I have little sympathy for her, or the new owners (who failed to report the illegal situation to the city immediately after becoming owners of the property).
My main take-away from all of this is that being evicted in SF is quite the feat, right up there with climbing Mount Everest or swimming the English channel. We should commend her for accomplishing something so difficult, despite all the people who told her it could not be done (read: tried to help her).
- iopq 13y agoWhy, because they were nice enough to still let her stay there? Oh yeah, I forgot, it's illegal so they should kick her out immediately.
- Crito 13y agoIt was illegal, and they made the decision to do it. Anything that follows that gets little sympathy from me; I believe that people should own the consequences of their actions in situations like that. Your illegal tenant refuses to pay you rent, leaving you with no legal recourse? Cry me a river. And make no bones about it, it wasn't a sense of charity that made them decide to let her stay. They were charging her rent (and in fact, attempted to raise it at least once).
- GhotiFish 13y agowell, actually not really. Even if you were a perfect tenant, there's nothing stopping you from getting evicted short of human kindness.
