Very cheap . First house I bought in Thousands Oaks in 1983 for $100000 . Now it $ 950 000 .
The pictures shown while mentioning Clearlake are nowhere near Clearlake. Also, it's so cheap due to meth and crime. Couldn't pay me to live there.
Don't move to AZ, miserably hot
Or Blythe, CA!
What? It is FREE to live in CA. Land of FREE and not limited to homeless style. Free housing = Section-8, free food = food stamps, free money = welfare, plus free drugs = the illegal kind, free alcohol and more. I was a landlord and was forced to provide free housing. So I sold all my apartments and took my business outside of CA.
nick, It happened to me, too. Even after the eviction moratorium was over, my deadbeat tenant refused to move out; I had to sue her in court and that was not cheap. When she finally left, she trashed the unit so horribly, I could not get it back on the market until it's all repaired up. Then the county doubled my property tax. I'm done being a landlord.
@@marietta1335 I been in CA 56 years and love everything about it. But in the last 4-5 years, CA politicians made my life impossible and turn this Heaven to Hell. Especially that Newsom guy.
@@nickb2966 Nick, I understand. I have lived in California for 45 years and those were my most cherished years. But the eviction moratorium just about killed me, making me a collateral damage to the war on Covid.
My deadbeat tenant did not pay rent for two years, and when the moratorium was lifted, she still refused to move out.This was my basement apartment, so not only was the space free, I also paid for all utilities.
Even after ERAP paid for her arrears, she still would not move out, so I opted to have her evicted. It turned out she had a second rent relief application, so the court could not rule on my case until that application was turned down by the government. That was another six months of rent-free living for her.
When she finally left, she trashed the apartment so horribly, I could not get it back on the market until it was repaired. It was a slow, long repair because by that time, I was running out of money. I've spent all my savings and even borrowed money from friends to have the basement unit repaired.
Just as I was getting ready to advertise it, the county raised the assessment of my property and increased the tax by 100 per cent, because the repairs were considered "improvements." In effect, the government took back what ERAP had paid for the tenant's arrears.
I tried call a tax attorney for help, but all he said was "good luck," in a case like that,he said I would have to hire a private assessor to challenge the government, and it will cost. He would not take up my case because he was sure I would not win. He only takes up corporate tax cases.
I'm an 81 year old widow living on a fixed income. I tried to apply for EBT, but was turned down because my income was "too high." Little did they know all of that - every single cent of my fixed income - goes to mortgage, insurance and property tax.
I don't have anything left to pay for utilities, or food, or transportation. I have been begging from friends for me and my special-need-son's necessities.
So the only thing left for me to do is sell my property. It's not listed yet, but I have a realtor to take care of that. With whatever money I could gain from the sale, I hope it would be enough for me to get into a trailer park, and spend the rest of my days there.
It has been so traumatic for me, sometimes I don't even feel like talking to people. I became scared to interview tenants, so it's best for me to give up landlording.
Thanks, Nick, for reading my horror story. I hope you have a happier story to tell. God bless you.
@@nickb2966 I wrote a long reply, but now I can't find it. If I may repeat it, I totally sympathize with you.
I was a victim of the eviction moratorium that allowed my deadbeat tenant in my basement apartment not to pay rent for two years. I also paid for all her utilities.
Solano county, of course, paid for her arrears, but she would not move out after the moratorium was lifted. So I had to hire a lawyer to file for her eviction. But because she had a second application for rent relief, the court would not rule on my case until we were sure the application had been turned down. So that meant another six months of rent-free living for her, meanwhile I was scraping the bottom of the barrel for my own sustenance.
Before we proceeded with the court hearing, we had to go through a long process of mediation. My lawyer advised me just to give up collecting on the six months she owed me, just so she would move out immediately. Which I did. My tenant countered with her demands: She wanted a couple more months of free rent while she looked for a new place to live. She also wanted me to pay for her moving expenses and she wanted her security deposit back. I was so insulted, I almost had a heart attack.
When she was finally evicted, she trashed the place so horribly, I could not get it back on the market. I spent all my savings and even borrowed money from friends to have it repaired. When I was finally ready to have it re-occupied, the government suddenly dropped a bomb on me - they assessed my property so high and increased my tax by 100 per cent. I was told it would be impossible to challenge the government. It was like the government taking back what it had paid me for my tenant's arrears.
There were only two inquirers on my unit, and neither came back. I don't know why. I am an 81-year old widow, very deaf and English is my second language. The inquirers were sent to me by the housing authority for Section 8. They were black men who spoke Ebonics and I had a hard time hearing and understanding them. I have been so traumatized by my landlord experience that I could not communicate very well orally with people. I was almost scared to interview tenants.
I also applied for EBT, but was turned down because my "fixed" income was "too high." Little did they know that all that - every single penny of my income - goes to mortgage, insurance, and tax. They are auto-pay, so all I saw every month was the zero balance on my bank account. I was left with no money whatsoever for utilities, food, transportation, etc. I had to cancel my life insurance, my health insurance, and everything else on auto-pay. I became dependent on friends' charity, who provided me with food and other necessities. But I know that can't go on.
So my remaining option is to sell the house. I have a realtor taking care of the preliminaries. I hope that with the money I would gain, I'd be able to pay all my debts and leave me a little bit for a place in a trailer park wher I hope to spend the rest of my days. I can never believe it'd happen to me in California.
Thanks again, Nick, for reading my horror story. I hope you're story is happier. God bless you.
