In this episode, we'll take a deep dive into the effects of the eviction moratorium and how it screwed renters and landlords alike.
If you're a renter or landlord this podcast might be of interest to you. The Supreme Court just recently overturned the CDC Eviction Moratorium, which has, in turn, will cause more issues for the housing market in the coming months and years. While it sounds like a good idea on paper, there are some unintended consequences that we need to explore together before making decisions about what's best for us as individuals and as a society.
The Housing Market: Are We Going to Experience Another Bubble?
The housing market is a delicate balance of supply and demand. By overturning the eviction moratorium, the housing market could see between 2 million and 4 million families being evicted. The federal government had set aside over $50 Billion in rent assistance. The problem is simply this, the monies cannot get distributed and now renters and landlords alike will be affected.
Show Notes:
Why the overturned eviction moratorium may be too little, too late for both renters, landlords
While eviction filings are expected to ramp up, it is unclear how quickly already backlogged courts can process new filings, or how effective the remaining patchwork of state and local protections will be in keeping renters in place until they secure rent relief.
