[AsburyPark] Re: Attack in AP last night
Anyone else get a call (recording) on their phone about how there have been lots of breakins (car and home) and to be alert, report suspicious activity etc... The only way it ends is for everyone to call the cops when they see anything AND for the cops to give people a hard time. When the area gets too hot, the bad guys will go elsewhere. We also need landlords and such to want to bring there places up to code and rent to people who are not junkies and dealers.. And they need to break up the school system and integrate with Ocean or another wealthier school district. Really section 8 should be broken up state-widec and spread out everywhere. As long as we keep our poor segregated, poverty begets more poverty and it really doesn't change. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, nobepeymay nobepey...@... wrote: yikesreading this for the first time.

[AsburyPark] Re: Attack in AP last night
Your point about landlords hits the nail on the head: We need an ordinance that holds absentee landlords responsible for the habitual criminal behavior of their tenants. You think these landlords don't know that they're renting to criminal deadbeats? If the market for that kind of lousy tenant dried up, the bad tenants would need to find somewhere else to live. Good tenant = Good neighbor. Bad tenant = Bad neighbor. Landlords are running a business, and they should be held responsible for the detriment that their business places on the surrounding community.

1. As for Section 8 Landlords - (or any landlords) - since I am one in Ocean Twp, I had regular tenants for 17-20 years - until I wound up with 4 dead beats at one time. I slowly accepted Section 8 or Housing Voucher tenants. Out of my 7, 5 are covered by the state/county. I guess I am lucky AND I am concerned about my neighbors - I have all good tenants - no police calls etc - they pick up their garbage and bug me if something is wrong. 2. Section 8 housing should be having TWO inspections - one from the program and one from the towen when they issue a CO. Section 8 housing is supposed to get inspected EVERY YEAR - prior to a lease being renewed by the program. They are supposed to abide by the HQS (Housing Quality Standards) see my site: http://www.rentlaw.com/section8/hqs.htm These are HUD standards. 3. Ocean Twp - we already have a very integrated school district and we ain't gettin any funding from the state. I told one of the admin we SHOULD become an ABBOTT District. I'll stop the rant now - we pay about 93% of our school budget vs AP residents paying 6% of the operating budget for their school system. 4. CAMERAS. not on tough spots - but scattered around town. 5. Now with my 2 kids both working on the BW I reminded them NOT to leave alone. They had a buddy system or the PD was around to watch them get back to their cars since they try to park WEST of Kingsley or pay for the lots. They PD has been been good 6. CODE ENFORCEMENT - start by eliminating hazards like the empty building on 8th and Kingsley - half boarded, half open windows - same on 1st. 2nd, 4th and haul all the building materials out west there is no immediate need. Enjoy another hot day. Yahoo!

Over a year agp I started one of the larger TENANT SCREENING SERVICES for SMALL LANDLORDS in a partnership arrangement with TransUnion's SmartMove - http://rentlaw.mysmartmove.com There's a few thousand small landlords using it now. The problem is you know have many landlords that are landlords by default - they got stuck with a house and can't get out or the banks are running them. Then you have the tru hardcore landlord who doesn't care other then the rent. Section 8 landlords can evict for non-compliance with the program (any landlord can) - nuisance tenants, drugs etc... Cost you $37 to file in Monmouth county on your own. But if it's an LLC - you need a lawyer. That whole system is screwed up and protect the lawyers. And the tenant can get a free lawyer, you can't.
