Being poor is one thing but being old and poor can be disheartening 😢
They get what they voted for
@@RUTHLESSambition5maybe they voted for safe streets, man. the thing dems dgaf about
@@freddyrodriguez4732 so don't cry about getting kicked out with no notice. This is what you get with no oversight
@@RUTHLESSambition5 whos crying about getting kicked out? my elderly parents an in laws are wealthy and own expensive homes. i’m doing what you libs do an awful job of , this thing called “showing empathy”. they dont deserve to be kicked out for being poor, thats a Capitalism problem not a voting problem. We re all being forced to choose between safety and social services, because welcome to Late Capitalism America
People being poor is a choice.
They will evict them then convert it into an expensive hotel. It’s all about money. It’s always about money.
Everything in life is about money, when is it not about money?
The owner of that building is NOT DOING CHARITY WORK ok! Just like you and me and the rest of the society, poor or rich, we all need to make a living and earn money to survive and save money for the family! I know it’s hard to be in that situation and nobody wants to be in their shoes but it is what it is! Hopefully they can negotiate with the landlord to give them more time to move.
Hmmm, ironically weren't these the same overwhelmingly Republican Cuban voters in S. Florida who also helped put DeSantis into office?!
And they will house the migrants for free with taxpayer money...It's happening all over...
They own it. They can do it.
Being evicted from your home is one of the worst experiences someone can have. 🙏
And imagine being Elderly at the same time as being Evicted!!
Yep. I've had two different landlords try it, and both times I went to eviction court and won. (It's a rent-controlled building and I've been here 28 years. If they'd scared me into leaving, they could have tripled the rent on this unit.) I'm in California, though. Enjoyed visiting Florida back when my in-laws lived there, but damned if I'd want to live there.
Thank desantis
Don’t like it move
@@JacobSchmitt-j8p yeah, right. Like the elderly have so many options. Thank DeSantis for changing the law to make life difficult for the elderly and to enrich investors.
It’s so sad how this GREAT country cares more about money than actual people.

True anywhere. I have been all over Europe and see homeless and poor everywhere.
@arturoanton2958 I recommend looking into Republican politicians that purposefully sabotage any efforts to help poor people like rejecting completely free federal money for programs and refusing benefactors to pay for school lunches for children.
Timothy 6:10 the love of money 💴 the root of all evil .
There’s no logic in which a society pays people poor wages, but charges them high paying rent. Evil, is what’s at work here.
Evil isn't at work: capitalism is. What's your job? How do you profit? You're a capitalist too, right? You want to be paid the most money, but you deny landlords the same right. What hypocrisy.
It's not society's responsibility to fix your poor decisions in life. You squandered your youth doing nothing and now you're unaccompanied. You want society now to just be less successful to make things easier for you.
@@fakerating Capitalism is the same damn thing, it’s evil. And no, I want to be paid a livable wage. And a landlord doesn’t need to price gouge tenants in order for them to live a good life. See, I’m sorry your father failed you.. but in a logical world, everybody should benefit not just a small %. Your landlord theory is trash because most landlords pass down their costs to the poor tenants. Just like corporations do. That’s what you call GREED. Business is high risk, high reward. You don’t just pass every expense down to the customer, that’s cowardly and evil. Tomorrow we’ll work on shapes and colors
@@fakerating I profit because I help the business profit. Without me and others there is no business. Only a dumbazz thinks a CEO is more important than a worker or a customer. Everyone is connected. If the government wants certain people to be wealthy that’s fine. But you can’t make 90% of the population struggle on their behalf. When you learn that we all need each other, your I.Q. will raise, and then you can go take your GED test.
They pay people below a living wage all the time in New York City now it's florida turn.
The landlord is not a individual person. The landlord is a corporation that consists of billionaires buying up all commercial and residential properties in highly desirable areas to convert them to maximize profits.
Blackrock. Evil.
So, what would you do as a business person yourself?🤔

@@BigRelly1 actually the majority of landlords are individual people that own one or two properties trying to make a living some of those may be incorporated helping your very untrue assumptions and narrative, but when the market via the government drives inflation through the roof you can’t expect rent to not increase. Rent has not increased nearly as drastically as house prices.
There is only one crime in America for which there is a 100% conviction rate, no parole or early release, or chance for appeal. That is being poor.

I probably better keep my House and not sell it I'm 76 and have lived here 49yrs. And the loan has been paid off.

@@MonochromaticBluesSnarky.
The country needs more apartments for seniors and more apartments that allow pets.
Also for the working poor. The havoc this wreaks on family's and the elderly is just sick.
Enough with the pets stuff. It's part of the problem

You are so right. I just don't get it.
You have a point, especially with their state government. Miami has changed rapidly over the last 20 years and a lot of the people there sort of vote opposite of their Own interest.

@@SinserNarmah537 maybe not on that particular apt complex but in Ohio seniors are getting put out of quite a few places...believe me I'm a senior now so I keep waiting for my turn.
that is why people should advocate for the elderly when it comes to housing, they live on fixed incomes and they grew up in a time and era that they knew..They could not have fathom that Miami would have grown to this degree......They have more experience in Miami than all these newcomers....
Now because Miami is an hotspot for real estate development , they should not be priced out or evicted.... I do blame the government for this because they did not offer their seniors any type of protections......nor did they build any type of retirement communities for their lifelong residents..... This is a shame that people needs to speak up about, they paid their dues , they should not be having to go through this....... this society is not designed for everybody to be a millionaire and live a glamorous, luxurious life lifestyle..... The majority of people are still regular people with average incomes..... There needs to be a real estate reform especially for the retirees, they cannot be expected to pay market rate for a rental or a house..... they paid their dues, this free market stuff needs to stop..... people cannot be dependant of the private sector for housing anymore, it is totally out of control......
Well I'm a homeowner and insurance, repairs, new water heater, new roof, real estate taxes, the costs just keep increasing. Absolutely nothing has gone down in price. Nothing.
Housing costs ( rentals or ownership) have become way, way too expensive. It is sad. Really sad.
Its a month to month lease, this was never meant to be permanent.
true. i alway's ask for a 12 with 90 day notice.

Renting can be a harsh reality for a lot of families. When I rented before, I made sure not to buy a lot of stuff so as to be ready when the time comes if this happens.
Nothing's guaranteed in this corrupt selfish hateful country. Not surprised at all. The owners of this apartment complex is possibly throwing a party somewhere across the street.
That’s a stressful way to live.
This wouldnt problem if Florida stopped allowing out of country buyers to buy houses
Really? Because they aren't the ones changing the Laws saying you can be thrown out in 30 days.
@@xoxxobob61if you are month to month, a 30 day notice is standard in nearly every state. Even in places that heavily favor tenants legally that is standard.

Not true. Millions of foreign born citizens buy in Florida too.

They can't afford it, so they move to a different part of town that they can afford. That's their best option. They can ask their church to help them with the moving.
Before you ask, yes churches and church members do help with such things. They're old Cubans, so a guarantee that they go to church.
3 Words.....Prime Real-Estate!
Grant cardone probably snatched it up 😅
One word: GREED
Big time
Yep...people renting feel entitled lol and are not paying the appropriate rent for area lol..What a world we live in
And yet they say it's better to rent. Than buy a home. Because as a renter you don't have taxes to pay that accompany the property. Well for reasons like these, I always believe it's better to own your home.
who in the hell told you that? As a renter you are paying taxes just not directly, your rent more than likely covers all expenses related to the property plus a little extra for the landlord to pocket and that not including the equity he is getting. next time someone says that ask them how much equity they have after 25 years of renting
This was a valid argument until around 2021, when elderly home owners were hit 5x properly taxes they couldn't afford and news channels were then, covering THOSE stories. Fortunately, some people had " anonymous" donors pay their property taxes. For a year or 2. Absolutely no one is safe regarding housing except the uber wealthy because wealth brings options
@@i420Austin420i….try decaf 😒
Wow- talk about missing the point!
The commenter you just raged at concluded they believed folks are better off owning their homes.
Reading comprehension must not have been that important to your parents or your elementary school.
I believe you about owning because it's cheaper after a few years. However, owning now is more expensive. I'm a condo owner, so I know.
You think the landlord has any compassion !! It’s all about money !
It’s genuinely sad that the retirees are held in such disregard,by this generation …as if they will never be there too.🥺🇺🇸
This generation? Lol. I am not a natural born American ( haitian) and speaking for myself and I hope other carribean and latin american plus asian countries cause I've had close friends from all those groups and met their families, America treats older than 50 to elderly as (why are you still alive?) You're not useful anymore. Look at the description of folks those ages generally? Nope for all the peoples I've mentioned growing old is an important thing and the younger ones pay respect. When my dad decided that he would go back to Haiti when the youngest went to college, I asked why papi? We need you here. He said sure,😂 you guys grew up here, Im not giving you the chance to get tired of me and put me in a home to mess myself with no one to care. He left and would come here for a month or 2 every 4 months. He had a wonderful retirement, stayed well in health eating fresh food and active, traveled to visit family all over. An overall great retirement for his hard working days in the US providing for the 4 of us, well deserved.
They are forgetting that these people were once their age.
It's their own generation that voted to allow these policies.
Well the truth is ugly, that generation closed the door to anyone else having what they did, not feeling sorry for them is where we’re at. Govt needs to open up institutions for the sick and disabled, govt housing for the old and and the poor. Are we that dumb that we can’t reimagine those types of living
the children will grow up and work against what their parents put in place ...
see The Fourth Turning (howe/strauss) ...
it's been that way for a long time now ...

This is ONE of MANY reasons why I have NEVER paid rent to NO ONE! And to all those people who are paying HOA's...wait until they start kicking you out of your homes. I've heard it's happening already.
This is why it’s important to read your rental lease.

What is sad about this is the landlord probably knew a long time ago this was going to happen but gave them only two months. 😡
It’s called being evil and heartless.
Show credible proof.
@SachelleCambria why? He gave them more notice than legally necessary. I get that it sucks for the renters but it IS his property.

This information is absolutely incorrect! In Florida on a month-to-month lease, no one was ever required to give a 60 day notice not the landlord and not the tenant.
In Miami finding an inexpensive place is impossible
This is criminal behavior! Putting seniors out of their homes in order to satisfy the need for material wealth is heartless! God Is Watching!

While this is a hard situation for the tenants, the bottom line is that this building has an owner and the owner can do what they want with their property. This is not government housing.
Very true but government housing only caters to single mothers and druggies so it does not help everyday people.

The lease clearly states it is "MONTH-TO-MONTH" with only 30 day notice required from either party - the landlord offer 2 month notice, and suddenly he's a villain. Why did these people sign a month-to-month lease? And if they did, surely they understood it is a legally valid document?
I think it is the volume of people being removed that is the issue
They probably did have yearly leases when they first moved in. The landlord then switched to monthly leases when property values started increasing.
Try a little Christly compassion for seniors! You'll get there some day!
I bet they had year or 6 month lease and recently and they we’re force to change to month to month on all the leases. It should have been a red flag, however I bet the lease company keep quite to suck every last penny.
Red flag? Are you guys decoding a mystery or something? You know it's not a scam right? It just business
To think that I rented an efficiency apartment on Miami Beach for $380.00 month all utilities included in 1980.

6 months for long-time, elderly tenants!!! How can these heartless developers expect people to vacate their homes in 30 days... even 60 days is too little! If they want them out in 3 months or less - pay moving expenses and temporary housing for at least 2 months... it takes time to find new homes - especially when you're older. You're so vulnerable renting...and developers like this are disgustingly greedy.

The situation is sad but 2 months notice is pretty generous especially when only a month was required. You dont need 6 months to find a new rental.

Maybe a bunch of them can get together with neighbors and afford to rent a large house together or something...
We need to insist for laws to protect the Elderly. Call your Congress person.
To evict means to kick out, not to leave.
I agreed 3 to 6 months should be a mandate.
You would think so but no everyone has had to deal with 1 month across the country. They are already getting double what everyone normally gets and crying about it no less.
@@Its-a-Sign it works both ways. If the tenant wanted to leave they would have to give the same amount of notice. If someone passes away who wants to pay that 3 to 6 months rent. If you want to be a taker then learn to be a giver.

This is pathetic to do these elderly people like this. God be with them all. 🙏 😢
I know people may not want to do this but I think the only way to survive is to go back to generational family living. If your family is really toxic or there is no family, you may have to roommate together. It can be unpleasant with all sorts of nuances but at least you'll have a roof over your head and try to pool living expenses in order to survive. Next option even if you've lived somewhere for decades, you may need to relocate to a more affordable area. It's horrible out here for so many people right now
The government tried to stop that when they told folks to come in masses and leave the old ways behind
@anye76 Right. Read that there’s an increase in the elderly getting roommates. Many of these people probably have friends in the building so that would be an option. It’s not perfect, but it would keep them from being on the streets
A lot of these people don’t have families. Not everyone is born into a healthy family. We need more rent controlled apartments for elderly and disabled. Not fair to put them out on the streets to make room for a new hotel no one wants and after they go on fixed incomes and can’t work.
That is how I am surviving. Living with my mom. I couldn’t afford rent or a house in northern IL. Let alone the taxes!
@@dashaott849 I understand, thank goodness you have that option. Just had a coworker confess to me that if her nearly 65 y.o. mother didn't still work or wasn't here any longer, she at 42 couldn't live on her own, she can't keep everything going by herself. He is a manager in her company. That's a sentiment that is being echoed all over. What's up with the taxes? So high for what seems like no legitimate reason. Insanity🤯
A person does not evict an apartment. A person is evicted from an apartment. The apartment stays, the human goes.

You lose your home, and we will probably see you on the news because you couldn't handle it. Where's your compassion for others? Plus, I never saw a home, car, boats, and money follow behind a hurst. Good day
Is it just me or does the title to this video have poor wording?
It was ok during Covid that tenants didn’t pay for up to 3 years of rent. It’s sad but landlords have the right to do with their property what they want. People want higher wages well landlords want higher rents too.
This is what happens when you open your state up to all of those New Yorkers.
I don't know why these tenants are surprised! Rent in SFL has been high for years.
If only the elderly had families and friends to help them...
Unfortunately, a lot of elderly have outlived their friends and family. It’s also possible that their friends and family live too far away or just aren’t in the financial position to help them out. :/
Everyone doesn’t have family or friends to help. You are a real emphatic POS

This is the risk you assume when doing a month to month; they ( tenants ) got 2 months notice; they will lose in court.
Dear CBS Miami writers, one does not "evict themself"...one may be evicted. The way this is written means residents are evicting their apartments (as in kicking out apartments somehow). You meant forced to vacate...
3-6 months is not going to matter. Month to month leases in that area? They were always in danger of this happening.
Evict their apartments? Where are the apartments going to go? Who will move them? Did you finish High School?
Those poor Americans
It was 15 days. Florida Statute 83.57. A month to month rental agreement, it's not a lease, the landlord could ask the tenant to leave in 15 days. I didn't research this but according to this reporter who could be wrong, after desantis signed I guess executive order, it is now 30 days.
Again, it has to do with the payment period

I empathize with tenants on fixed incomes that don’t keep up with the cost of living. However it sounds like they got a pretty good deal for a lot of years and the landlord is allowing them more notice then the law requires. It is a dilemma. I hope they can find something satisfactory.
Ivan ..excellent reporting..
Should have given them six months. Shameful!!!
That's why you never rent "your home". If you rent, it is never "your home".
You still own your home!! Lol 😂
You still don’t own your home! Taxes they will tax you out of your home so ther that ! Lol 😂
Whats the problem here? They knew they were month to month. Would the property owner be able to force someone to stay if the tenants gave 30 days notice? Of course not. Same applies in this case. Why didnt they have 1 or 2 year leases?
Most places are All month to month now. People simply cannot find affordable rentals, let alone good-paying jobs and high down payments for house buying! Get a clue!
Two months notice to get the hell out of their homes is heartless. As the lady said give them some more time, 3-6 months.

Normally ppl start with a 1 year lease. Then go month to month when their lease expires. I always suggest to keep your lease up to date. Its sad that they are loosing their homes but if you want to make sure your housing is secure then make sure you have a lease signed.
@@lostnetwork5717 If they let you!
@@lostnetwork5717not these days and you know it🇺🇸
@@saythankyou111 not sure what you mean. Can you articulate it?
in miami, usually when a 12 month lease ends it automatically turns into a month to month if no new 12 month agreement is signed, not necessarily means a price increase but it can
Don't you have a caring mayor in your prime real-estate town?
There is no caring governor in the state.
I am from Florida. No, the mayor is corrupt. And Governor DeSantis made it easier for landlord to evict
The mayor can’t trump the Gov
Thankfully, I don't live in Florida, I feel sorry for the people there. Every day, there's news about evictions, property taxes, HOA trouble, homeowners insurance, Iguanas infestations, and upcoming bad weather...
But, somehow, they keep voting for that no good nut Ron DeSantis...
Wake up, people...
Florida went from being a retirement haven to being in hell, Florida has taken a turn for the worse...
This is why people are moving out of state...
All this is happening because of greed...😢😢😢
Get out.
Ron didn't do this. He isn't helping either.
I agree 💯.. I lived in Florida for 15 years before deSnake.. it was great.. he has made deals for money and sold the people 😔. Just a month or so ago a half of a million people were notified their insurance company has dropped them.. there is a collapse coming in Florida.
@@wendelee0968 Maybe cry more, it might help.
Don't forget bogus code violations ..Florida is trash ..not worth the hype at all ..glad I left
Whats the problem?
They signed the agreement.
Evict their apartments? How do you evict an apartment? Kick it out of the building?
Location, location, location… if your in a low income area in Miami be proactive and make alternate plans..
2 months notice is plenty of time. It's twice the time they are entitled to.
That’s not enough
When people wonder why Squater laws exist, They dont exist as squater laws, but original to prevent tenants from being ousted like this.
squatting would require the Landlord not knowing of there occupancy, on top of that there on a month to month, that means at anytime, they or the landlord can give them notice they need to vacate the property.they should have renewed there lease to lock in the rate and the time they would occupy the property.
@@i420Austin420iummmm that’s a bit naive in this real estate climate 🥺
@@saythankyou111 lol how? they literally agreed to it when they signed the lease..... why i always recommend to my tenants to lock in your lease! Month-to-month is not good for anyone
I wonder why spelling laws exist.
Florida state seems useless when it comes to protecting tenants, and no regulations for condo maintenance (until the Champlaine accident).
The ball is rolling. Like a snow ball going down hill and gathering volume and weight, laws in Florida will eventually crush anyone who stay in their path. The poor people, of course.
That's why you buy a home. Not rent
The market is ridiculous right now, not a buyers market
Thank you for your sensitivity and understanding 🙄🙄🤡
Seriously right? I mean if you’re homeless just buy a home.. it’s that simple…. 🙄
Some folks simply can’t afford it so think about that before you make a blanket statement like that.
Yeah, how’s that homeowner insurance in Florida treating you…
Seems nation wide homes are being forfeit
Perhaps share apartments or move in with your family. Does anyone have family who cares about their old people? Not enough housing for everyone to live alone. We use to care for one another in families.
Three to Six months
How about NOT F'n' evicted Seniors
It's F'n' Criminal!!
Month to month is risky for tenants and hopefully they will consider themselves more aware. Ask for long term lease, and never accept month to month.
It's vacate their apartments; not evict !
In the long run they are doing these renters a favor as Miami is going under water with each storm and each high tide!! And insurance...forget anout it
So I’m confused 🤔 the old law was 60 days notice. The new law is 30 days notice. The landlord gave them 60 days notice. Yes it sucks to be evicted but if this was your business do all of you really want everyone else telling you that you have to operate at a loss because it seems mean? I would love to see all these people commenting here take a 50% pay cut and when everyone else told them awe it’s okay it helps others how would they feel. Most of these landlord’s went years without money during the pandemic yet still had to pay water and electricity and heat and property taxes and or course for the buildings themselves. Never seeing any of that missed rent just happy when they could finally evict the squatters. Rent is ridiculously high but blame the blithering idiot in the big White House not the people he inflicted in on.
To relocate, they will likely need first month's rent, last month's rent, and a security deposit which is thousands of dollars in Miami. The average American doesn't even have $400 in savings in case of emergency let alone these elderly folks who may on a fixed income. It would take months to save NOT 30 days.
The landlord is so wrong for this! Even a bank gives a property owner more time to catch up on payment that their landlord.
My mom had broken her leg and went from a full care facility to a residential facility that offered rehab and services that made her life easier. She planned to return to her home when the rehab was complete. While she was there, the facility raised their prices so much that many of the long term residents were being pushed out. These people had sold their homes to be able to afford assisted living in a place where they weren’t responsible for lawn care or home repairs. They expected it to be their home until they died. The facility had advertising that made it sound like that was the plan.
Many of these folks, my mom included, didn’t want to have to impose on their kids. They themselves had cared for their elder parents, and didn’t want to become a burden.
They deserve to age with dignity, and without being made homeless. Stop taxing their special security, for one. Stop the horrible Medicare mess that is so confusing, it’s like it was designed to be an institutional version of a funhouse maze. Increase social security to an amount that matches today’s economy.
