A lot of viewers have asked why did this happen...and the answer is simply Covid protections did the bulk of the damage here. From March 2020 until July of 2022, eviction hearings were not attainable except in a very small set of circumstances. After that, it is simply the court system being extremely backed up combined with the fact that we are dealing with a "Professional Tenant" who knows how to game the system. The sad part is the Landlord is a 90+ year old woman on a fixed income who depends on the rent to live - GWM
Its always good to contact the local law enforcement agency to let them know what’s going on before making entry. Give them the address of the property, the physical description of everyone present as well as clothing description of everyone present. That way, law enforcement is already aware of exactly what’s going on. In fact you can speak to the dispatcher or ask to speak to the Watch Commander. Trust me, the local law enforcement agency will greatly appreciate you doing it this way.
Elderly who end up not being able to afford their place and can't afford to move just stay until they get evicted. With no job, not enough income, sometimes physically unable to work don't want to be put to the streets. Sad.
@MultiTurbospeed If it were illegal, hundred of thousands of people would be homeless. What should be illegal is tenants that are abitual squatters. They move into a home and stop paying rent, forcing property owners to go through the long process of eviction. They repeat the process everywhere they move into. It is an intentional theft of another person's property, which causes the loss of income to the person.
@@sandraritch2947look up every renter you presume to be a squatter on local / state case net before renting to them. I just had a guy next to me be evicted who I didn’t rent to but knew had issues (obviously as I lived next to him). He did work but had well over 100k student loan debt - in fact he never left the apartment for the 6-7 years I was next to him - it doesn’t take a genius in a small city w a smaller floor layout to notice this stuff especially when they’re nuisances the first few years you live next to them ! Anyway. He was just evicted because a management company took over one year ago and raised the rent. His social security couldn’t pay for the now additional $250 required. I looked on casenet and realized that this occupant had multiple warrants in surrounding cities where he was using his social security to pay his rent that went up! How pathetic is all of this?!! Student loan debt on welfare and hiding in plain site ? Wayyy too many freedoms if you ask me.
@@sandraritch2947that’s what I think my evicted neighbor did. His name showed up on casenet at multiple other addresses where legal documents couldn’t be delivered. Now that I mention it, I too had mail from multiple other past tenants sent to me - next door - by previous tenants who didn’t get evicted but also did not forward their new mail address to the postal office. The swamp runs deep
The legal system didn't allow proper filing for non payment for a long time...they would put so many provisions as to why you can't proceed with an eviction case, and then when they finally start allowing standard cases, the wait times for every step in the process, especially with a professional tenant, would become so long its made this into a marathon eviction.
from above: I've never had an eviction happen in under 6 mos could you imagine trying to run a business when someone lives rent free on your property with more rights than you? just goes along with the upside down backwards world we live in. not even mentioning why I can't find ANYONE to work for $15 ?hr no one.
@@freebird1ification very close...someone who knows how ins and outs, including weaknesses of the Landlord-Tenant system. It simply is another factor which slows down the eviction process
They knew they were calling in a false burglary report. Get them charged. They didn't care what danger they put your team in, saying their house was being robbed! People like that don't deserve breaks!
Houses get burglarized, people get robbed. Example: people are in a bank, it gets robbed. If no one is in the bank, it's burglarized, same with the house. Except if the people are awake then they are robbed. Robbed is taking money or items by force. If the people are sleeping, it's burglarized.

@chillwill5080 it depends on why they are not paying. Did they lose their job because of Covid? Was their an order against eviction. You also have to remember, you could not rent property either during that time. So either way you were not getting money. Yes it wasn't fair, but it had to be done to save lives. I work in insurance. I think there should be Pandemic insurance or something where if you can prove you had absolutely no control over losing your job your rent or mortgage gets paid for a year and during that time you must show you are active in looking for a job or you can't because of a pandemic or something like that. I'm not talking about unemployment insurance I'm talking about you buy a policy to pay for the rest of mortgage. If you are found to be ripping off the insurance company, it's fraud and you go to jail. The money would not go to the policyholders, it would go to the bank or the landlord.
3 years and no payments? Unacceptable, they need to be evicted immediately. But like he said California law is tenant friendly. The laws need to be balanced for both tenant and owners
Never in California!! You have to understand the liberal wingnuts we have here. Look up Leaving California. You see the reasons why we are leaving this state. Be safe
@Death Knell I wouldn't do that. No way. People who take unfair advantage of others eventually pay for it. My sister-in-law went through Hell because of squatters. I would never do that to anyone. I bought my first house by saving my money and building my credit. Being fair and honest isn't virtue signaling, it's treating others the way you would want to be treated.
I owned a multi family home in Mass and it was a nightmare. People would move in and then never pay another dime. Thankfully, the housing court was on my side every single time. But it still took seven to nine months to evict them. Then you have to clean up the mess they left behind. Never again will I be a landlord.
it was ment to, and was part of the biggest wealth transfer in the history of the world and it was done under the huise of covie and now the world economic forum
That was one of the intended consequences of the lock downs. In order to confiscate private property, you go after the landlord's properties first and then the private homeowners later.
How the f*** can someone not pay rent for 3 years w/o getting evicted? When I rented an apartment, my stupid property management company claimed I didn't pay the rent (luckily, I keep my money order receipts). Within a few weeks, they put up a legal notice on my door. I went over to the office with my receipt and one of the employees looked into a file and found my paperwork which proved that I did, in fact, pay the rent. He apologized. I gave them a piece of my mind before I left. All they had to do was have some organized way to do the paperwork and COMMUNICATE with the other employees.
I had a lawyer friend that lived mortgage free for at least a year, before she took off to practice law in another State. She ran up her credit cards with cash advancements…paid her school loans off with that. Former friends now. #nointegrity. She let the house go back to the bank and declared bankruptcy.
Hell, if my rent is a day late I got the Property Manager calling me. I don't understand how a renter can still live in a property after going three years without paying rent. How can that not be a crime?
This would have never happened in Arizona. Here you can get someone out within a matter of weeks. Arizona is much more fair with the property owners.🌵✌🏽😎
I live near where this happened, the rent for units in this area average around $5000/month. Hope the deadbeat gets arrested for calling 911 when he clearly knew this was a civil action.
I’m still in shock at not paying rent for years. I work so hard to pay my mortgage and would be scared and embarrassed to have them roll up and kick me out.
Yep managed several places Sheriffs Office no help. The higher ups set policies for police and all of law enforcement . Good luck with woke liberal politicians.
I know someone like this. They had some financial problems during Covid. So they stopped paying rent. But they tried to use the whole “Covid” excuse to not pay rent to this day. This person is finally moving out this month cuz of a court order.
@@OnyxTiger about a year. It was a very long process to get evicted. And they were taken to court by the landlord and a judgement was handed down against them for about $7k. The landlord probably won’t ever get paid tho. This person I’m talking about only works part time and is now sleeping on a family member’s couch. And all their possessions are in storage.
@@trudykearney883 they were stupid because of Covid? I’ve seen Covid used as an excuse for alot of things, not sure being stupid is one of them lol. Stupid to get a vaccine maybe.
Where I live, if you don’t pay rent and have no communication with the landlord for 3 MONTHS they send the cops to evict you. If you have active correspondence with the landlord I think it stretches 6 months to a year before you can be evicted.
This all varies on the management company and location. California has become such a wasteland of disparity. I’m sure it actually doesn’t happen quicker in more urban locations but This location In the video is also a place where most property taxes are collected and rents are also supposedly up to $5 k / month. Maybe that has influence and perhaps why the deadbeat decides to call law enforcement to see what would happen. We don’t know if charges were subsequently filed against the tenant after the police discovered the agency had right to enter. Anyway
The management company I work for had a tenant who always paid her rent every month on the first by noon time no matter what day it was. One month she didn't pay anything, they let it slide because of her rental history. The following month the same thing, we thought it was strange so one of the managers went into her apt. The woman who lived there must have died in her sleep. This was a couple of years before I started working there, I was told she was really nice polite and friendly to everybody.
Sad thing is if you as the property owner did not pay taxes for the same amount of time, that property would have already been up for auction for back taxes! Just another reason NOT to ever live in California!
What irritates me is that property management companies are not worth the cost. It doesn’t take a Phd to learn the handful of laws, folks. As long as you stick to the laws 100% - you can manage a property by yourself. The key is ZERO tolerance for late payments, not following the terms of the lease. The tenant will learn real quick that you are not a pushover.
Best bet is to inform the sheriff’s office before you go in and send them paper work and who will be there, so they are aware. I appreciate the detail the lead officer takes my favorite part at (time stamp) 6:17.
They would probably hinder or stop the management from entering the property for another 3year siding with tenant. Absolutely do not call the useless california police if you are following the law.
Yep. These guys are the most unprofessional kooks I’ve ever seen. And they act like they are doing things “by the book” because they are dressed in uniforms for the property management 😂 the main guy narrating and talking to the camera gives off major creep pedophile vibes
That’s technically what they’re supposed to do for car repossessions as well but it seems few do that. Rightfully perhaps as we see the uptic of those w fewer and fewer tow truck drivers available tho.

I just retired from being a property manager in Oakland CA. I loved it. Very rewarding job. But at the same time challenging. God bless you and your company.
I disapprove of their "you're an owner, you will fail and you dont know anything" message from these guys. They could have pumped their business without insulting owners. If they can learn the ropes, so can owners. Fear of police or fear of procedure is not a reason to hire management.
I worked in Property Management in California for 30 years. Started from the bottom and worked my way up which included apartments, rental homes and mobile home communities. I must say in was very interesting and I started seeing a change in not only landlord tenant law but also the business becoming a cash cow for many out of state investors. Both tenants and residents could be kind and also vindictive as well, this is why I always kept it professional, stuck to the lease, rules, regulations, city ordinances and laws that applied, while keeping six degrees of separation. No discussion of personal business, family, or even my hobbies outside of work. When it came to community meetings and activities I was always there and available. I wanted to continue to work in property management; however things have become really unstable and unsafe. So applaud those who are still in the business and also treat their hard working employees right as well. God bless you all and thank you for sharing this story with us. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹🌹
The inside of the property has two layers which tell two different stories. The first story is of a normally run family household, with a whole shelf full of family photos, kitchen utensils etc. etc.. These people seem to have left at some point. The second story is of a different single person who moved into the property with his stuff in moving boxes and then proceeded to trash the place and possibly do some internet shopping scams.
There is nowhere in the state of Maryland where you can go 1 month without paying rent on an apartment. The day after your rent is due, the management will file the paperwork for notice of eviction. The court will hear the case within 2 weeks and decide in managements favor. Then, the sheriff department does the eviction.
its crazy the way the state of california operates compared to other states...especially its neighbors Arizona and Nevada...much easier to get things through the court system in those states
I own a tri-plex in Roseburg, Oregon and I have had a property management crew take care of it from day 1. Coming up on three years and all is good, and my occupants have nearly been top notch.
As a previous property owner/manager of 2 properties in Atlanta it's ridiculous the number of hurdles you have to jump through to get a non paying tenant evicted. The laws seem to assist these deadbeats all while draining the pockets of owners. The majority of people will do the right thing and pay on time and even a little late but those tenants from hell will make you question your sanity.
I let properties for 16 years. Calling for property inspection three times a year is about right for established tenants in good standing. For new tenants, maybe every other month until the landlord can get a feel for them. I made the mistake of not inspecting a rental for a long time because the tenant had been with me for a long time and was almost always good on the rent and upkeep. When I went to sell it, I discovered she had moved 2 generations of her family into the two-bedroom unit, the walls were nicotine-stained, and part of the floor was severely damaged due to a washing machine leak. Also, another tip: Always go to the rental armed (whatever "armed" means to you), even during inspections.
@@awpetersen5909 Yup. Only in America can a tenant feel so entitled to the point of taking up violence upon the landlord for trivial reasons. Unfortunately it has happened many times. I'm glad you agree.🤭
3 times a year? That is a little excessive. I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I would say 1 time per year is reasonable. I say this especially when property managers give you no incentive - I have lived in high rent places that were not cared for by the managers, they were often non-responsive with maintenance, and were always trying to cut corners. I know you have had some crap tenants - most have and I sympathize there and can't understand why people are so horrible to their homes. I have a house now, and I am happy to not have to live with managers who won't have proper pest control preventative maintenance, who won't pressure wash the complexes, who won't maintain good landscaping, trash removal, ground care (parking lots paved and cared for). When you put in the cheapest carpet imaginable, don't expect the tenant to have to replace or have it professionally cleaned. When you have beat up appliances and floors, don't expect it to fall on the client. Have your dryer vents and crawl spaces cleaned for the tenants.
How do the renters ever get another rental after the eviction? I've recieved every cleaning deposit back after leaving. I was told by tenants in a apartment complex i lived in that no one gets deposits back. I did,but i was shocked how the mgmt company opened every cabinet,ran their fingers over the tops of the doors etc... Never seen that before! Landlords here check your past history. Job,credit, how many people are moving in.
Tenant regularly receive close to 100% of their deposit refunded, especially in California. But these type of Tenants, who are evicted, will take advantage of private Landlords (like in this situation) who don't use basic screening techniques and background checks before leasing to a Tenant 🤷♀
I have been a tenant in the same apartment for 17 years. I was late in my rent payment by 2 days and was threatened by the apartment manager that I would be thrown out and would be raided by the police
@@brianjasta3994 It depends on the state. In Florida, you can be evicted in 8 days and it cost about $260. On the 8th day the sheriff shows up if you haven't left. Once he shows up you've got exactly one hour to get your shit out of the apartment. After that you are forcibly removed and anything left in the apartment belongs to the landlord.
@@bohammondlee7472 No, drastic is some dead beat living in your property thinking he can stay there for free. That's not what he agreed to and it's not what I agreed to. What he agreed to was...... his ass gets kicked out in 8 days if he doesn't pay his rent. How can it be drastic if that's what he agreed to. Drastic would be kicking him out the first day he missed rent. I'm sure it's considered drastic to scumbags who expect to live somewhere 3 years without paying rent.
Insane that state laws make it this difficult to get a tenant out. Took this professional management company 3 years. Imagine being a landlord who owns 1 or 2 properties. The state basically kills all incentive to rent out units except by mega property owners.
Its not even an issue of Professional Management Company or DIY Landlord...if you get the wrong Tenant in your rental, the laws are set up and the courts are so impacted that it is easy to drag out basic non-payment evictions for months or even years.
@Goldenwestmanagement Well a small time landlord is unlikely to have the cash reserves to cover mortgage, taxes and insurance over that time period and legal fees so yes it does matter.
@@lmitchell9023 So what does a small time Landlord or DIY Landlord do differently in this situation that a professional property manager doesn't do? ALL LANDLORDS have the same options when it comes to Tenant issues...
Noticed one of the Sheriff uniform said K-9. I would have asked kindly if they could take the dog through to ensure the residence was clear of illegal items. Cheers.
The USA is nuts. In my country anyone who is three WEEKS behind in rent has an automatic (documented) process started by the landlord. They are given four weeks to pay the rent up to date, otherwise they are OUT, with the full backing of the Courts and Police. Easy peasy...
My dad has been a landlord for over 30 years. We would never walk in without the police walking through first. We have walked into some crazy ass crap one to many times.
Legal eviction must always involve the Sheriff or other authorized armed law enforcement in order to protect both evictor and evictee. As far as I know, in most jurisdictions eviction is illegal without this critical element.
This isn't actually an eviction. It's specifically a visitation, used to verify the state of the home. I don't know the code in CA but its likely the visitation with due notice is lawful and doesn't require law enforcement present.
Next time you have an noticed entry like this, give the sheriff's department (or police department) a courtesy call at their business phone number. They'll make note of the call, attached it to the address via an electronic file, and when the tenant calls in a burglary, the notes that relates to your courtesy call will be available to the responding deputies. This will work with San Diego County Sheriff's Department, but may or may not be as effective with other departments. You might want to check with your local law enforcement agency to see how they would handle this sort of thing. 7:32
This is great feedback. We spoke to the sheriff’s dept about this and they said they will still “show up” but it will be under much different circumstances.
it is such a tragedy when something like this happens. Thankfully the Landlord was able to get the Tenants out and is currently in the process of converting her eviction case into a judgement for $ against these Tenants
There was a 2-year moratorium in most states, especially the liberal ones and then after that it would still take months to a year or more to get them out if they had a serious financial or medical injury. Sorry about your brother but I guarantee he has mental or physical issues.
Well it wasn't for lack of trying...between Covid delaying the ability to make any filings, and then the Tenant filing tons of motions to delay, it took forever before finally got the Tenant out!
It appeared there were multiple boxes of electronic items (same item) stacked in the property. This tenant is probably a thief and/or it's a fencing operation for stolen / shoplifted goods. Wish the Sheriff's Dept had looked closer (they were only there 5 minutes!) at that possibility. Oh well...chose The Peoples Republic of California to be a Landlord in, and you have chosen to sign up for B.S. like this!
I live in San Diego, it took this complex 2 years to evict someone. The problem is, they raise the rent 7% every year and it’s pissing off some tenants so they just stop paying the rent and milk it. These draconian rental increases is what’s causing tenant backlash. This was never the case years prior.
Wow 😲 here in Florida if you haven't paid your rent by the first week of the month the notices to pay up or vacate start. On the second week an eviction case is scheduled. By the end of the month the sheriff is already banging on your door 🤷 Here in Florida tenants never win for non payment of rent 🤦
Not paying in three years??? How is this possible?! I don’t care what type of public emergency, etc., that’s flat out squatting and the darn law allows you to do so!
Yeah and this is one of the many reasons why I left Residential Property Management after 9 years. Some people really did struggle financially with COVID but it was overwhelming how many people took advantage of the system. Then they would gaslight us and continue to live rent free. The courts were extremely backed up and almost never on the landlords side. Things are slowly getting better with the courts but not the people.
Not lying I almost got arrested for a property people were not paying rent at. If it wasn’t for the fact the person that lives upstairs was my cousin and let us in, things could have been much worst. We were told to leave and that we had to get a proper eviction. Yeah good luck in Philadelphia.
Tenant actually failed to show up to his court date (where he was going to lose)...and instead dropped off keys...after all his whining and nonsense - he didn't even bother to make an argument in court. I look forward to seeing the Landlord get the judgement on to the Tenants credit and have it follow them for life
Good lord, how do I get to live in a house for free for 3 years?? So what is the point of having a contract\lease if you have no legal course to ensure it's honored on the contract dates, not when it's "convenient" for a renter?
Unfortunately it has less to do with the contract and the Lease, and more to do with the way the Landlord-Tenant law adjudicates these matters. The court system has a process that allows these matters to be "stretched out" for long periods of time before actually getting a hearing date for the eviction
@@Goldenwestmanagement i agree I've seen how it's common for 3 hearings to be conducted before getting to a final order\judgment. I always heard growing up about how the government muddles up the entire process with unnecessary red tape, it's not until you witness the issues being continuously dragged on that it becomes crystal clear what they meant by the statement. I love the courts being thorough but the time management is obscene at the very least.
Landlords used to physically evict tenants and put their things to the curb without any reason or warning. It happened to my grandparents. My grandmother had just had gallbladder surgery. They carried her on her mattress to the curb and left her there. In those days, they would also evict them to prevent having to keep the property in liveable condition. That is why landlord/tenant laws were put into place. This tenant took advantage of the pandemic and wouldn't pay rent. The courts across the country got backlogged because of the pandemic. This landlord can still sue to get three years of back rent and all eviction costs. It can go onto the tenants' credit until it is paid back. What a terrible tenant. I hope this landlord gets restitution for all they put him through.
For paying rent late three day while I was in the hospital 🏥 with my daughter, they charged me $75 late fee. The funny they refused to take next month’s rent until I paid that late fee. I was in the hospital 🏥 for 6 months and I couldn’t get any help or support but I paid my rent in full even if told them my situation nothing changed. How this person lived there for three years no rent? What kind of system did this person used?
Let the tenant know before signing the lease that you feel the property belongs to a family member of a Mexican cartel person. Let it be known that they own a couple of different buildings around town and that they visit every once and a while.
How to F can that tenant can be still leaving there without paying rent for 3 year ???? For me almost got evicted just for been late a week after that court was settled and just pay my rent and will still here but was only a week pass and this person 3 years wow
Excellent example of how to set yourself up as the expert and presenting a potential problem you can can solve. As a digital marketer, I give you an A+
Im nervous when my mortgage auto pay is a day late to withdraw and here are people not paying for 3 years. I dont care what the issue is, at least communicate with the owner.
I'm not a lawyer and I definitely don't know California law, but since the tenant had left the property, I would think that everything left inside would now be abandon't property. Do you hire a contractor to clean out a property like this, or do they pay you, so that they can then sell some of those abandoned items?
If you have a tenant who hasn’t paid rent for three years, you’re either the worst landlord ever or you live in a jurisdiction with the worst courts in the world.
@@BusArch42 Of course they are. They are having their rights taken from them. Californians are stupid people who don't think before they act. They limit what landlords can do and when landlords have had enough and sell their properties, Californians don't have enough rentals to meet their demand. What do the Californian people do then? They decide to move and expect everyone else to fix their fucked up problems fon
In college I lived in a condo unit. Went to pay rent one month to the property manager/ owner and nobody answered the door and there were bullet holes in the door. Didn't hear anything from him for a couple of months then got a letter in the mail from a random bank saying to send the rent check there. Was sketchy. Didn't send anybody anything. People started moving out of the condos one by one. I ended up staying for 8 months and never paid rent to anyone. Found out later the owner was killed and a huge investigation had the property in limbo.
At 7:50 they explain how they covered all their bases before calling the SDSO, but why did it take 36 months to evict this deadbeat? I can’t imagine this property management company manages this entire complex and if they represent an individual owner I can’t imagine how or why they would wait so long to evict this tenant.
I don't understand why you did not notify the police yourself that you were about to make entry. This tenant is obviously adversarial, you should have made sure the cops knew what you were up to before you went in. I know the law says you don't have to, but it's still a smart thing to do.
We often contact the community policing line, which is PD and not Sheriff. This is something that we will most likely update with future inspections. However its rare (after 20 years this is probably the third time this type of situation has occurred) to have law enforcement called
@@thomasgentry6201 There is always going to be a civil service function of a sheriff or police department. You show them court ordered papers for eviction and they will be there. They get funded separately from the local courts.
It would seem like a good idea to at least let the sheriff know when making entry in a situation like this, or better yet to have them present at the time.
Every time I had to take over or enter an apartment, I notified the police in advance, and often they'll be there as I enter, and we'll do a "walk through" together. As we're walking through, my locksmith is changing the locks. Have a new locket ready, so it's faster. Have the police call the tenant right then and there, notifying them that that the apartment has been entered, and or if they've been evicted. Put their belongings in storage for the allotted "abandonment time" and record when you dispose of it. If they decide to pick it up, have them bring the storage fees, and have an officer there when they pick it up.
Or better yet, Instead of having property in some parasite infested shithole, have property in Florida where none of that shit is necessary. An eviction is 8 days and about $260. The sheriff shows up on the 8th day and if they have not left, they have ONE HOUR to take whatever they want to take. After that the sheriff removes them physically if they have to and anything left in the apartment belongs to the landlord to do with as he wishes.
How does a tenant, especially one who hasn’t paid rent in years, have the right to dictate who comes into the house. They have the legal right to throw your ass out. Laws and courts are failing miserably when it comes to innocent law abiding citizens.
this is the way things are in San Diego...go to Arizona, its different...go to Nevada, its different! every state and locale has different ways of handling non paying tenants. Where you live and the laws you vote for matter!
This is why there are limited real estate investors interested in the California market. Three years and hasn’t paid rent that is insane. Who’s going to make the owner whole? In Florida where I live from the time you file he eviction the tenant is out in 30-45 days done.
I work code enforcement in California in one of the wokest counties in the state if not the country. The law is absolutely tenant friendly and got much worse (aka even more friendly) after COVID. We are at the dawn of a new age. It's the Age of the Slum Tenant. I've got cases in my inventory where tenant hasn't paid in close to 4 years and they still can't extricate the person.
Hire 50 people to clear the stuff out and put in storage. Then sell it all. See how he likes it when someone takes advantage. I would have shut off the power and water.
In California, they made it very hard to evict during COVID. There was the shelter-in-place order. The state spent millions renting hotel rooms to help get people off the streets to try and reduce exposure before the vaccine was available. However, they stated it could be a welfare check. The sheriffs office should have done that not the property management. They put their staff in harms way unnecessarily. Also, they could have been disturbing a crime scene. Second, two and three inspections a year is invasive. I worked for a property management company and we did yearly inspections. You don't need to treat your tenants like children. That is why you usually have a manager and assistant manager on site as well as a maintenance crew for small repairs like leaky faucets or light switches not working. Tenants could ask for a work-order at any time. If it needed an outside contractor, the work was scheduled with the tenant to have access to their unit if they wanted to be present.
People in the United States are entitled they think everyone owns them something but the thing is nobody owes anything to anyone in the United States or worldwide if they want money and things they need to get to work.
Ohhh just watch other countries non paying loser renters, it’s everywhere well maybe not Russia or China who would’ve put you out in five minutes not in a pretty way either I’m sure. I’ve seen some of the Brits Irish etc entitled people and renters too… they’re everywhere.
Wow! What a beautiful unit and location to live rent free for 3 years! Amazing! He must have cost the property owner a fortune in lost revenue. He’s definitely taking advantage of California’s Laws….which are ridiculous. Y’all are amazing! GREAT JOB!

Its always good to contact the local law enforcement agency to let them know what’s going on before making entry. Give them the address of the property, the physical description of everyone present as well as clothing description of everyone present. That way, law enforcement is already aware of exactly what’s going on. In fact you can speak to the dispatcher or ask to speak to the Watch Commander. Trust me, the local law enforcement agency will greatly appreciate you doing it this way.
Why do people think they can live in someone else's property for years without paying, ridiculous.
bcz they clearly can....
Elderly who end up not being able to afford their place and can't afford to move just stay until they get evicted. With no job, not enough income, sometimes physically unable to work don't want to be put to the streets. Sad.

Renting should be highly illegal
@MultiTurbospeed If it were illegal, hundred of thousands of people would be homeless. What should be illegal is tenants that are abitual squatters. They move into a home and stop paying rent, forcing property owners to go through the long process of eviction. They repeat the process everywhere they move into. It is an intentional theft of another person's property, which causes the loss of income to the person.
@@sandraritch2947look up every renter you presume to be a squatter on local / state case net before renting to them. I just had a guy next to me be evicted who I didn’t rent to but knew had issues (obviously as I lived next to him). He did work but had well over 100k student loan debt - in fact he never left the apartment for the 6-7 years I was next to him - it doesn’t take a genius in a small city w a smaller floor layout to notice this stuff especially when they’re nuisances the first few years you live next to them ! Anyway. He was just evicted because a management company took over one year ago and raised the rent. His social security couldn’t pay for the now additional $250 required. I looked on casenet and realized that this occupant had multiple warrants in surrounding cities where he was using his social security to pay his rent that went up! How pathetic is all of this?!! Student loan debt on welfare and hiding in plain site ? Wayyy too many freedoms if you ask me.
@@sandraritch2947that’s what I think my evicted neighbor did. His name showed up on casenet at multiple other addresses where legal documents couldn’t be delivered. Now that I mention it, I too had mail from multiple other past tenants sent to me - next door - by previous tenants who didn’t get evicted but also did not forward their new mail address to the postal office. The swamp runs deep
Yeah sold my rental in Cal in 12. Couldn’t be happier.
Why and how can the courts let someone stay in someone's property for 3 years. That's insane.
The legal system didn't allow proper filing for non payment for a long time...they would put so many provisions as to why you can't proceed with an eviction case, and then when they finally start allowing standard cases, the wait times for every step in the process, especially with a professional tenant, would become so long its made this into a marathon eviction.
from above: I've never had an eviction happen in under 6 mos could you imagine trying to run a business when someone lives rent free on your property with more rights than you? just goes along with the upside down backwards world we live in. not even mentioning why I can't find ANYONE to work for $15 ?hr no one.

Sure they do ! Legs , arms , neck or perhaps even some ribs !
Houses get burglarized, people get robbed. Example: people are in a bank, it gets robbed. If no one is in the bank, it's burglarized, same with the house. Except if the people are awake then they are robbed. Robbed is taking money or items by force. If the people are sleeping, it's burglarized.

@chillwill5080 it depends on why they are not paying. Did they lose their job because of Covid? Was their an order against eviction. You also have to remember, you could not rent property either during that time. So either way you were not getting money. Yes it wasn't fair, but it had to be done to save lives.
I work in insurance. I think there should be Pandemic insurance or something where if you can prove you had absolutely no control over losing your job your rent or mortgage gets paid for a year and during that time you must show you are active in looking for a job or you can't because of a pandemic or something like that. I'm not talking about unemployment insurance I'm talking about you buy a policy to pay for the rest of mortgage. If you are found to be ripping off the insurance company, it's fraud and you go to jail. The money would not go to the policyholders, it would go to the bank or the landlord.

3 years? California doesn't allow that, this could've been done years ago
@Death Knell I wouldn't do that. No way. People who take unfair advantage of others eventually pay for it. My sister-in-law went through Hell because of squatters. I would never do that to anyone. I bought my first house by saving my money and building my credit. Being fair and honest isn't virtue signaling, it's treating others the way you would want to be treated.
I owned a multi family home in Mass and it was a nightmare. People would move in and then never pay another dime. Thankfully, the housing court was on my side every single time. But it still took seven to nine months to evict them. Then you have to clean up the mess they left behind. Never again will I be a landlord.
Not in Arizona🌵- we can get them out in 2 months - tops. They cannot get buy with being a professional tenant.🤨
Three years and no rent paid!!! No doubt this tenant really knows how to work the tenant laws to their benefit

How the f*** can someone not pay rent for 3 years w/o getting evicted? When I rented an apartment, my stupid property management company claimed I didn't pay the rent (luckily, I keep my money order receipts). Within a few weeks, they put up a legal notice on my door. I went over to the office with my receipt and one of the employees looked into a file and found my paperwork which proved that I did, in fact, pay the rent. He apologized. I gave them a piece of my mind before I left. All they had to do was have some organized way to do the paperwork and COMMUNICATE with the other employees.

I’d be in jail and that “tenant” would be in the hospital , rooms 11 through 26 !
Where I live, if you don’t pay rent and have no communication with the landlord for 3 MONTHS they send the cops to evict you. If you have active correspondence with the landlord I think it stretches 6 months to a year before you can be evicted.
This all varies on the management company and location. California has become such a wasteland of disparity. I’m sure it actually doesn’t happen quicker in more urban locations but This location In the video is also a place where most property taxes are collected and rents are also supposedly up to $5 k / month. Maybe that has influence and perhaps why the deadbeat decides to call law enforcement to see what would happen. We don’t know if charges were subsequently filed against the tenant after the police discovered the agency had right to enter. Anyway
Apparently that don't fly in California
The management company I work for had a tenant who always paid her rent every month on the first by noon time no matter what day it was. One month she didn't pay anything, they let it slide because of her rental history. The following month the same thing, we thought it was strange so one of the managers went into her apt. The woman who lived there must have died in her sleep. This was a couple of years before I started working there, I was told she was really nice polite and friendly to everybody.
Oh my god!

Sad thing is if you as the property owner did not pay taxes for the same amount of time, that property would have already been up for auction for back taxes! Just another reason NOT to ever live in California!
What irritates me is that property management companies are not worth the cost. It doesn’t take a Phd to learn the handful of laws, folks. As long as you stick to the laws 100% - you can manage a property by yourself. The key is ZERO tolerance for late payments, not following the terms of the lease. The tenant will learn real quick that you are not a pushover.
Best bet is to inform the sheriff’s office before you go in and send them paper work and who will be there, so they are aware. I appreciate the detail the lead officer takes my favorite part at (time stamp) 6:17.

They would probably hinder or stop the management from entering the property for another 3year siding with tenant. Absolutely do not call the useless california police if you are following the law.

I worked in Property Management in California for 30 years. Started from the bottom and worked my way up which included apartments, rental homes and mobile home communities. I must say in was very interesting and I started seeing a change in not only landlord tenant law but also the business becoming a cash cow for many out of state investors. Both tenants and residents could be kind and also vindictive as well, this is why I always kept it professional, stuck to the lease, rules, regulations, city ordinances and laws that applied, while keeping six degrees of separation. No discussion of personal business, family, or even my hobbies outside of work. When it came to community meetings and activities I was always there and available. I wanted to continue to work in property management; however things have become really unstable and unsafe. So applaud those who are still in the business and also treat their hard working employees right as well. God bless you all and thank you for sharing this story with us. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹🌹
The inside of the property has two layers which tell two different stories. The first story is of a normally run family household, with a whole shelf full of family photos, kitchen utensils etc. etc.. These people seem to have left at some point. The second story is of a different single person who moved into the property with his stuff in moving boxes and then proceeded to trash the place and possibly do some internet shopping scams.
There is nowhere in the state of Maryland where you can go 1 month without paying rent on an apartment. The day after your rent is due, the management will file the paperwork for notice of eviction. The court will hear the case within 2 weeks and decide in managements favor. Then, the sheriff department does the eviction.
its crazy the way the state of california operates compared to other states...especially its neighbors Arizona and Nevada...much easier to get things through the court system in those states
I own a tri-plex in Roseburg, Oregon and I have had a property management crew take care of it from day 1. Coming up on three years and all is good, and my occupants have nearly been top notch.
Great idea. I would be terrified as a landlord to handle that on my own. There are too many crazy people out there these days!
As a previous property owner/manager of 2 properties in Atlanta it's ridiculous the number of hurdles you have to jump through to get a non paying tenant evicted. The laws seem to assist these deadbeats all while draining the pockets of owners. The majority of people will do the right thing and pay on time and even a little late but those tenants from hell will make you question your sanity.
I let properties for 16 years. Calling for property inspection three times a year is about right for established tenants in good standing. For new tenants, maybe every other month until the landlord can get a feel for them. I made the mistake of not inspecting a rental for a long time because the tenant had been with me for a long time and was almost always good on the rent and upkeep. When I went to sell it, I discovered she had moved 2 generations of her family into the two-bedroom unit, the walls were nicotine-stained, and part of the floor was severely damaged due to a washing machine leak. Also, another tip: Always go to the rental armed (whatever "armed" means to you), even during inspections.

@@awpetersen5909 Yup. Only in America can a tenant feel so entitled to the point of taking up violence upon the landlord for trivial reasons. Unfortunately it has happened many times. I'm glad you agree.🤭

3 times a year? That is a little excessive. I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I would say 1 time per year is reasonable. I say this especially when property managers give you no incentive - I have lived in high rent places that were not cared for by the managers, they were often non-responsive with maintenance, and were always trying to cut corners. I know you have had some crap tenants - most have and I sympathize there and can't understand why people are so horrible to their homes. I have a house now, and I am happy to not have to live with managers who won't have proper pest control preventative maintenance, who won't pressure wash the complexes, who won't maintain good landscaping, trash removal, ground care (parking lots paved and cared for). When you put in the cheapest carpet imaginable, don't expect the tenant to have to replace or have it professionally cleaned. When you have beat up appliances and floors, don't expect it to fall on the client. Have your dryer vents and crawl spaces cleaned for the tenants.
Every other month is excessive I get 3 times a year
Don’t rent if u can’t trust
That would irritate tf outta me
How do the renters ever get another rental after the eviction? I've recieved every cleaning deposit back after leaving. I was told by tenants in a apartment complex i lived in that no one gets deposits back. I did,but i was shocked how the mgmt company opened every cabinet,ran their fingers over the tops of the doors etc...
Never seen that before! Landlords here check your past history. Job,credit, how many people are moving in.
Tenant regularly receive close to 100% of their deposit refunded, especially in California. But these type of Tenants, who are evicted, will take advantage of private Landlords (like in this situation) who don't use basic screening techniques and background checks before leasing to a Tenant 🤷♀

It depends on the state. In Florida, you can be evicted in 8 days and it cost about $260. On the 8th day the sheriff shows up if you haven't left. Once he shows up you've got exactly one hour to get your shit out of the apartment. After that you are forcibly removed and anything left in the apartment belongs to the landlord.

Insane that state laws make it this difficult to get a tenant out. Took this professional management company 3 years. Imagine being a landlord who owns 1 or 2 properties. The state basically kills all incentive to rent out units except by mega property owners.
Its not even an issue of Professional Management Company or DIY Landlord...if you get the wrong Tenant in your rental, the laws are set up and the courts are so impacted that it is easy to drag out basic non-payment evictions for months or even years.

Legal eviction must always involve the Sheriff or other authorized armed law enforcement in order to protect both evictor and evictee. As far as I know, in most jurisdictions eviction is illegal without this critical element.
This isn't actually an eviction. It's specifically a visitation, used to verify the state of the home. I don't know the code in CA but its likely the visitation with due notice is lawful and doesn't require law enforcement present.

Next time you have an noticed entry like this, give the sheriff's department (or police department) a courtesy call at their business phone number. They'll make note of the call, attached it to the address via an electronic file, and when the tenant calls in a burglary, the notes that relates to your courtesy call will be available to the responding deputies. This will work with San Diego County Sheriff's Department, but may or may not be as effective with other departments. You might want to check with your local law enforcement agency to see how they would handle this sort of thing. 7:32

This makes no sense that these property management go into the home but then the cops come later on & enter in??
It appeared there were multiple boxes of electronic items (same item) stacked in the property. This tenant is probably a thief and/or it's a fencing operation for stolen / shoplifted goods. Wish the Sheriff's Dept had looked closer (they were only there 5 minutes!) at that possibility. Oh well...chose The Peoples Republic of California to be a Landlord in, and you have chosen to sign up for B.S. like this!

I live in San Diego, it took this complex 2 years to evict someone. The problem is, they raise the rent 7% every year and it’s pissing off some tenants so they just stop paying the rent and milk it. These draconian rental increases is what’s causing tenant backlash. This was never the case years prior.
7% is not bad. In Florida, rents went up 30-40% in one year in 2021 going into 2022.
Wow 😲 here in Florida if you haven't paid your rent by the first week of the month the notices to pay up or vacate start. On the second week an eviction case is scheduled. By the end of the month the sheriff is already banging on your door 🤷 Here in Florida tenants never win for non payment of rent 🤦
This makes me feel better! I’m not a perfect homemaker, but at least it’s not that bad🤣🤣🤣
Not paying in three years??? How is this possible?! I don’t care what type of public emergency, etc., that’s flat out squatting and the darn law allows you to do so!
Yeah and this is one of the many reasons why I left Residential Property Management after 9 years.
Some people really did struggle financially with COVID but it was overwhelming how many people took advantage of the system. Then they would gaslight us and continue to live rent free. The courts were extremely backed up and almost never on the landlords side. Things are slowly getting better with the courts but not the people.
I don't know how people live like that. 😮
Not lying I almost got arrested for a property people were not paying rent at. If it wasn’t for the fact the person that lives upstairs was my cousin and let us in, things could have been much worst. We were told to leave and that we had to get a proper eviction. Yeah good luck in Philadelphia.
They finally evicted this tenant after 4 years in the property. Landlord got a judgment worth over $150k…finally the courts did something right
Tenant actually failed to show up to his court date (where he was going to lose)...and instead dropped off keys...after all his whining and nonsense - he didn't even bother to make an argument in court. I look forward to seeing the Landlord get the judgement on to the Tenants credit and have it follow them for life
It's dangerous for sure!! Praying that everyone landlord that has to go through this remains safe!!
Good lord, how do I get to live in a house for free for 3 years?? So what is the point of having a contract\lease if you have no legal course to ensure it's honored on the contract dates, not when it's "convenient" for a renter?
Unfortunately it has less to do with the contract and the Lease, and more to do with the way the Landlord-Tenant law adjudicates these matters. The court system has a process that allows these matters to be "stretched out" for long periods of time before actually getting a hearing date for the eviction
@@Goldenwestmanagement i agree I've seen how it's common for 3 hearings to be conducted before getting to a final order\judgment.

if I ever rent out a property I'm definitely using a good management company.
…with ties to the mafia…..
Landlords used to physically evict tenants and put their things to the curb without any reason or warning. It happened to my grandparents. My grandmother had just had gallbladder surgery. They carried her on her mattress to the curb and left her there. In those days, they would also evict them to prevent having to keep the property in liveable condition. That is why landlord/tenant laws were put into place. This tenant took advantage of the pandemic and wouldn't pay rent. The courts across the country got backlogged because of the pandemic. This landlord can still sue to get three years of back rent and all eviction costs. It can go onto the tenants' credit until it is paid back. What a terrible tenant. I hope this landlord gets restitution for all they put him through.
They won’t.
For paying rent late three day while I was in the hospital 🏥 with my daughter, they charged me $75 late fee. The funny they refused to take next month’s rent until I paid that late fee.
I was in the hospital 🏥 for 6 months and I couldn’t get any help or support but I paid my rent in full even if told them my situation nothing changed.
How this person lived there for three years no rent?
What kind of system did this person used?
California
B E A UTIFUL.
Thank you for teaching others!
May you be blessed.

Let the tenant know before signing the lease that you feel the property belongs to a family member of a Mexican cartel person. Let it be known that they own a couple of different buildings around town and that they visit every once and a while.
How to F can that tenant can be still leaving there without paying rent for 3 year ???? For me almost got evicted just for been late a week after that court was settled and just pay my rent and will still here but was only a week pass and this person 3 years wow
How do you get away with not paying rent for 3 years and not being evicted sooner? That's crazy!
Yep, CRAZY California, My Once Lovely Home State and Now RUINED:(
This is an EXCELLENT VIDEO I am going to send this to all my friends, I real estate❤😊
How someone can live in that clutter is beyond baffling.
Update he’s still squatting and the landlord who is 90 is struggling to pay bills. He owes 200k in back rent. Karma gonna catch him.
Another week of court appearances - we are over 560 days
How can someone not pay for 3 years? Why did it take so long to evict? Did this company not take him to court?
Excellent example of how to set yourself up as the expert and presenting a potential problem you can can solve. As a digital marketer, I give you an A+
Im nervous when my mortgage auto pay is a day late to withdraw and here are people not paying for 3 years. I dont care what the issue is, at least communicate with the owner.
Set the auto pay for a couple days earlier.
I'm not a lawyer and I definitely don't know California law, but since the tenant had left the property, I would think that everything left inside would now be abandon't property. Do you hire a contractor to clean out a property like this, or do they pay you, so that they can then sell some of those abandoned items?
If you have a tenant who hasn’t paid rent for three years, you’re either the worst landlord ever or you live in a jurisdiction with the worst courts in the world.
California
@@BusArch42 You just solved everything. California is one big hell hole
@@ericweiler6571 most LLs are selling their properties in California. It’s really bad
@@BusArch42 Of course they are. They are having their rights taken from them. Californians are stupid people who don't think before they act. They limit what landlords can do and when landlords have had enough and sell their properties, Californians don't have enough rentals to meet their demand. What do the Californian people do then? They decide to move and expect everyone else to fix their fucked up problems fon
He called the sheriffs to report burglary 🤦🏻♀️😂 some nerve 😂
So he must have been watching them.
This never would have happened if it weren't for the pandemic and the eviction moratoriums.
In college I lived in a condo unit. Went to pay rent one month to the property manager/ owner and nobody answered the door and there were bullet holes in the door. Didn't hear anything from him for a couple of months then got a letter in the mail from a random bank saying to send the rent check there. Was sketchy. Didn't send anybody anything. People started moving out of the condos one by one. I ended up staying for 8 months and never paid rent to anyone. Found out later the owner was killed and a huge investigation had the property in limbo.
At 7:50 they explain how they covered all their bases before calling the SDSO, but why did it take 36 months to evict this deadbeat? I can’t imagine this property management company manages this entire complex and if they represent an individual owner I can’t imagine how or why they would wait so long to evict this tenant.
Anybody can be locksmith with a grinder lol
I don't understand why you did not notify the police yourself that you were about to make entry. This tenant is obviously adversarial, you should have made sure the cops knew what you were up to before you went in. I know the law says you don't have to, but it's still a smart thing to do.
We often contact the community policing line, which is PD and not Sheriff. This is something that we will most likely update with future inspections. However its rare (after 20 years this is probably the third time this type of situation has occurred) to have law enforcement called
Notify police they tell you not our problem go to court. The police will wait till someone is injured or worse.
uh bro have you learned nothing? the law IS the problem here. Nobody should be able to get away with 3 years no rent, insane.
@@Sllice Three months MAX.
@@thomasgentry6201 There is always going to be a civil service function of a sheriff or police department. You show them court ordered papers for eviction and they will be there. They get funded separately from the local courts.
Can you imagine having rent free life?
This renter hasn’t paid rent in 36 months?!!
Wow!! Entitled people!!
I'm commiefornia you can
It would seem like a good idea to at least let the sheriff know when making entry in a situation like this, or better yet to have them present at the time.
So sorry for the owner
Every time I had to take over or enter an apartment, I notified the police in advance, and often they'll be there as I enter, and we'll do a "walk through" together. As we're walking through, my locksmith is changing the locks. Have a new locket ready, so it's faster. Have the police call the tenant right then and there, notifying them that that the apartment has been entered, and or if they've been evicted. Put their belongings in storage for the allotted "abandonment time" and record when you dispose of it. If they decide to pick it up, have them bring the storage fees, and have an officer there when they pick it up.
Or better yet, Instead of having property in some parasite infested shithole, have property in Florida where none of that shit is necessary. An eviction is 8 days and about $260. The sheriff shows up on the 8th day and if they have not left, they have ONE HOUR to take whatever they want to take. After that the sheriff removes them physically if they have to and anything left in the apartment belongs to the landlord to do with as he wishes.
How does a tenant, especially one who hasn’t paid rent in years, have the right to dictate who comes into the house. They have the legal right to throw your ass out. Laws and courts are failing miserably when it comes to innocent law abiding citizens.
this is the way things are in San Diego...go to Arizona, its different...go to Nevada, its different! every state and locale has different ways of handling non paying tenants. Where you live and the laws you vote for matter!
This is why there are limited real estate investors interested in the California market. Three years and hasn’t paid rent that is insane. Who’s going to make the owner whole? In Florida where I live from the time you file he eviction the tenant is out in 30-45 days done.
That's the whole purpose. The CA commies want to go after the middle class and the landlord class is the first to go.
I work code enforcement in California in one of the wokest counties in the state if not the country.
The law is absolutely tenant friendly and got much worse (aka even more friendly) after COVID.
We are at the dawn of a new age.
It's the Age of the Slum Tenant.
I've got cases in my inventory where tenant hasn't paid in close to 4 years and they still can't extricate the person.
How could a landlord let this go on for so long?
The f..king city allows them
Californian Democrats keep give tenants more rights
Not allowed to evict for over three years in areas of california
Covid tenant protections in california
Hire 50 people to clear the stuff out and put in storage. Then sell it all. See how he likes it when someone takes advantage. I would have shut off the power and water.
This seemed more like a infomercial than anything else. No resolution, just talk about how we can help manage your properties.
This visitation is part of the procedure and we also made sure to mention in the video the key details. Part 2 will be uploaded soon...
Informercials don’t have good sound tracks 🤷♂️
In California, they made it very hard to evict during COVID. There was the shelter-in-place order. The state spent millions renting hotel rooms to help get people off the streets to try and reduce exposure before the vaccine was available. However, they stated it could be a welfare check. The sheriffs office should have done that not the property management. They put their staff in harms way unnecessarily. Also, they could have been disturbing a crime scene. Second, two and three inspections a year is invasive. I worked for a property management company and we did yearly inspections. You don't need to treat your tenants like children. That is why you usually have a manager and assistant manager on site as well as a maintenance crew for small repairs like leaky faucets or light switches not working. Tenants could ask for a work-order at any time. If it needed an outside contractor, the work was scheduled with the tenant to have access to their unit if they wanted to be present.
People in the United States are entitled they think everyone owns them something but the thing is nobody owes anything to anyone in the United States or worldwide if they want money and things they need to get to work.
I think the renter works, he’s just freeloading based on whatever laws he can to not pay rent. He wrong, I agree with you.
We all have to pay for everything we want and need,. Some just want a free handout.
Indeed
Ohhh just watch other countries non paying loser renters, it’s everywhere well maybe not Russia or China who would’ve put you out in five minutes not in a pretty way either I’m sure. I’ve seen some of the Brits Irish etc entitled people and renters too… they’re everywhere.
The hummingbird in the background doesn't care who's house it is as long as there is food in the feeder.😅
The real question is how they waited 3 years to intervene.
Wow! What a beautiful unit and location to live rent free for 3 years! Amazing! He must have cost the property owner a fortune in lost revenue.
He’s definitely taking advantage of California’s Laws….which are ridiculous. Y’all are amazing! GREAT JOB!
