A black male Leon Demetric Pasteure who’s in the Atlanta, East Atlanta, Decatur area was allowed to stalk and harass another Padmate who rejected him. There was even video recording of threats, police reports, photos or abuse, obsession and aggression and he wasn’t removed until the female Padmate obtained a protection order. He not only continued to harass her but threatened her life. The police were called to the home so many times and they still didn’t remove him. I’d love for this to be investigated to get his name out there. He had been previously accused of SA/ assault and robbery a full year before he moved into the Padsplit home.
Padsplit is only a symptom of a bigger problem. GOVERNMENT must tackle affordable housing and implement laws like no 3x rent requirement. No credit or background checks. No rent hikes. Housing is a necessity and a right to all.
@Ben-eh2bq - Amen. The 3x rent requirement needs to be outlawed under the Fair Housing Act. 2x rent might be understandable. But 3x is taking it too far when 1BR apartments start at $900. Everybody is going to be homeless in another 10 years. What needs to be "banned" are policies that block regular people from having a place to stay.
2:15 this is why it’s important for people to understand HOW to the platform works. You go through the same verifications as traditional housing. Including a background check and evictions. It excludes credit score and typical income requirements of 2 or 3xs the rent. Saying this to say, not all criminals have a record. And just like any other place of residence, you never know who you’re moving in at the end of the day. Let’s not ruin this for the people who genuinely need this.
Unfortunately, this is how the news will turn this in the government’s favor. They don’t want us to help each other. Bad people ruin it for a lot of people.
These are called Sleeping Rooms. Lived in one near Bankhead in Atlanta. New house with 3 rooms. We all worked and respected each other. Only bad part. Couldn't venture out after dark. After all. It's Bankhead Ave
@chenellebeautytv you can stay as long as you want. Some have programs if you live at just 1 without moving to different 1s for a yr theyll give you money for a actual apt
With growing housing costs’ and shortages what did you think was going to happen? Georgia has 3x the national average of incarcerations, if apartments don’t rent to felons and housing is too expensive where else are these people going to go? Don’t worry I’ll wait for you to think it through! 🤔
I am going to chime in on my experience with Padsplit in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I've been in 4 different properties. The four properties I was at had either 4 or 5 rooms. 5 rooms and 6 rooms total seems to be by far the most prevalent. A background check is done and I have never felt unsafe around any of my "Padmates". Usually the occupancy is at about 80 percent and at least one or two people don't have a car. Trash has not been an issue and the same laws apply to the Padsplit properties as others. Noise has not been an issue. I like the fact they are furnished and flexible.
That’s not Padsplit, that’s a nasty landlord. Only take in what still makes your home look good. Trash should be kept clean and the insides. Those are simply slum lords. Owners with access to their own homes instead of renting the entire unit should use those extra funds to keep the place cleaner and sanitized. Location, location, location. Don’t take these affordable places away from people in need. Fine the owners directly.
Trash bins being put out and taken in is listed as rules on PadSplit website. I guess the question is who is responsible for doing it since the host doesn’t live there?
Listen I stay in a mice infested padsplit. I have emails and screenshots of texting padsplit and host about and nothing is done. I vented to a neighbor to vent and he said ALL these padsplits are listed as residential property. Go to the tax office and report the correct number of bedroom units and it will change there tax code and put them out of business. I stay in a 8 unit property. If u google my address it say 3 bedroom house. They do that to stop avoid paying high taxes. Just report them!!!!!!!!!!
@@pagej8236 thats literally all that Amy company could do. Now does padsplit have crappy policies, yes but turning on them doesn’t help the people disenfranchised by the lack of government action to tackle affordable and viable housing for all
I know of 3 of these landlords in the charlotte market and all are black, not white, all own multiple properties and 1 of them owns near 100 rooms to rent. All do a background check and search court records for any pending issues. None of the homes are located where there is an HOA. They also make sure that only one of the two genders is represented in each home. This is a great option for people.
It shouldn't be more than 6 rooms. It gets annoying with more people.

I went through this twice with these homes. They are not safe for women for sure.
Scary
same problem with mine I have a felon from California that yells and harrases other members
@@moneygrowzwhat’s the point of a background check?
Padsplit is only a symptom of a bigger problem. GOVERNMENT must tackle affordable housing and implement laws like no 3x rent requirement. No credit or background checks. No rent hikes. Housing is a necessity and a right to all.
I'd even say that PadSplit's not even a symptom, but an imperfect solution to the underlying problem that the government has not yet addressed.
@@DUANEYAISER Padspilts need to be banned. period.
@@WalterLeeHamptonII How about just start with "more regulated?" People are obviously using them.

@@BlackFemaleAnd50Even if they ban the 3x the rent requirement, a lot of people still can’t afford it and might eventually face eviction.

Padsplit about to become a problem all over the country.

Hopefully, someone comes up with a better solution to affordable housing.

How long were you all able to stay? If you dont mind me asking.

There are rooming homes, halfway house and rehabilitation homes etc. There always been options 4 them.
In the country barns!😂
@@shar1202what you think PadSplit is??
Have you ever lived in one??

I’m interested thinking about moving to another state . What is the app called or where do you find pad splits
note to self, stop following the laws, no one else is and I don't want to lose.

Or just move? You should probably focus on bettering your own messed up situation vs trying to take someone down with you
@@shar1202 this only destroys your current chances at affordable housing. Padsplit does have crappy policies but taking them down doesn’t help
@memoirmystery I'm not down and I did move and now they are selling the property
@@Ben-eh2bq I moved
these types of homes should be BANNED in all neighborhoods!!!
The neighborhood doesn’t really look that good tbh 😂 I’m currently in a PadSplit just like this no drama but we got a eviction
Are u still in a padsplit now? If so how is it and how do you know which house is the best to book?
So, ya’ll want people to be homeless?
Right 💯
They want them to live in a clean safe environment. that does not destroy the neighborhood.
Growing pains.
The neighbors complaining should of moved in an HOA neighborhood if they wanted an certain look for their neighborhood and wanted rules enforced
Can ppl live its tough out here for ppl geesh
💯
Padsplit is dangerous and inhumane. Literally heard of someone having a knife pulled on them and all padsplit said was call the cops smh
that can happen anywhere lol are you serious?

Sounds like a money grab to me. The solution already exists in local zoning and building codes. Just enforce the law
