Real estate greed is killing NYC. Lets organize a protest and stop paying rent fore three months. Clog up the system and we will help prevent thousand of evictions.
Great idea dickheads. As landlord I still have a mortgage to pay on that property. I still have a family to feed. For 6 units by time everything is paid out, I make less than $100 profit per month. Don't pay me rent, the building gets foreclosed on, you destroy my credit, and you hurt my family.
Landlords are not the enemy, the banks are. You stop paying them and they will be forced to quit paying the mortgage. One way or another it will end with an eviction either by the landlord or the bank... Just go live on a friends couch if you don't want to pay rent.
Rent is artificially high. I agree.
I'm in.
