    Texas Supreme Temp. Halts Eviction Proceedings

    On March 19, the Texas Supreme Court issued an Order that No trial, hearing, or other proceeding, regarding residential evictions, may be conducted, and all deadlines are tolled, until after April 19, 2020. There are exceptions to the order. Commercial evictions are not affected by the March 19th Eviction Order. Also the commission of criminal acts by the lessee are an exception.

    This has been a PSA by Ol' Doc.

    That's awesome, but I think it should be rent free.
    Considering the circumstances and how many people who are able and willing to work but cant due to corporate shutdowns.

    Why do you believe its the Landlord's responsibility to provide free rent to you? Is your residence owned by the Chinese government? Did the Landlord cause you to loose your job? The county tax collector will sure have their hand out come October for taxes on the property.

    Landlords will lose rent. Their mortgages will default and the buyer of them if resold will get screwed. Will trickle down. Others can lose jobs too if the ' Landlord has to bit the bullet.'

    Delaying evictions etc. is very generous... But nothing is ever good enough. These fucks on CNN are literally ' encouraging a selloff' tomorrow. Why not? After all what does Jake Tapper give a shit if he is worth 19.8M or 11.9M. And I am sure Don Lemon's tears will be gone when the camera's shut off when he is drinking with all his Republican friends laughing his way to the bank. All those asshats will buy in cheap and get rich..

    These liberal media channels are going to cost the little guy more jobs than Trump ever will.

    Everyone wants a fucking handout !

    My Family owns 30+ houses in greater Houston, all thankfully rented- actually we have a 95% occupancy rate year round because we keep the houses up to "snuff." We are allowing rent to be delayed or partial paid but only for those who are temporarily unemployed and willing to prove it. We are fortunate that all properties are all PIF but our monthly maintenance fees are substantial since most homes are 10+ years old. As of right now my manager says we have 3 renters who are temporarily unemployed, 6 report that they are working from home, the rest are doing fine. We have been buying and trading houses for over 30 years.

    I feel safe in assuming that we will ultimately get paid and my family agrees and we have always been of the opinion that doing the right thing is it's own reward.

    I never said the landlord should take a loss. I think it should be like the month in history we lost . No rent, no property taxes, as well as mortgages.

    If landlords can't afford to waive rent, why don't they just get a real job?

    ^^^ you are kidding?

    Landlords still pay taxes, pay the mortgage, pay insurance and pay lots of other things, such as upkeep and also put cash into a self-fund to cover the biggies, roof repair & replacement; plumbing bills, new kitchen equipment, new hot water heaters, all the "minor stuff" same as home owners!

    And, in many cities, landlords may also be subject to rent control, zoning ordinances, license fees, etc.

    And federal income taxes, state and local income taxes in many jurisdictions.

    Texas corporation receipts taxes may also apply.

    No fun being a landlord when you also consider all the housing non-discrimination laws that may require extensive record keeping, accounting and legal expenses, marketing, advertising et al.

    ^^^ Yes, expenses can be deducted against income when you do your taxes. And depreciation.

    While many rental property owners might be making decent returns, don't call it always a picnic!

    Most landlords have real jobs, in addition to their investment property.

    I don't have it at hand but mortgage and property taxes are also eligible for deferment. If your income is affected by this quarantine and shutdown then at the very least you won't have to pay mortgage payments on this.

    This will be interesting because despite what the sanders crowd would have you believe landlords aren't heartless. Coupled with the ability to defer the mortgage most will understand these folks are temporarily out of work. I'd rather keep a good tenant who is down on their luck especially when they have a job to go back to.

    On the other hand people trying to take advantage and going "lol you can't evict me bro" are in for a rude awakening when this lifts. Landlords have long memories. Land lords will often not go through official eviction proceedings but if someone were to use this situation to pull some shit then you can be damn sure that eviction is going on your record.

    I already paid that bill, basically ' school taxes'; majority goes to this RRISD so the children of Round Rock of which none are mine ( vasectomy was before I moved to this neck of the woods) can have superior facilities and the very best of trained professionals teaching the spoiled brats! On my money.

    I want it back and I will pay it next year; can one retroactively request their taxes back? I know, I am shit out of luck...answer is ' No' , ' you're fucked'

    and fucked even harder when the opening bell rings tomorrow on Wall Street ( although computers will trade as opposed to the old fashioned open outcry).. I am sick of seeing red numbers on my portfolio.... When will they turn green again !!

    Yes, it is UGLY!!

    Tenants shouldn’t have to pay rent if they can show a legitimate hardship due to the virus, and landlords should be eligible to get their mortgages and taxes deferred.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but if you’re a landlord, the alternative is: kick the unemployed tenant out of your property, then pay to get the place cleaned, find a new tenant who can pay, risk having multiple interactions with multiple people during this search... and then you have no guarantee the new person won’t get laid off next month. Multiply this by every unit you own with a tenant who currently can’t pay.

    I don’t own property (anymore) and I’m hardly an expert but it seems like under the circumstances, the safest bet for landlords would be to work with the tenants they already have?

    And yeah, send everyone a check until this blows over. Call it socialism, call it whatever you want, but I was working in investments when the markets crashed in 2008. What we’re seeing today has a lot of eerie similarities and we’re going to see another recession if we don’t get money into some people’s hands and get them spending.

    If anyone needs me, I’ll be behind my couch, shielding myself from the blast I’ll undoubtedly get for this reply

    We've given out at least $2 trillion to the private sector which would traditionally re buy their stocks. Corporate America often does not do the right thing.

    40% of Americans make over $40k a year whereas the vast majority does not. Folks were already hurting prior and this virus has completely wrecked America.

    Something needs to be done to help American workers in addition to supporting corporations. Handouts, handouts and working together in this chaos is the only way to solve this.

    Truth is we are already in a economic recession and if not careful, we are heading towards an depression.

    Worse than that, the state steals a large portion of it and distributes it to other school districts. Then RRISD has to increase your tax rate, and then the state steals a portion of that.
