► Hanao family update! We raised $12,116! The tenant is still in the family's home and it's been a process with the courts that have not been effective up until this time. The family has had enough and is now putting the home on the market and moving to Florida. They want to live in a jurisdiction where what just happened to them isn't possible under the law. They are very thankful to all of you who supported them! The money helped out tremendously with legal fees. The Hanaos and are ready to close this chapter and looking forward to moving forward. ► CLARIFICATION. This issue is complex as you might imagine and some things have come to light after I posted the video. 1. There are some programs available that cover payment for non-paying tenants such as the ERAP program. The thing is the tenant needs to prove Covid hardship and both the tenant and landlord have to fill out the paperwork. The tenant refused to do this when presented with the paperwork. 2. But now the Hanao family just wants the tenant--who works but doesn't pay, and causes lots of disruptions--to leave the home. They do not want to continue this relationship. 3. Many banks will allow for mortgage forbearance to wrap missed payments on the back of a loan. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae loans must do this but some loans outside of this framework don't need to (from my current research). The landlords did not pursue mortgage forbearance since they want to pay their mortgage down, and since they live in the home they think this is the responsible thing to do. 4. What the landlords want is the tenant to leave since the lease is up and they no longer want him in their home. They are in court now trying to evict the tenant. Another court hearing was held last week and the tenant skipped it like the first time. A third court hearing will happen on August, 11th. 5. As of the last check the GoFundMe campaign has raised over $8000! This money will go to lawyer fees and back rent that was never paid. The Henao family is very grateful for all of you who have helped! They stated they have a renewed faith in humanity. I will keep the money in the Gofundme for roughly another 6 weeks or so since a video can take off weeks after being posted and I want to make sure that all people have a chance to help. I will let you all know when the money gets transferred to the Hanao family and will post something on my community page when all is completed. And lastly... this was all my wife Natalia's doing! She suggested we do this and she set up the Gofundme so all credit is hers. Thank you all for caring!
@@RS-cm8gg this is a problem. There are alot of small good honest landlords who weren't born rich, who immigrated to this country working multiple jobs, 16 hours a day for example saving to buy property. Property with legal renting with fair rental price and unfortunately got bad tenants abusing a law living for free and putting the financial burden on the landlord. This is a big problem because nyc has alot of small landlord and tenant rentals. The landlords need protection. This is coming from a poor in pocket person who grew up in the hood, who works at a minimum wage factory job but always make sure i pay the rent. I am lucky to have a good honest landlord. It is not easy to be a landlord, depending on the property . The taxes on the property is a hell of alot of money in NYC. Plus the mortgage, insurace, when things break responsible for that. Landscaping etc. To me being a landlord seems like a headache. But anyway this a important issue for thousands of mom and pop, small landlords that need protected laws for them with bad tenants with jobs living free in their property.
i don't know ..how to get excess to all these , like this or the border, his not even in 1 million subs yet or his not to any BIG birds media connections or anything, just blows my mind how he doing this
They don't want the small guy to survive! They would love to take these properties in foreclosure. Eventually there will be the very rich and the poor! The middle class is getting squashed.
This is what I’m really starting to think. This in conjunction with what I’ve been hearing about so many businesses being closedown due to not having their permits recognized.
@@gogators5762 I suggest you read up as it's coming. Klaus Schwab the head of The World Economic forum says "You will own nothing and you will like it." Of course the elites will own everything.

Minute 17, "How come the government is helping the criminals?" Well said. This episode exposes the rot NYC is going through. It's really unfortunate and sad.
Unless the criminals can prove they are looking for work every week, they don't qualify for unemployment benefits in NY. How this tenant finds the time to do that when he "works two jobs" per the landlord, sounds a little fishy.
This is heart wrenching. I'm in Canada and this is happening here. I know many people in my neighborhood doing the same thing plus they're double dipping, collecting covid checks on top of welfare etc. Criminal minds are LOVING this.
Canadian as well and have not rented one resident because of similar situation here. I can afford to have a vacancy but can’t afford to have damage and not be able to collect rent. No wonder there is a housing shortage .
This is one the best ( important ) story’s I’ve came across on RUclips in a while. Funny how the mainstream media completely ignored ( avoid like the plague ) this factual story that’s impacting all kinds of good honest people. Let’s hope stories like this don’t suddenly disappear off RUclips like I’ve heard others have. Scary and we all know who we have to thank.
Well renters (young and broke and old and broke) and the working poor are likely the majority of the people she rents too so yes why would one expect any different. When I was a slumlord I used the renters as insurance and did not depend on them because I would have lost bad depending on them!!! But I was lucky enough to never have an income problem of my own. Your quote: ("What percentage of people are milking the system?" You know she wanted to say "most of them!" LOL!)
You think businesses aren't "milking the system" by exploiting every tax loophole to pay less taxes than someone who works a minimum wage job? All of you are worms.
@@thedebatemechannel4746 Worry about what corporation's are doing and make changes when necessary, but these are two different issues; The government is forcing one group of people to subsidize another. I guarantee you wouldn't let strangers live in your house for free.
And if they cannot get it through foreclosure, they send a realtor, doctor, and judge, to deem you unsound of mind then hand your things to guardianship/ conservator.
Wealth redistribution is exactly what this is, next these people will have to give their property to corporations for next to nothing and then rent it back from them.

And who complains about the end result. = Them on the precipice of policies, regulations as a result. The chosen ones on the up & up while everyone else on mean street. And who says many do not empathise with the situation. We do.
I have viewed a couple of your videos, but because of this episode, I'm subscribing you now. This eviction moratorium might be very helpful for some people in hardship, but those who abuse it should be caught up and hardly penalized.
Dude I've spent the last 4 hours watching your channel. You have something really special here. Love watching you talk with the NY Italians lol. Keep it up
I do have to say I blame the governor and the powers that be, and here’s why; Congress has already allocated $47 billion to help tenants and landlords. Only 3 billion has been distributed. New York was sent $2.7 billion, but almost none was given out.
So true! I lost my job in 2020 and submitted an application in the summer of ‘20 and never got a call back. There’s no number you can call to find out the status. I was on the brink of eviction but had a good landlord who worked with me. Eventually I paid back rent with stimulus and tax refund. It’s been a nightmare! Now my landlord is raising my rent by $60/ month and I can’t move because rent in other places is so high and they want your income to be 3x the rent amount.😕
We are in the same boat as these landlords. We have single tenant holding up 3 bedroom apartment and hasn’t paid rent in well over a year despite working and even at some points subletting the apartment. Would love to share our nightmare on your platform, this needs more awareness!
I'm a Colombian as well, we need to stand up for this family. Peter, please let us know if this family is willing to let the Colombian community step in to help take care of this. This breaks my heart, Ms Julieta reminds me of my mother who passed away recently, this can't go on.
May 2020, my tenant, a dentist told me on video that they would use COVID to steal from me. 70,000$ later and the court is still protecting these thieves.
One day he will have to answer for his actions.... Unfortunately in the meantime you are the one getting screwed. So sorry to hear about this. Seems like the one's who really need help are not getting it and the one's who can be okay is getting to save up their money.
you plaster links to that video over everywhere? Like on social medial and hire someone to hand out flyers outside her practice and literally destroy his reputation? I'm not talking about cancel culture. I'm talking about informing the public about this dentist's actions? That's not slander it?
That's what happens when there are so much fewer landowners than people who need somewhere to live. The real criminals are those who are keeping from others that which they aren't using themselves.

@@donlalo7079 No doofus, he's saying houses and land should not be a commodity; it shouldn't be up to the market because the market will always be against you. If we had kept building more homes and apartments it would still be attainable for home ownership. Houses used to cost less than 100k 40 years ago...now? 500k to 1.2 mil...yet the national wage has not kept up. It should be a crime to be a landlord. It shouldn't be a possibility.
I'm small landlord with one 2 family house and my tenant has not paid since December 2019 and have multiple unknown people living in the apartment since Nov 2019. We gave everyone notice to vacate through lawyer to leave the house by April 2020. Haven't seen the tenant since Sept 2020 but the unknown people still here till today. My elderly father has depleted his life savings and we are in very very terrible shape. These unknown people have often left water running, they drive high end luxury cars like 2019 dodge van and 2015 BMW. While we drive 2007 Toyota and 1999 van. We have been destroyed by new york and federal govt by imposing eviction moratorium.
The road to good prospects is also sometimes paved with hell, do you realise how many people will become homeless during the COVID pandemic if they landlords sought out eviction?
This is so heartbreaking. God bless this beautiful family. I hope your sorrow is quickly replaced with JOY and HAPPINESS!! Stay strong and know we are on your side.
Make no mistake - This is going on all over! I’m a paralegal in NH and tenants have milked the system like you wouldn’t believe! I wish these people the best NY is so much more expensive-I hope this hearing goes in their favor!
Similar story in Boston. I own one rental condo and my parents also one condo. I've always wanted to buy more and kinda blamed myself for not doing it years ago. Today I'm relieved that I didn't and my our tenants, thank God, are really amazing and nice people. I can sleep well at night lol

For a few months last year Texas did an eviction moratorium. My landlord was so thankful to get rent from my family. We kept working through it all, but my neighbors with the same landlord actually got increased income for their total disability income yet refused to pay any rent. My neighbors don't work, had increased income, refused to pay rent but bought new cars. My landlord is an older man who is just trying to make it like the rest of us. My husband and I didnt really have an income change at all. It was frustrating to see my neighbors buy new cars and refuse to pay rent. Thankfully Texas got rid of that moratorium.
Why does that make it ok to rob the landlord? They show their true colours. Criminals. I hope that guy will get what he deserves. He should get prison time.
I'm still baffled how both houses, all kin, are all disabled and receiving checks. What are the odds of 100% of 2 houses being disabled so they can't work. 6 in one house and 2 next door. With a trampoline in the front yard. Amazing. Abuse of the system if I ever saw it. Food stamps, meals on wheels every day, the works. While my tax dollars that I work hard for pays for it. If you are truly disabled, or struggling and need food stamps for a little while I get that, but shouldn't be a career plan. One of them is 18 said she can't work because she can't read. Yeah, not all jobs require reading. I've worked in restaurants and washing dishes, mopping floors, etc don't require reading.

I dont think landlords are struggling too much. Property values are up ~20% this year. On a 300k started home thats 60k in a single year on one property and thats the lower end house value
10:24 I can relate to what she said peace. I was going through the same thing she was going with my tenant and I am so glad they are gone and peace has returned to my home.
You hear stories like this all the time. Tenants don't pay rent but come home with a new car. It's a shame. Once the moratorium ends there will be such a back log of cases it might take 1-2 years to go through all of them.
@@skontheroad oh well, people like you never cared when the little people complained about wage theft occurring nationwide in their complaints for needing a larger minimum wage and more labor protections..

@@josephcote7405 Okay forward 5months later. The landlord revenge has rent gouged on ppl who have been paying their rent the whole pandemic . Rent has increased 29% . In Florida it's no cap on the amount of Rent they can charge you. Notice how the attorney mentioned Florida . Florida rental is pro owners and real-estate investors .
Peter, i love documentaries and yours especially. Once again, youve done an excellent job getting to the meat quickly and concisely while keeping it interesting. Great job.
And Cuomo world! This is directly because our state is governed by Democrats. How liberals still control office is mind boggling to me. They ruined this state.
Don't get mad at him. Blame on Americans who were yelling 'It's pandemic and you want to kick out familes who lost their jobs? you are a greedy piece of shit landlord' I hope Americans have some memories of what was going on just last year.
Even if they evict this tenant, the next one will do the same......law is more protective of criminals, that is the reason people are habitual offenders
Thankfully there is no more nation-wide moratorium, but New York stupidly voted to have their own moratorium in NYC extended until January, 2022, at minimum. It's really amazing if you look up the population on google, of NY State, and you see it's been basically flat for like 60 years or something. Meanwhile the population of many other states, and the USA, has grown tremendously. This state is garbage and wants to piledrive itself into the ground, I swear.
@@Taospark It's not landlords responsibility... if the gov't caused the job loss (via their response to the pandemic) then gov't should fully compensate landlords.... the contract must be honored.
I’m as liberal lefty as they come…but honestly , this eviction moratorium is fucking crazy. I don’t get it. How the hell was this supposed to be end? How the hell is some one who has experienced “hardship” going to make up 15 months of rent?
It's a property grab for the corporations to take over there will be no more small business owners to government will have control of everything agenda 21 will be implemented and covid-19 will take away our freedoms..
There not going to and the owner of the property if not payed for will lose it in foreclosure mostly because of people like you and who you voted for and supported remember once this all takes place the US you once new will be gone forever most deserve what's coming because of there complete stupidity
This is how far left the left has gotten. The right aren’t even close to that right. Joe Biden is closer to George Bush than Trump was. The parties flipped.

To cover their Salaries, Pension Fundsa. Premium Medical. Vacations. Holidays. Dental Insurance etc.. As they are not hurting. They got the golden parachute plan..
Hi thank you for the video. Finally, one video speaks up for landlords who are being abused by their tenants with permission from NY laws. Are there any updates from the family? were they able to sell? Did the tenant move out?
ERAP requires landlords to take the money and keep tenants for 1 year or refuse the money and evict tenants but you have to waive right by forgetting rent owed! So loose loose situation for NY landlords smh
Property tax, Meloroos tax, mortgage, HOA, insurance, maintenance. If you bought a property in few last years your rent covers all those payments. If you are lucky you may have some profit. If not--- you brake even or may be even upside down for awhile. If your tenant doesn't pay the rent -- you pay out if your pocket for some one to live there. If you don't pay out of your pocket--- you loose your property....
I knew I wasn’t the only one thinking this, different times. My grandfather would have these roaches out one day and have a respectable family who actually needs help and fallen on hard times moved in by sundown.people nowadays work harder on how they can scam and beat the system then the energy put into being a responsible person.
I used to work at 311 and the laws for landlords have been crappy for years. I've heard some crazy things from both landlords and tenants. The worst I can remember was a woman in her 90s who was being victimized by her non paying tenants. I didn't think it could get any worse but here we are.
Here in LA I have at least a few close friends that have the same issue with their rented out properties. You don't have to be a PhD in economy to realize this will be the next trigger of real estate crash. Two things are happening at the same time - prices skyrocket and moratorium on evictions. The only question is where i the critical mass

@@hippo658 Did you not hear the attorney, these renters have not payed rent since before the pandemic. People do not owe in the hundred thousands in 15 months. These renters are bottom feeders.
Great job, Peter! Thanks for your report that mainstream media never did. I am in California, my six tenants haven’t paid rent sixteen months so far and I can do nothing about it. Politicians are all lip-service, but landlords are all suffering of the eviction moratorium.
In the UK - the law favours the tenant if they say: "I can't pay rent I lost my job" to remove them, means big court costs - otherwise, it is a long road and there are people who abuse that with their selfishness
Landlords are like cats...cats that can't be herded. They just don't work well together. There is a whole spectrum of personalities and they don't unite well. You don't find that in other groups...like people playing on a sports team or school clubs etc. I believe it is because each landlord quietly puts together their own plan.
@@Dancing_Alone_wRentals True. I go out of my way to avoid other landlords, locally. Many are good people just trying to scrape by in later years (me). And others are criminals -- SEVERAL times I have caught them dumping furniture and debris on my properties.

This is such an important story to cover!! No one stands up for small landlords. Their story is heartbreaking and resonates with so many immigrants of NYC.
NYC Landlord-Tenant Courts have been like this for over twenty years. Once the moratorium is gone, it will still take two years to get rid of the tenants.

If they chase the tenants away, at least, they could get tenants who would actually pay. If the government says tenants do not have to pay the rent, then they government should be paying the landlords a certain percentage instead or freeze the taxes for the landlords. So sad for the landlords.
Shazally yes, there are certain programs where the government pays a portion of not all of the tenants rent, however, like the owner in the video mentioned, that tenant must fill out the paperwork. My guess is this tenant won't fill out the paperwork because he has 2 jobs & wouldn't qualify. 🤯
if you are going to help the tenants I don't understand why you wouldn't help the landlords. You are essentially forcing landlords to bear the cost and pushing them into financial ruin.
Financial Ruin??? Who cares lots of people got financially ruined. I am grateful I can eat everyday. And feel blessed i have my health. These people are way better off then most people on planet earth. And they don’t even realize it. That tenant sucks but you can’t kill him and life goes on. Feeling sorry for someone who is taking a hit on a investment is short sighted.
@@RS-cm8gg Who cares? Landlords have bills to pay too. As always the tenants have more rights. There should have never been no moratoriums. You can't pay you can't stay.
@tongw082 The government is helping landlords. There is a similar eviction moratorium and landlords can actually defer mortgage payments for 18 months. Disappointed that Peter didn’t mention this as I feel that’s a little misleading
Um... if landlords go into foreclosure... the properties can be picked up on sale by the bigger money, it's just a transfer of wealth world wide. pretty transparent.
An area of money sector that is of Ribba, similar to Fiat Money. Just wild number high numbers, 2 mill 40, 100 thou... More of a matter of a number crunch. How nice the Judges, and pandemic relief.
This breaks my heart when covid started i was so afraid i would run into this same situation but thankfully I have good tenets & still paid. Alot of people think landlords are made of money when alot are just average people like the Henaos who saved there whole life to buy one investment property & then it turns into a living hell because the government incentivizes this behavior 'helping" one person as it hurts another how is that fair if you really are in hard times the government should pay the landlord until the tenet pays the government back when they are stable again.
@Charles J. what are you going on about i should pay who? Your basically repeating what im saying in a different way you act like im not a tax payer aswell that is literally what im complaining about lol they shouldn't allow them to live rent free off the government when they are still working or making money & are able bodied when I said they should pay i even said they should pay the landlord. if they are allowing the tenet to live rent free i'd still have to pay my bills & taxes if a tenet refused to pay so why shouldnt they. I agree people shouldnt live off of our tax dollars when they are perfectly fine so not sure what your ranting about.
Exactly. We must see this for what it is. EVIL socialists/communists who WANT to break the system so that they can say, "Capitalism doesn't work we need socialism". And the final phase is "because socialism doesn't work we need communism". The "useful idiots" are mostly irresponsible people. But the true believers are actually evil communists. They know what they are doing.
Amen, they could easily find some community-minded Tongan or Samoan gentlemen who would gladly "persuade" him to move out. all for the price of a case of beer and a couple of large pizzas.
Many people ( not myself) would suggest the junkie rogue tenant gets a knock on the door from a couples of really big guys who most politely advise him it would be very much in his own nterest to quietly and without any drama move out within 7 days ? Thats how these problems have always been dealt with where I live . This poor couple are the classic case of perfect immigration ie very hard working all their lives and also they are too nice and law abiding to solve their problem by getting a little help from their concerned family and community .

In Detroit, too. I have one SFR that is 1/2 my income. Tenant has no lease and received notice before COVID ever came up. She has used moratorium to not pay rent since 3/20 or water. She's been working, except 1 month, when she received unemployment and stimulus, plus had her mom move in. 13 months after she moved in and 11 months after notice, she claimed she hadn't paid because of condition. No maintenance requests, nothing ever noted with move in inspection, no escrow set aside, and repeated requests for actionable items on my part were never responded to. (House was fully renovated inside 2 yrs before she moved in). She is not actually qualified for CDC moratorium, but local court simply refuses to hear cases - in violation of court rules. If I had been paying an atty, I would be buried in costs.
I had a tenant in Melvindale do that for a few months. Luckily she left and I'm now selling the house. The home values are up so I'm taking my profits and quitting the landlord game.
@@marcel84marcel I will have to put in money to get it back to baseline to sell, but I may well do the same.

This is sad and pathetic. I feel so bad for this couple. I live in Tennessee; if that dude tried that here, he would have a group of people at his house evicting him immediately!
This sounds like a great time for the "the mob" of the 80s and 90s to step in to protect these local business owners from this abuse of the system. Do some "convincing" to get these people to pay. Just a thought.
Yeah well they don't work for free. They will get rid of the tenant but then they will have the problem with the people that helped them and good luck getting rid of those :P
Remember people. Real estate is a great way to build wealth. However, you need to buy your properties in business, landlord and tax friendly States that have good population growth and job growth. invest in Arizona, Florida,Texas, Nevada etc. skip New York, California Oregon, Washington thousands of others. These States are expensive, high taxes, lots of regulations, rent control & not friendly towards business & landlords
or they can go to arkansas where they aren’t required to make any repairs at all by law. by all means they should go that way if things are so bad in NY
Yes, you are right. How does this help landlords who bought in the lawless states years ago? Businesses must rely on the government to enforce all laws without prejudice. In this case, they unlawfully prohibit a landlord from enforcing his contract and at the same time use his mortgage contract against him in order to force him to take the financial loss. It is wicked and unlawful in all respects.
As a former home owner in Queens, you have no rights as a landlord in NY. Tenants take advantage and don't pay rent for a year or more and theres nothing you can do about it. You have to pay the mortgage, taxes, water and sewer bills, gas for cooking and heating for the apartment with nothing coming in. Unfortunately its always hard working immigrant families like this that get screwed. It's one of the main reasons why two years ago I moved south. So sad.
Unfortunately, sometimes you have to get your hands dirty. I'd put everybody's stuff on the street. Pay the local thugs to take care of them for me. They'd move the next day 😂

We had to see this front yard of stuff for a week til a junk removal truck came to get rid of it.
You can only imagine the design to get rid of “business” home owners. Someone richer and more influential wants your rental and the income. Things that make you go “hum?”
No, the banks have to return overages on sales back to the lender. It’s a dumb myth that banks want to foreclose on lenders, they don’t. However the politicians are unethical because of hey have figured out there are more renters that vote than landlords
You believe that everything is rigged, do your homework my friend, the BOGGY MAN for you is everywhere, Chill! You'll not get cancer or some dreaded illness. Stay sane and do your homework.
You ALWAYS find this hidden stories, this is such an interesting angle. That Colombian couple deserve so much better, they've made a great life only to have it ruined by a bad tennant.
Funny, but in reality the Landlord must maintain the property regardless of whether rent is received or not. But still funny....especially if you visualize what you said. " Yeah, Mr Tenant...looks like you need to ease off that carry out delivery food for a while".
If you have a massive portfolio, having some losses can help offset gains elsewhere. But what good is a write off if you rely on the cash flow as income and you own one property? You can't get it from a bank, and stocks have their own risk. Ultimately for many, real estate is a way for some cash flow and a slowly appreciating assets. That model is being ruined. Small mom and pop owners will usually offer better terms and service than large mega rentals. There is so much overhead in the large corps that it will result in higher rents for everyone else that does pay. Just like all the stimulus checks and unemployment feeding inflation. The government ultimately subsidizes the irresponsible.
They do the write off but they still need to make the monthly payments to keep their property and good credit. If its not a "corporation" and most small time landlords are not, the write off helps only in income limitations and tax brackets. You never recoup the money, not even close. In addition to not getting the rent add another 15-25% to that loss of rent sum because thats what it will cost to evict the SOB MotherEffin tenant!
This is why I sold my 2 family home in NJ, the government really does not care and is slow to take any action even when there is evidence against the tenant. I heard from a landlord that was impacted by this moratorium and could not get a non-paying tenant out and the tenant actually bought a new car during this time.
I feel so awful for this couple. And the lawyer was correct. Florida protects the landlord for this very reason. I will be praying hard for this couple. They worked hard for this. It is just not right.
As a landlord of a residential property in Md., what I had to do was sell the property. I played the system and claimed a COVID Hardship forcing me to liquidate the property. I don’t know how N.Y. law works with that but I’d be looking into that. I now own two beach vacation rentals which obviously don’t qualify for COVID relief BS. I feel for these landlords and especially the small time landlords like myself. Here in my state it’s causing a huge shortage of rental properties and an up tick in real estate sales and that market has been so hot that there’s becoming a shortage of inventory in that market. Welcome to liberal America folks.We voted them into office, it’s our own fault.

► Hanao family update! We raised $12,116! The tenant is still in the family's home and it's been a process with the courts that have not been effective up until this time. The family has had enough and is now putting the home on the market and moving to Florida. They want to live in a jurisdiction where what just happened to them isn't possible under the law. They are very thankful to all of you who supported them! The money helped out tremendously with legal fees. The Hanaos and are ready to close this chapter and looking forward to moving forward.
► CLARIFICATION. This issue is complex as you might imagine and some things have come to light after I posted the video.
1. There are some programs available that cover payment for non-paying tenants such as the ERAP program. The thing is the tenant needs to prove Covid hardship and both the tenant and landlord have to fill out the paperwork. The tenant refused to do this when presented with the paperwork.
2. But now the Hanao family just wants the tenant--who works but doesn't pay, and causes lots of disruptions--to leave the home. They do not want to continue this relationship.
3. Many banks will allow for mortgage forbearance to wrap missed payments on the back of a loan. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae loans must do this but some loans outside of this framework don't need to (from my current research). The landlords did not pursue mortgage forbearance since they want to pay their mortgage down, and since they live in the home they think this is the responsible thing to do.
4. What the landlords want is the tenant to leave since the lease is up and they no longer want him in their home. They are in court now trying to evict the tenant. Another court hearing was held last week and the tenant skipped it like the first time. A third court hearing will happen on August, 11th.
5. As of the last check the GoFundMe campaign has raised over $8000! This money will go to lawyer fees and back rent that was never paid. The Henao family is very grateful for all of you who have helped! They stated they have a renewed faith in humanity. I will keep the money in the Gofundme for roughly another 6 weeks or so since a video can take off weeks after being posted and I want to make sure that all people have a chance to help. I will let you all know when the money gets transferred to the Hanao family and will post something on my community page when all is completed.
And lastly... this was all my wife Natalia's doing! She suggested we do this and she set up the Gofundme so all credit is hers.
Thank you all for caring!
If only that tenant tried those shenanigans in Colombia 🇨🇴 where the homeowners are from !
Lot more problems then a landlord not collecting rent. Focus on them.
@@RS-cm8gg this is a problem. There are alot of small good honest landlords who weren't born rich, who immigrated to this country working multiple jobs, 16 hours a day for example saving to buy property. Property with legal renting with fair rental price and unfortunately got bad tenants abusing a law living for free and putting the financial burden on the landlord. This is a big problem because nyc has alot of small landlord and tenant rentals. The landlords need protection. This is coming from a poor in pocket person who grew up in the hood, who works at a minimum wage factory job but always make sure i pay the rent. I am lucky to have a good honest landlord. It is not easy to be a landlord, depending on the property . The taxes on the property is a hell of alot of money in NYC. Plus the mortgage, insurace, when things break responsible for that. Landscaping etc. To me being a landlord seems like a headache. But anyway this a important issue for thousands of mom and pop, small landlords that need protected laws for them with bad tenants with jobs living free in their property.
@@ClingToFaith1 lots of people have problems. Sorry they invested in a rental property and are not getting return on their investment.

"What percentage of people are milking the system?"
You know she wanted to say "most of them!" LOL!
Well renters (young and broke and old and broke) and the working poor are likely the majority of the people she rents too so yes why would one expect any different. When I was a slumlord I used the renters as insurance and did not depend on them because I would have lost bad depending on them!!! But I was lucky enough to never have an income problem of my own.

That's the plan
And if they cannot get it through foreclosure, they send a realtor, doctor, and judge, to deem you unsound of mind then hand your things to guardianship/ conservator.

In NYC when you are a landlord you are getting profit from the tenant in their eye of the court. Its a socialist court.
Well people don’t want to wake up from their slumber
I have viewed a couple of your videos, but because of this episode, I'm subscribing you now. This eviction moratorium might be very helpful for some people in hardship, but those who abuse it should be caught up and hardly penalized.
Dude I've spent the last 4 hours watching your channel. You have something really special here. Love watching you talk with the NY Italians lol. Keep it up
I do have to say I blame the governor and the powers that be, and here’s why;
Congress has already allocated $47 billion to help tenants and landlords.
Only 3 billion has been distributed.
New York was sent $2.7 billion, but almost none was given out.
Tenants don't care and landlord can't apply without tenant's cooperation.
If a landlord accepts the aid they aren't allowed to evict the tenant or raise rent for a year.
So true! I lost my job in 2020 and submitted an application in the summer of ‘20 and never got a call back. There’s no number you can call to find out the status. I was on the brink of eviction but had a good landlord who worked with me. Eventually I paid back rent with stimulus and tax refund. It’s been a nightmare! Now my landlord is raising my rent by $60/ month and I can’t move because rent in other places is so high and they want your income to be 3x the rent amount.😕
Exactly there are a lot a lot of money out there to help tenants and landlords but bureaucracy is killing the system
It was given out to Cuomo and Blasio's friends
We are in the same boat as these landlords. We have single tenant holding up 3 bedroom apartment and hasn’t paid rent in well over a year despite working and even at some points subletting the apartment. Would love to share our nightmare on your platform, this needs more awareness!

For a few months last year Texas did an eviction moratorium. My landlord was so thankful to get rent from my family. We kept working through it all, but my neighbors with the same landlord actually got increased income for their total disability income yet refused to pay any rent. My neighbors don't work, had increased income, refused to pay rent but bought new cars. My landlord is an older man who is just trying to make it like the rest of us. My husband and I didnt really have an income change at all. It was frustrating to see my neighbors buy new cars and refuse to pay rent. Thankfully Texas got rid of that moratorium.
Why does that make it ok to rob the landlord? They show their true colours. Criminals. I hope that guy will get what he deserves. He should get prison time.

I saw the writing on the wall when early on my tenant started having "guests" over . I said I was selling the house. I avoided a nightmare. I am selling moving to a red state

What the Democrats do best. Then when the parasite kills the city and State. They look for a new host to support them..See Detroit, Flint, California, etc.. All run by Democrats. As they can reach into other peoples pockets any time they like. Then bailout the Banks, Airlines, Auto Industry, Pharmacy, Healthcare etc...And all it cost you is $2.7 Trillion a year. To cover their Salaries, Pension Fundsa. Premium Medical. Vacations. Holidays. Dental Insurance etc.. As they are not hurting. They got the golden parachute plan..
Hi thank you for the video. Finally, one video speaks up for landlords who are being abused by their tenants with permission from NY laws. Are there any updates from the family? were they able to sell? Did the tenant move out?
The worst part is once this individual is evicted, they will have to pursue another expensive lawsuit to try to get the money back
Tbh they won’t
That will be impossible to get money back..that is out of the window..although Joe from Naples is the best debt collector
ERAP requires landlords to take the money and keep tenants for 1 year or refuse the money and evict tenants but you have to waive right by forgetting rent owed! So loose loose situation for NY landlords smh
The fact that the government allows tenants to skip rent but still forces small landlords to pay property tax is insane!
American capitalism. You are all going down.
the landlords could get jobs
We the people own exactly nothing, the government owns everything
@@writenamehere0000 this is LITERALLY the opposite of capitalism…
Property tax, Meloroos tax, mortgage, HOA, insurance, maintenance. If you bought a property in few last years your rent covers all those payments. If you are lucky you may have some profit. If not--- you brake even or may be even upside down for awhile.
If your tenant doesn't pay the rent -- you pay out if your pocket for some one to live there.
If you don't pay out of your pocket--- you loose your property....
Peter, well done - thx for sharing! Landlords need to be heard!
Hire an Italian who looks like he's in the mob and have him "talk "to him. He will
Peter should dress like hitman. And talk to him
Get a Colombian or Ukrainian to pay him a visit. It really works.
I knew I wasn’t the only one thinking this, different times. My grandfather would have these roaches out one day and have a respectable family who actually needs help and fallen on hard times moved in by sundown.people nowadays work harder on how they can scam and beat the system then the energy put into being a responsible person.
@@ursulabklyn_mia6148 right this is NYC what are these people doin
You think Joe Pesci is available?
I used to work at 311 and the laws for landlords have been crappy for years. I've heard some crazy things from both landlords and tenants. The worst I can remember was a woman in her 90s who was being victimized by her non paying tenants. I didn't think it could get any worse but here we are.
Real news, how refreshing. Mr. Santenello your work is very important. Entertaining & insightful. Your voice is so important. Thanks
Here in LA I have at least a few close friends that have the same issue with their rented out properties. You don't have to be a PhD in economy to realize this will be the next trigger of real estate crash. Two things are happening at the same time - prices skyrocket and moratorium on evictions. The only question is where i the critical mass
Now this is REAL news for once.
I dont know if the Mafia is still active in NY, but I'd give thier representitive a call.
wtf..... anyone thats blaming the renters are crazy!!!!!!!!!! blame the gov but you have some nerve coming at renters like that. lets kick you to the curb in a pandemic.
pLandemic
@@hippo658 Did you not hear the attorney, these renters have not payed rent since before the pandemic. People do not owe in the hundred thousands in 15 months. These renters are bottom feeders.
Great job, Peter! Thanks for your report that mainstream media never did. I am in California, my six tenants haven’t paid rent sixteen months so far and I can do nothing about it. Politicians are all lip-service, but landlords are all suffering of the eviction moratorium.
In the UK - the law favours the tenant if they say: "I can't pay rent I lost my job" to remove them, means big court costs - otherwise, it is a long road and there are people who abuse that with their selfishness
Screw landlords.
I would never rent my property out in New York…it will just sit until i come back to it
Landlords need to be United to sue the government.
Landlords are like cats...cats that can't be herded. They just don't work well together. There is a whole spectrum of personalities and they don't unite well. You don't find that in other groups...like people playing on a sports team or school clubs etc. I believe it is because each landlord quietly puts together their own plan.
@@Dancing_Alone_wRentals True. I go out of my way to avoid other landlords, locally. Many are good people just trying to scrape by in later years (me). And others are criminals -- SEVERAL times I have caught them dumping furniture and debris on my properties.
@@Duke_of_Prunes Amen. I used to sit on a city board composed of landlords and city officials. I saw how many landlords were people who I didn't want to turn into. Ever since those days I stay clear of most landlords.
Private ownership will be a thing of the past if this keeps going
They should!
Quality of the content is rising, keep up the good work Peter
This is such an important story to cover!! No one stands up for small landlords. Their story is heartbreaking and resonates with so many immigrants of NYC.
NYC Landlord-Tenant Courts have been like this for over twenty years. Once the moratorium is gone, it will still take two years to get rid of the tenants.
Sickening! Low lifes milk the system! No wonder I am f$$cking leaving democrat party for Independent!
Ain't that the truth. They'll protect scumbags who work and refuse to pay. Other countries would say bye scum... And kick their ass on the street
Yeah they also take giant rents for dumps they rent out.
@@KP-go4rp You obviously like Corrupt, Lying Billionaire Bernie Sanders!!!! He's hiding out in the White House with Killary and Obumma. They don't relate to real people since they're all so RICH. Hopefully, this very nice couple will be helped by an "honest" lawyer. Welcome to the New America.
@@MichaelZuino The mob once took care of problems that had no common sense to it!
Thanks for reporting. Ordinary decent people seem to be the ones who get hit the hardest, don't they? So heartbreaking.
Thank you for sharing this story. Your work is truly invaluable.
If they chase the tenants away, at least, they could get tenants who would actually pay. If the government says tenants do not have to pay the rent, then they government should be paying the landlords a certain percentage instead or freeze the taxes for the landlords. So sad for the landlords.
Shazally yes, there are certain programs where the government pays a portion of not all of the tenants rent, however, like the owner in the video mentioned, that tenant must fill out the paperwork. My guess is this tenant won't fill out the paperwork because he has 2 jobs & wouldn't qualify. 🤯
if you are going to help the tenants I don't understand why you wouldn't help the landlords. You are essentially forcing landlords to bear the cost and pushing them into financial ruin.
Financial Ruin??? Who cares lots of people got financially ruined. I am grateful I can eat everyday. And feel blessed i have my health. These people are way better off then most people on planet earth. And they don’t even realize it. That tenant sucks but you can’t kill him and life goes on. Feeling sorry for someone who is taking a hit on a investment is short sighted.
PURE SOCIALISM.
@@RS-cm8gg Who cares? Landlords have bills to pay too. As always the tenants have more rights. There should have never been no moratoriums. You can't pay you can't stay.
@tongw082
The government is helping landlords. There is a similar eviction moratorium and landlords can actually defer mortgage payments for 18 months. Disappointed that Peter didn’t mention this as I feel that’s a little misleading
Um... if landlords go into foreclosure... the properties can be picked up on sale by the bigger money, it's just a transfer of wealth world wide. pretty transparent.
An area of money sector that is of Ribba, similar to Fiat Money. Just wild number high numbers, 2 mill 40, 100 thou...
More of a matter of a number crunch. How nice the Judges, and pandemic relief.
My prayers go out to the Henao family
I pray a hedge of protection around them
Don't give up
Amen🙏
Same here as a Brooklyn small apartment landlord .... this system is a joke
You guys need to stop voting democrat..
Peter thank you for showing the reality and not shying away from these topics
This breaks my heart when covid started i was so afraid i would run into this same situation but thankfully I have good tenets & still paid. Alot of people think landlords are made of money when alot are just average people like the Henaos who saved there whole life to buy one investment property & then it turns into a living hell because the government incentivizes this behavior 'helping" one person as it hurts another how is that fair if you really are in hard times the government should pay the landlord until the tenet pays the government back when they are stable again.
Most people kept paying their rent
@Charles J. what are you going on about i should pay who? Your basically repeating what im saying in a different way you act like im not a tax payer aswell that is literally what im complaining about lol they shouldn't allow them to live rent free off the government when they are still working or making money & are able bodied when I said they should pay i even said they should pay the landlord. if they are allowing the tenet to live rent free i'd still have to pay my bills & taxes if a tenet refused to pay so why shouldnt they. I agree people shouldnt live off of our tax dollars when they are perfectly fine so not sure what your ranting about.
Hello beautiful
Exactly. We must see this for what it is. EVIL socialists/communists who WANT to break the system so that they can say, "Capitalism doesn't work we need socialism". And the final phase is "because socialism doesn't work we need communism". The "useful idiots" are mostly irresponsible people. But the true believers are actually evil communists. They know what they are doing.
@Charles Jan get off the crack pay attention
They should make him an offer he can’t refuse……..
There is...and always WILL be....a need for the mafia. I"d be calling them to rectify my problem....
@@dancalmpeaceful3903 how so ?
What offer? He is living free in a nice house! c'mon
Amen, they could easily find some community-minded Tongan or Samoan gentlemen who would gladly "persuade" him to move out. all for the price of a case of beer and a couple of large pizzas.
Many people ( not myself) would suggest the junkie rogue tenant gets a knock on the door from a couples of really big guys who most politely advise him it would be very much in his own nterest to quietly and without any drama move out within 7 days ?
Thats how these problems have always been dealt with where I live . This poor couple are the classic case of perfect immigration ie very hard working all their lives and also they are too nice and law abiding to solve their problem by getting a little help from their concerned family and community .
Thank you so much Peter for covering this topic w/small landlords. I'm a small landlord/owner myself & think it's horrible to see ppl like this going through times like these.
I will be donating to their cause.
We live in the greatest country in the world this should not be happening.

I love that poster. "NO PRESSURE, NO DIAMONDS"
In Detroit, too. I have one SFR that is 1/2 my income. Tenant has no lease and received notice before COVID ever came up. She has used moratorium to not pay rent since 3/20 or water. She's been working, except 1 month, when she received unemployment and stimulus, plus had her mom move in. 13 months after she moved in and 11 months after notice, she claimed she hadn't paid because of condition. No maintenance requests, nothing ever noted with move in inspection, no escrow set aside, and repeated requests for actionable items on my part were never responded to. (House was fully renovated inside 2 yrs before she moved in). She is not actually qualified for CDC moratorium, but local court simply refuses to hear cases - in violation of court rules. If I had been paying an atty, I would be buried in costs.
I had a tenant in Melvindale do that for a few months. Luckily she left and I'm now selling the house. The home values are up so I'm taking my profits and quitting the landlord game.
@@marcel84marcel I will have to put in money to get it back to baseline to sell, but I may well do the same. Ironically, her pro bono lawyer is with an affordable housing group, and all they've succeeded in doing is drive all small landlords out. So, good luck with corp overlords looking to max profit and extract wealth.
This is sad and pathetic. I feel so bad for this couple. I live in Tennessee; if that dude tried that here, he would have a group of people at his house evicting him immediately!
This sounds like a great time for the "the mob" of the 80s and 90s to step in to protect these local business owners from this abuse of the system. Do some "convincing" to get these people to pay. Just a thought.
Is ist Not possible to sue the government? What is the Justification
for paying property Tax ?
How cute! You’d make a great dictator by forcing struggling people to pay for others INVESTMENTS. Fing clown stfu
Yeah well they don't work for free.
They will get rid of the tenant but then they will have the problem with the people that helped them and good luck getting rid of those :P
So you want criminal intimidation and threats. Glad you revealed how worthless you are.
@@Greenskies321 I only wish I could take your car or home, use it as I like and make you pay for it all. Youre the clown.
So potentially on purpose to force owners to sell at below market value
This is really sad because so many people are going through this same nightmare.
Remember people. Real estate is a great way to build wealth. However, you need to buy your properties in business, landlord and tax friendly States that have good population growth and job growth. invest in Arizona, Florida,Texas, Nevada etc.
skip New York, California Oregon, Washington thousands of others. These States are expensive, high taxes, lots of regulations, rent control & not friendly towards business & landlords
Perfectly said! 🇺🇸
or they can go to arkansas where they aren’t required to make any repairs at all by law. by all means they should go that way if things are so bad in NY
Texas has the one of the highest property taxes dont come here!
I live in NYC and I buy out of state as well. The more landlord friendly, the better.
Yes, you are right. How does this help landlords who bought in the lawless states years ago? Businesses must rely on the government to enforce all laws without prejudice. In this case, they unlawfully prohibit a landlord from enforcing his contract and at the same time use his mortgage contract against him in order to force him to take the financial loss. It is wicked and unlawful in all respects.
As a former home owner in Queens, you have no rights as a landlord in NY. Tenants take advantage and don't pay rent for a year or more and theres nothing you can do about it. You have to pay the mortgage, taxes, water and sewer bills, gas for cooking and heating for the apartment with nothing coming in. Unfortunately its always hard working immigrant families like this that get screwed. It's one of the main reasons why two years ago I moved south. So sad.
Polska Duma!
Unfortunately, sometimes you have to get your hands dirty. I'd put everybody's stuff on the street. Pay the local thugs to take care of them for me. They'd move the next day 😂
@@TheVendeada101 Until you run into the wrong guy (wrong tenant) who will pay far more dangerous thugs to get back at you. I understand that sometimes good people are forced to take justice into their own hands but in reality if you take justice into your own hands, so can the bad guy. It´s a possibility that unfortunately everyone needs to keep in mind.
@@wrestlingterrier8366 I know the game. I'm well prepared for that smoke. We can go to war Idc. Be damned some one wants to try and jerk me and let it slide. Let's play then 💯.
The tenants play dirty smh…when they have to leave they won’t leave nicely they will set the house on fire house themselves, get their dogs to defecate everywhere, completely destroy the place from inside out…I know from experience.
This happened to our backyard neighbor. Guy was a trashy jerk who took advantage of this situation. The Vietnamese lady had to go to court. Police came to oversee the removal of his property; most of which he did not remove; he claimed it was all broken. We had to see this front yard of stuff for a week til a junk removal truck came to get rid of it.
I would love to rent an ap and have these people as landlords, they are so nice!
In front of cameras...
The tenant I paid to leave so I could sell the house said I was the best landlord he ever had!
You can only imagine the design to get rid of “business” home owners. Someone richer and more influential wants your rental and the income. Things that make you go “hum?”
A&E Holdings?
HOA much...?
They (Elite)want the whole city of NY...they are not going to pay for it..this is the New World Order
Very informal interview for someone who is a lawyer
If the landlord fails to pay the mortgage, bank gets the house, i'm sure the banks and the gov't worked together on that one.
No, the banks have to return overages on sales back to the lender. It’s a dumb myth that banks want to foreclose on lenders, they don’t. However the politicians are unethical because of hey have figured out there are more renters that vote than landlords
@@houserental5424 you fucking NAILED IT right there. That’s the reason, the only reason for this

@@houserental5424 right on!
You ALWAYS find this hidden stories, this is such an interesting angle. That Colombian couple deserve so much better, they've made a great life only to have it ruined by a bad tennant.
No; they had it ruined by Democrats and their pro-criminal, anti-working people policies.
Hidden? This mess has been going on for a year and a half already!
Tenant: Hey Landlord, my toilet is overflowing.
Landlord: Tough shit.
Funny, but in reality the Landlord must maintain the property regardless of whether rent is received or not.
But still funny....especially if you visualize what you said. " Yeah, Mr Tenant...looks like you need to ease off that carry out delivery food for a while".
@@Dancing_Alone_wRentals exactly 🤣
6k in the go fund me already.......I'm heartened by the generosity of strangers
These landlords should do a write-off...Like corporations do. On their taxes. It's a loss!
If you have a massive portfolio, having some losses can help offset gains elsewhere. But what good is a write off if you rely on the cash flow as income and you own one property? You can't get it from a bank, and stocks have their own risk. Ultimately for many, real estate is a way for some cash flow and a slowly appreciating assets. That model is being ruined. Small mom and pop owners will usually offer better terms and service than large mega rentals. There is so much overhead in the large corps that it will result in higher rents for everyone else that does pay. Just like all the stimulus checks and unemployment feeding inflation. The government ultimately subsidizes the irresponsible.
They do the write off but they still need to make the monthly payments to keep their property and good credit. If its not a "corporation" and most small time landlords are not, the write off helps only in income limitations and tax brackets. You never recoup the money, not even close. In addition to not getting the rent add another 15-25% to that loss of rent sum because thats what it will cost to evict the SOB MotherEffin tenant!
Wow Janet, what an ignorant statement!!!
cant write off agains property tax.. you must be poor
If only it was that easy Janet Jones.
This is why I sold my 2 family home in NJ, the government really does not care and is slow to take any action even when there is evidence against the tenant. I heard from a landlord that was impacted by this moratorium and could not get a non-paying tenant out and the tenant actually bought a new car during this time.
I feel so awful for this couple. And the lawyer was correct. Florida protects the landlord for this very reason. I will be praying hard for this couple. They worked hard for this. It is just not right.
Where is the second video with the other landlords?
As a landlord of a residential property in Md., what I had to do was sell the property. I played the system and claimed a COVID Hardship forcing me to liquidate the property. I don’t know how N.Y. law works with that but I’d be looking into that.
I now own two beach vacation rentals which obviously don’t qualify for COVID relief BS.
I feel for these landlords and especially the small time landlords like myself. Here in my state it’s causing a huge shortage of rental properties and an up tick in real estate sales and that market has been so hot that there’s becoming a shortage of inventory in that market.
Welcome to liberal America folks.We voted them into office, it’s our own fault.
That was just a hundred words of you blowing your own trumpet 🤣🤣🤣 be humble bro
It's not liberal America. It's America, period! Doesn't matter who is in power.
Here is south carolina they have rent programs free rent to single.moms etc but no low rent homes for rent none notone left all rented or sold.
