubt she will be moving in anywhere that I can afford to live any time soon. And if she decides to commit another crime, I don't think I have enough wealth to be a worthwhile target for her anyway. 😸
Then don't do horrible things to other people. Most crimes are crimes for a reason.
@ninjacats1647 your attitude about people is a crime you Karen.
@apefrica I don't love to throw stones at others. In fact, I am a strict pacifist who holds a personal principle of not committing any level of violence against anybody, unless defending myself or another against an act of physical aggression. I'm not religious, so I can't say much about sinfulness, only that I have made it a point my whole life to exercise the self control required not to harm other people. It doesn't require that much restraint, and I don't care about feeling like I'm better or superior, I just think that's an important choice to make, and it's a choice I made well before reaching adulthood. The fact that most people make that same choice, is the only way we can live in anything we can rightly call a civilization, such that one can dare to go out in public without the constant fear of being victimized by someone who hasn't made that choice.
I am no fan of laws against victimless crimes, like drug use... if those are your only crimes, it wouldn't bother me one bit to have you as a neighbor. And I am no landlord, but I can hardly blame them for not wanting tenants who have demonstrated a willingness to commit crimes against other people. They probably feel an obligation to protect themselves and their other tenants against those who have chosen to do so, and there is nothing unreasonable about that. There are landlords who do background checks, but who still can and do exercise some discretion in allowing someone with a criminal record in the past, depending on the situation. I am not some heartless stone thrower who believes someone should be condemned forever because of their past poor choices. But I am not anxious to have someone with a violent past live next door to me either, for reasons that shouldn't be that hard to understand. Most people are nonviolent by nature or by choice, but there are others who are not.
New York:"Let's punish landlords who try to protect their tenants from crominals."
How about, government telling the tenants, they dont have to pay. Then tell the landlords. But you do or we will go after you!
And people are born into different situations in life and you have no idea what people have been through. So don't say it's their fault for not doing something aboutit

I must have missed the part of the video that said that NYC government will indemnify landlords from tenant lawsuits stemming from any
criminal behavior of ex-con tenants who they were forced to rent to.
It was in there.
There are just soooo many issues with this. What if they are sex offenders? They can't be within so many meters of school? There are federal employees in NYC who are not allowed to associate with felons, this could cost someone their job if their neighbor is a felon especially if they don't report knowing a felon on their security paperwork because they don't know. As a victim of sexual assault I am appalled by this. I can only imagine how parents with children feel especially single moms. I have a feeling if this happens a lot of people are going to be buying protection dogs and guns which also creates issues. People should be able to feel safe in their own home.
In a previous video you showed us they are decreasing the number of cops in NY. Now they will be bringing convicts to live side by side with the regular population. You do the math: more convicts plus less cops equals more crime. The irrationality of this idea forces me to think of nothing but a sinister plan.
I can't refrain from congratulating you for the success of your video about NY blocking the arrival of asylum seekers. It was an exhilarating experience to watch the number of views as I watched the video!!! Great job man!!!
EX/FORMER convicts dummy. Also, MORE POVERTY = MORE CRIME.
I think the elites plan is depopulation ,
more convicts plus less cops is part of the democratic plan. we are not safe anymore in NYC and other democratic cities across america.
You get what you vote for I guess.
@@CaptRRyour votes don't matter.
I can tell you the worst part isn't taking a gamble on whether a tenant is good or not. The worst part is the only recourse for landlords when dealing with a bad tenant is the court system and it is currently a broken joke. Hell, even NYPD will not get involved if the incident is a "civil matter" that they think should be resolved in court. And we're talking years of delay and absurd costs that will never be recouped from people who potentially do nothing but take advantage of society.
US/UK/CANADA & ALOT WESTERN COUNTRY LAW SYSTEMS & LAWMAKERS, D.A & CONGRESS, MAYORS, JUDGES TEAM COURT WILL NOT GIVE THUGS & CRIMINALS HARD PUNISHMENT!!

The smart way to do this would be to limit how far back they can go on criminal checks like 7 or 10 years
In nyc, most people who are disruptive tenants do not have a criminal record. Where are people supposed to live after incarceration? They are more likely to recommit if they are not properly transitioned back into society as you mentioned. You make a great point talking abt types of crimes though!
Crazy how my building just started accepting this and I’ve seen new people moving in. Last week someone was trying to force my door open in my apartment in queens ny and that part of queens is so peaceful, now it’s going to get ruined.
You need to move to a buiding that charges higher rent, if you can. Most felons cannot afford a really nice apartment, in a high end neighborhood. If that won't work, consider a roommate, where you can split the higher cost of living or move out of NYC.

@@essentialadvantages6790 Kew Gardens which really surprised me
I can understand a landlord not wanting certain people renting their property. Is it right, not really, since the person could be completely rehabilitated and never commit another crime, but does someone renting want to take that chance - probably not. My mother had a 3-family home in the Bronx and wanted to rent out the bottom apartment. She thought she found the perfect tenant, a single woman with a good job, but once that single woman got a boyfriend everything went downhill. They'd play music into the morning hours. It was so loud everyone heard it so she asked her tenant not to play the music past a certain time, but that didn't work, the music played on. It finally got so bad that my mother asked her to move out. She moved out but not before doing damage to not only the bathroom, but the flooring. It cost my mother thousands to have it all fixed and she then decided not to rent the space, she was afraid it might happen again.
Something similar happened to my friends mom. She rented out the top upstairs apartment to her relatives. The damage wasn’t too bad but they stopped paying rent. The relatives ended up being forced to leave and left the place a mess.
Bonus, they left bottles and jars with dolls in them. My friend suspects it was part of some Santeria ritual. I don’t think it was Santeria but it was probably some other hokey witchcraft
While I can sympathize with someone who has a criminal record but is completely rehabilitated, no rehab can erase the fact that a crime was committed and someone was harmed. Our actions have consequences no matter how many pardons, dispensations, annulments or other forgiving acts have been issued. You cannot unring that bell. A personal interview might convince a landlord that you will be a model tenant, but don't blame him if he is skeptical.
@@Bobrogers99Agreed, to many policies these days that bail out adults. For example, people getting loans forgiven. Your the one who took out the Fkn loan, why are other adults bailing out adults? I’m tired of this crap.
Ur story has literally nothing to do with the story. If your mother is a landlord, she is taking a monetary risk when doing this. It's absurd u want us to feel pity when you're extracting the wealth of a single mother so she can have a roof over her head. Have some fucking shame.
When you get constantly rewarded for doing the wrong things you wonder why anyone would bother doing anything right.🤷♂️
I was renting room and this woman walked all the day from downtown in flipflops. She didnt mind anything. I realized later she planned to invite her also homeless criminal boyfriend once she got the room. Suffice to say, I never rented her the room.
NY landlords: We normally charge $2500 for this shoe box but we’re giving you half off if you room up with your opps 😂
As a property owner, you would think they would have the right to say who is living in their building. Would it not set them up for lawsuits?
You'd think so, but NYC isn't an american city. it's more communist than anything else.
Right? Since when are criminals a protected class?
@@JF098 EXACTLY! ONLY IN A DEMOCRAT RUN SOCIETY where they believe in Unicorns and Fairy Farts!
we own three rental properties and our policy has always been no lease without a perfect credit score. it has served us well.
Indeed, one's credit score is typically the best measure to determine if the individual will pay the rent on time. I say this because, most people with stellar credit 800+ are responsible with respect to paying bills, which is why they have an 800+ credit score. These type of people would leave your rental if they lost their job or source of income, and work out a payment plan with the landlord, rather than stay in the apartment and end up with an eviction.
makes perfect sense, i am sure this will attract many quality tenants into NYC who don't mind living next to felons...
As a life long renter things are bad enough as is in the renting scene...
If a predator is being given special treatment that deflects right back at the landlords and the law something is clearly wrong...
THIS. IS. DISGUSTING!!!!
They really don’t care about the people. Why not create an apartment complex for former offenders?
Yea this sounds like a better idea
Home invasion is in your future
Because criminals don’t want to live in such a dangerous place
Why don't you? No, I am not being sarcastic, why don't you do that? If its a good idea I am sure you can a get a few investors together and get into this untapped market.
Or maybe, criminals even former ones tend to criminal things at a higher rate than the base population, and make not only their living situation, but everyone else's around them situation bad as well. Especially in an small enclosed building.
@@CaptRR I’m not the government that promised to take care of its citizens. Why don’t YOU?!
Banning background checks for renters is a very bad and I used to be a landlord. No matter how hard I tried to screen renters I can't tell you how many bad renters I had to deal with. I tell anyone who asks me about rental property to not do it it's not worth it!! (Unless you can afford someone else to manage the property).
I was a landlord in Florida for 25 years and I had my fair share of bad tenants too. I did a better job of screening tenants than the rental company for sure. I sold my last rental house just as the pandemic started. I can't imagine being a landlord during the pandemic when tenants did not have to pay rent for a couple of years! I would never suggest someone to be a landlord. You are better off buying gold or investing in a CD/money market acct.
My worst tenant was a college professor and his insurance agent wife. They were always late on the rent and they moved out in the middle of the night and took every inside door in the house. They also never reported a small leak in the kitchen so I had to replace the entire kitchen because the cabinets were rotted! They moved to another state and had the nerve to call me to ask for their deposit back!
@@lisagardner903 I agree with you!
In the apartment building I live in the Bronx, a first floor tenant had a crazy girlfriend break all his six ground floor windows (after they broke up and he kicked her out). The owner fixed all the windows, and then the girlfriend came back and smashed two of them. Sometimes it's not the tenant that is the problem, but who they associate with or circumstances.
Who is paying these ppl’s rents? This is insane.
Landlords should absolutely be able to screen tenants and do criminal background checks. It's their invested property and they want to make sure it's taken care of and remains safe. The decision should be left totally up to them whether or not they rent to an individual with a criminal past.
This law is ridiculous. Now you have to worry about your neighbors more than ever. In NYCHA there’s so many criminals living in those buildings.
In NYCHA there are people who live below poverty….
This policy is definately a mixed bag. On one hand of course you wanna know who's moving in, on the other hand the quickest and most consistent way to make a criminal or to turn someone back into a criminal is to narrow or eliminate thier legal options.
Great! So now I don't need to get a criminal BG check to buy a firearm! What if they are an S3x offender? This won't get past an honest judge, IF you can find one in a Blue state.
Who comes up with these ideas? Why should criminals receive the same opportunities as biding citizens, let alone live next door? Why would someone and their family be comfortable living next to someone who was convicted of murdering, or sexual assaulting somebody? What do victims of crimes say? Why aren’t lawmakers taking into consideration what victims of crime opinions are? Why is denying criminals apartment applications considered discrimination? Why are politicians and city councils so ‘corrupted?.’
Socialists Commies with a good heart. 😂😂😂😂
That’s insanity I lived in a place like this, where people were accepted, and they ruined everything, including breaking into my apartment, and ruining everything I owned,I’m sorry but never again to find people that are grateful is really far in between man
Chances are that hard core criminals are not going to have a credit score good enough to qualify to rent an apartment
At this point, I don't know why I'm still a law-abiding citizen. Criminals are getting more rights than those of us who don't live to mess with other people's lives. 🤦🏼♀️
As a landlord whether someone is going to pay rent on time is not the only thing I care about.
You know once they are in your property, you can't evict them easily right? and you think they'd rather pay your rent than using legal loophole to stay in your place since they are already criminal in the first place. You have to spent years in court to get them out in New York
You are a landlord, how do I deal with a slumlord that sexually seduce my mother when im not in the apt to cause division between me and my mom that I protect in a narcissistic neighborhood which I have a ton of proof? When we first moved here they tried setting us up to make us look like bad people in "their community" by placing garbage next to a tenant we live next to trying frame us but I have proof of who did it since I'm aware of bad energy and my surroundings protecting my mom....how can I take action and report this since my mother is living in fear while causing me problems whom I protect?
@@goldden1427 hi I’m so sorry this happened to you. Unfortunately I am a landlord and not a lawyer. I suggest you go to the legal aid society and maybe get security cameras for proof. Before you move into a building you can research the buildings history. You should be able to get information on your landlord just as your landlord gets information about you.
@@Comexcyc849 yes I know. I am very strict when it comes to tenants. The way I see it NYC is a high risk area therefore my reward must be high as well and I should do everything in my power to minimize risk. What I meant is that if a tenant is a danger or a nuisance to other residents it causes more headache and liability for me. And I would want them out even if they are paying. Because the others are paying as well and deserve peace and safety.
Lived in the bronx my entire life and it blows my mind how the more you try to better yourself and do the right thing, the less rights you actually have in this city. Obviously all these cities are run by a criminal organization.
Yep…
NYC is a one party rule city. So the only vote that matters is the primary ones. Unfortunately, at least in NYC, the party has gone all in on what they call "criminal justice reform", which basically means the justice system was being too mean to criminals and now must not be so mean. For better or for worse republicans are not viable in NYC, and NYC democratic leadership isn't changing their beliefs anytime soon, so this will continue.
Prior eviction and bad credit is a big issue in NC
If there are a dozen people looking at the same apartment and the landlord picks one how would the city prove that the other 11 people were discriminated against?
I really like how you frame some difficult questions that the city goes through that sometimes I have a hard time articulating to neighbors, friends and co-workers. The housing crisis alongside the migrant crisis seems like it'll be the big hot button issue for at least for the next couple of years for us. I've always gotten rooms and apartments via local friends and owners and never really had to scroll through streeteasy. I'd honestly feel uncomfortable if someone in a unit I was in wasn't really vetted or vouched for by someone I know nowadays.
Difficult questions or those acting like theyre questions?
thats a you problem. That's not how reality works. If you want nothing but vetted neighbors go live in the suburbs or a gated community. The reality is people particularly younger generation people who are not criminals. are already struggling to get even a small apartment the size of a closet. Mostly due to boomer thought processes like yours. Take your boomer self to the suburbs or a gated community. Dont talk to me about the housing crises when you think you are entitled to control whom lives in your building. You are helping make it worse with this. I already need 8 references and a perfect credit score to even be considered and not have my application thrown out. I dont need entitled boomers like you making it EVEN HARDER. to get something as basic as a roof over my head becouse you do not like how I look or you are having a bad day. I dont care boomer.
Before a lawmaker is allowed to make a law they should be required to abide by it first. So in this case they should have to allow a felon to live in their home or next door before the law takes affect for the general public. If they do not wish to do this they must come up with another solution. Perhaps create separate housing somewhere?
This is insane. I was actually thinking of buying land in NYC one day, if I hit the lottery admittedly, to live in, and then rent out when I get tired of living in the dystopia. This would flat out kill that dream for me. As a landlord, it's crucial to profile to ensure I don't have to deal with shit later. I've worked for enough landlords who rent out to section 8 and, as helpful as section 8 is for the people who need it, I can say I would firmly never rent to section 8. Guaranteed money isn't worth the headache. Every year we'd have to basically repair the same apartments because, when the lease was up, it was canned due to countless complaints over the course of the year, and the apartment was always absolutely trashed. One time literally. A vet who, while I respect his background and service and need for accommodation, holy hell the guy just left trashbags full of beer cans in the second bedroom! Or the vet across the hall who smoked, despite it being strictly on the lease that smoking in the apartment was NOT allowed. He was not kicked out, however, because he always paid his rent. I mean, I hope so. His financial burden was, no joke, $8 a month. He eventually did move for reasons I can't remember... I think he was relocated to a group home or something of the sort. But the apartment was, again, a mess!
It's not about discrimination. It's about secure investment. Even if you're not a multi-million dollar investment firm, it's important to ensure you rent to people who will, on some level, respect your property. I'd argue because I'm not a multi-million dollar firm, it's even more important. I CAN'T afford to just keep fixing shit that shouldn't be breaking because the renter is an inconsiderate prick who thinks "it's not my problem."
And even some of the best renters do this. Hell, I'd do it. We rented out our old home for a bit to a lovely young couple. Always paid on time, always kept the house clean. But their dog pissed on our living room carpet repeatedly. It was something the dog had never done. Just a new environment I guess. And a bunch of little irritants, like putting up sat tv dish without telling us. We don't like them. It's not our thing, and it's holes in our roof now. This is just how things are when you rent, but you minimize risks by doing shit like.. imagine this, a BACKGROUND CHECK.
And the best part, there's a real easy way to avoid having this hassle. DON'T COMMIT A CRIME. I and millions of other Americans have gone their whole lives without issue with this. It's not like speeding tickets show up. This is theft, sexual and physical violence. The world shouldn't be built for criminals. I agree that cruel punishment shouldn't be enacted, and some focus on rehab is needed, but we're already over a threshold where the punishment for crime is not dissuading many criminals. Look at the rate of repeat offense IMMEDIATELY after arrest. It's no remorse, neither in emotions or blocked by a fear of getting arrested again.
The fact is, it's my property. If I don't like you, I don't HAVE to rent to you. My house that I worked hard to pay for is NOT your right. I own it. And I can tell you I won't own property in a city that does this. This means very little coming from someone who admittedly is very far from owning any property in the NYC metro area, but this would kill any dream of such an act. It's not worth the risk, and I hope others see it the same. Regardless of where you stand on criminal rights, being unable to properly profile your potential tenants just means you open yourself up to risk. What these people don't realize when they complain about asshole landlords is tenants have it easy. Zero responsibility, and plenty of legal protection. The draw back is you own NOTHING. But you can't really just be kicked out, but, in the long term, you may have to move again if things change. But it's not easy to just get someone out of a home you rent. We had one tenant we cleaned shit up for who was shooting at her boyfriend (who wasn't supposed to be living in the unit) with the BB gun. Neighbors were complaining. She was not evicted, because it was easier to just wait until the end of the lease in a YEAR. Hadn't been 3 months before the neighbors were sick of her shit, and other tenants in the same small building LEFT because of this lady. Trust me, you have it easier. Think I'm wrong? Go buy your own damn house and prove me wrong. I shouldn't have to give a reason why you are denied an apartment any more of a reason than I am deserved a reason why I was denied a job. Sorry, I don't want you in my fucking house. Good bye.
Personally, my goal is to find a renter and then handle the legal end of it after. I already know who I am renting to before hand, so there's no real applicant phase. I can just deny you because who the fuck cares. There's nothing to appeal. I just decided to not rent to you. Doesn't matter what my home does next. Maybe I'm going to live in it, maybe I'm just keeping it empty for now. It's not your problem because it's NOT YOUR HOME AND I DON'T OWE YOU, A COMPLETE STRANGER (or even a friend) A SPOT TO LIVE IN MY HOME.
This remind me kind of a story that happened in Boston. Not a tenant but an employee of a luxury building. A couple was brutally murdered in their home by the ex-concierge back in 2017. Basically it was a robbery gone bad. Whats crazy about this story is the company security knew that he was a convicted bank robber where he robbed the same bank twice and that was never relayed to the building management. Because of this, the family of the victims filed a wrongful death action on both the building and security company. (The murderer got sentence to live with no possibility of parole). Going back to the discussion, NO ITS NOT A GOOD IDEA. Not knowing if your living next to a sex offender, an ex-robber, drug dealer, etc. raises a safely issue. I get people should get a second chance, but the common thing is not committing the crime in the first place.
Your videos are insanely detailed and educational for anyone!
one of my favourite youtubers. i live in UK and im kept up to date with stuff in NYC. love it and the effort taken into making and editing these videos. thanks mate :)
I have helped a lot of people with a "criminal" history. There is a big difference between someone who was 'young and stupid' which I think most of us were at some time but managed not to get caught and a career criminal. There is NO GARUNTEE that someone with a long criminal history is less likely to pay rent than some SOVERIGN citizen who seems to pay nothing to anyone. Landlords should be allowed to see criminal history and make REASONABLE decision based on that.
As a Canadian it is baffling how much access potential employers and/or landlords have to your personal information. Canadian employers do not get to run a credit check before hiring you and landlords just ask for references and a damage deposit. Criminal background checks are only required if you work with an at risk population such as children.
What do you expect. Amerikkka is just a training ground for future nazis.
Continue your well documented series it’s very informative. Keep it up!
How can you imagine background checks for asylum seekers?
Yesterday they got schools, tomorrow they will get apartments (with vouchers)
"The White House says funding is available for the NYC to provide housing for eligible asylum seekers families, which includes up to 14,000 vouchers". CBS News, August 31, 2023
God only knows what they are bringing in with them! Lots of young men with no families? From all over the world, not just from South America. Who wants to take a chance with their family to live next door to an asylum seekers? They have already illegally invaded our country, without firing a shot, they have invaded. Think about that!!
THAT what this is really all about. It's the first thing that came to my mind when i started watching the video. NYC has run out of places to house these illegal aliens and they are breaking entrepreneuers' income by forcing them to accept illegals. America is putting unvetted illegals before Americans and since so much money is being funded to non-profits, look for them to challenge and abuse the original intent of this law to force property owners to house illegals, who they know cannot undergo a serious background check. I expect to see a lot of property owners, who had depended on that rental income for retirement or passing down generational wealth to offspring, to just give up and sell to a real estate corporation, which is what the govt wants.
& voting is next,hence why the push
That’s BS when US citizens are homeless!
Wait until the government Demands U.S. Citizens house illegals and expect you to pay for them.
Landlords are not just doing criminal background checks, the landlords are also googling and even locking up Facebook/social media for prospective tenants as well.
for anyone thats been to prison will know the first thing your asked is why are you there and if you have bad paper work your pretty much screwed even criminals care who they live near with
Interesting. This law, it seems, would impact poorer neighborhoods much more than richer ones - since convicts are not likely to meet the financial requirements of the finer establishments. As always, the working class pay and the wealthy get off the hook.
So someone who diddled minors could be living under the same roof as people who have families? That’s such BS. Yes, there is an exception for an RSO, but still you would have to run a background check to find out so it is a catch 22.
People with such records have specific requirements about where they can live or work and wouldn't be allowed I a building near a school or playground or something similar
They talk about discrimination, but people have the choice as to whether they commit crimes and there should be consequences.😮
$3,300 for a 3 bedroom apartment? I pay $1,300 a month for a 4600 sqft house.
So glad I don’t live in New York
Solutions:
Get out of the city or the five boroughs
Second have a roommate that you know like friends,co-workers you trust
Get another job from another state
Don’t get an apartment if you can’t afford if the apartment is more than your paycheck every two weeks then don’t sign the lease
Manhattan is sinking
NYC is expensive
Your you offer to all of chat solution : Live in fear.
My advice: Be smart, always know your surroundings, you always have and did have a right to defend yourself. Don't live terrified of what 'may' happen---- you MIGHT get into a traffic accident, you never gunna drive a car again?
@@marthlink5015 thanks but it’s being cautious it’s not living in fear,and and I agree with you know your surroundings and the people around you.and I don’t own a car so I don’t drive😊
Does that mean they have to rent out to those tenants that got evicted in their last rental for not paying rent? :/
Or for vandalizing their former residence?
Theyre going to make it undesirable for anyone to be a landlord. Then theyre going to step in and provide government housing.
@@floridaman7 sounds good to me
@@DevilFruit2000 but it’s not
@@DevilFruit2000 Not a great idea when the government owns and manages everything, they then own you, a communist dream.
An NYC woman was recently murdered, when she entered the apartment that her deceased mother left her. recently.
So the only landlords that will be left are the corporate ones that can deal with any possible blow back of no background checks. Did New York City maybe think about the reasons WHY landlords are worried about getting into a lease with someone with a criminal history? Maybe solve those issues first?
Property Value will drop like Hell!
it feels resonabile to want to know if your new roommate has been to prison or not
Look from the other side !!! If you own an apartment building and it's a stabilized apartment building and you're losing money every month why in the hell would you keep the damn appartment building ?????
Well it just means get the hell out of NewYork !
This law would be ok if you combine it with the ability to sue the city if a former convict harms the property, landlord, or other residents. Specifically sue the judge who allowed the con out of prison.
Suingthe judge always sounds like a good knee jerk reaction, but if you sit and think about it, it wouldn't work. It would just encourage the judge to throw everyone in jail no matter the circumstances, after all if you are a judge do you want to take the chance of getting sued?
My point is everyone response to incentives, that true for judges, politicians, or the guy down the street who fixes your car. You want to have less criminals in NYC, you need to have less incentives to be a criminal, not only legally but socially.
In my search to purchase an apartment in NYC I'm starting to learn exactly how crazy it is. Even if you have perfect credit, and pass all the background checks you still have to meet with and be approved by the HOA board. So just because you can buy an apartment in the city doesn't mean you will.
So you're renting space in a condo building? That's extra complications but allowed. Can you avoid condos?
@@annem7806 I'm looking to purchase. The one's I've looked at so far exclude renting them out. With the exception of the Essex House. But the views from the Essex were terrible, and it's only a one bedroom.
Slaves cant purchase. They are often forced to behave in ways marketed as purchasing. You think youre trying to get forced to behave in ways lied about as purchasing?
Lol that's why you use your ethnic group connections, jews rent to other jews, chinese put rental ads only in chinese , the Mexicans and illegals have their own connections etc....
If you don't have ethnic or group connections you are basically fucked your only choice is to have 4x the rent + proof of income
These laws have made it so that anyone you don't want can view your rental unit, say that they want it, and then can sue you if you refuse.
Yeah this is a terrible plan. Of course it would help some good people that made mistakes and turned things around.. But what happens when you get the guy who's been in and out for assault 10 times or more? This would need to be a case by case basis, at LEAST, and would need a TON of oversight. Considering New Yorks track record.. yeah, bad idea.
They did their time. So are they supposed to be homeless and have even more potential for recidivism?
@@StephieGsrEvolution
I believe this is a bad idea too.
Should be evaluated case by case.
@@StephieGsrEvolution: Obviously you have no experience with felons - they are not exactly predictable & if anything happens YOU or your family members will be the ones that suffer...
They may or may not be fully rehabilitated - do You really want to take that risk?!!😵
We'd have to develop ai to do it that's too much for anyone to do properly@@terridickey3896
It's not the first time the government put all the problems on the business to solve, make them take all the risks of hiring, renting, paying...for crazies, druggies, criminals!
New York's problem is that they let criminals out of prison. Criminals should be in prison. If they complete their sentence they should be able to live anywhere they can afford and should be able to work legal jobs. New York's problem is they let people out of prison before they've served their sentence and then allow employers to deny them jobs and landlords to deny them housing. What do you expect a person to do if they can't get a job or a house and know that committing a crime won't result in them getting stuck in prison. New York and other parts of the US are deliberately creating a criminal class of people who are free to roam in public but are denied the opportunity to earn legal income and pay for legal shelter.
Once again, it’s good citizens out and another win for criminals.
My sister used to be a property manager and she screens people by an unwritten law - it works. People renting with questionable backgrounds, you will have more chance to see a police car being called in your apartment People getting rent assistance by experience of most landlords will see the apartment becoming a trash.
Which unwritten law?
Wow. In Montana rent assistance or public housing is closely monitored and any break in the rules (like a trash heap) and the renter will be gone. Out. Using drugs? They're gone.
I once made a mistake to rent my property to a section 8 tenant. The place was severely trashed when they left. They brought in more people to live at the property without checking with me first. There were drug and domestic violence activities going on and the police were called often. I was left with a BIG repair bill and received no help whatsoever from the housing authority. Never again.
In Illinois you can ask for police records for rentals. You can turn down anybody, for any reason, if the rental is attached to the renters main residence.
Surprised a landlord hasn’t cashed in on the ex-cons, and had a building where they were welcome. 🤷🏻♂️
All these “testers” will do is having landlords with waiting lists of preferred renters. They will get everybody’s info and put them on a list when something becomes available. Then they will call the applicants they prefer first, one of them get the apartment , then call the no-go testers up, meet and later say it’s been taken.
Coming to Illinois just like the migrants. The main way landlords control they're property is and always will be price. When that's gone they sell.
There is absolutely no way that I would ever live next door to a criminal just out of prison because when they get out they go back to their life of crime and leaving their neighbours wide open to being their next victim! What is wrong with the authorities in N.Y. city! They should sell the vacant properties and use the money to build secure halfway houses with strict rules for the criminals and make them work to pay for their apartments! Px
As one with family members who are criminals, i can say every one of them just wants to be a criminal.
