This Covid-protection law protection....to keep house/apartment renters from being kicked out for failure to pay rent....ended this morning.
If you go by the figures....it's estimated that around 15-million Americans are in this 'boat'. Landlords, I will predict...probably already have the legal documents drawn up, stamped, and will probably hand them to the local sheriff or police to enforce (I would suggest tomorrow morning...Monday).
A few states...like California for example, have some rules in place where this might be drawn out and hindered for a while, but the bulk of states have no delay rules.
So the question, if you think about, where you find 15-million Americans in sixty to ninety days?
My general prediction here goes three ways:
1. I think one out of ten will have some cash flow or third-party 'loan' where they buy a RV or trailer, and just go living off some public street, or city park.
2. About forty-percent of these people will approach friends or relatives....getting an invite for a period of time to live in their house/garage/basement.
3. The remainder will end up at some local church or charity operations....with a new enthusiastic view for home dwellings (temp fix).
The Biden crew in a mess? This whole Covid handling mess by Congress....handing out this no-eviction notice created a magnificent mess which has no reliable or simple answer.
As for the news media? I expect in two to four weeks....almost every evening will feature some story over the pitiful folks kicked out and camping out on the streets. Most of us will mute the story, and just avoid water-cooler discussions over the mess.
