(Video) Landlord Gets No Help In Eviction

Everyone has seen or heard one of the many commercials where a super-charged pitchmen tells them they can get rich quick by buying rental properties.

I'd advise anyone seriously thinking about getting into the rental business -- especially in Baltimore City -- to first carefully watch the video at the end of this piece.

Hmmm, all because the numbers are not on the house.

And the jungle underground will spread that word faster than this forum. By now every tenant in Mobtown knows this loophole.

It's really a sad situation. You KNOW the official had to know the property was the right one, because the numbers were on the adjoining houses, which the same landlord owned another property.

It was like they wanted to find a way not to do their jobs!!!!

That just really sucks. So they all remove their numbers and the po po will not assist in the eviction even if the landlord went through all the proper channels. :sheesh:

To me, I don't understand why they weren't fired. I meant, they did everything to thwart the eviction.

The mayor is a liberal,commie biatch. That's why they weren't fired. It would have pizzed off a liberal voting family to evict them.

You're probably right, but even so, here they were being taped and it didn't even phase them to offer no assistance.

There were three city employees tied up and accomplishing nothing!

What did he have to fear by being videotaped? He was doing God's work keeping a poor downtrodden black (presumably) family from being tossed out on the street by a rich property owner.

Ironically, the tenants, the unhelpful supervisor and the landlord were all black!
