They say, '"When you know better you do better". But the more I learn the process of how things work in life I feel like I'm being crucified for trying to do the right thing..

My Step-daughter is ODSP and has been waiting 13 yrs. for an opening. The system is broken. You have good advise thank you.

It’s crazy cause their are ppl that really need the help and can’t get it smh the wicked wins in this system

Be careful. I have been in a HUD building for thirteen years. It is almost impossible to leave. The buildings fall in disrepair. I mean totally get it if that's your last choice, but I would pursue a Section eight housing. This will provide you a choice. Yearly inspections under sec 8 will help keep your landlord to maintain your apartment. But Please don't rip off a private landlord. Section 8 clients have a bad reputation.

Scenario #1 I bet the gentleman didn't report because he was tired of waiting for approval and was about to get into apartment. People face the risk of being homeless while waiting for approval for section 8 or low income housing. Some are already homeless

Talz, you're cool AF for what you do *Fistbump*. Keep dropping jewels.

They should have Employees that know how to check applications thoroughly before entering the housing authority instead of waiting to catch it in a long run..The Employees committed fraud just as well as the tenant or wasn't thoroughly trained to check it from the door.Housing Authority be knowing so they just as Fraudulent as the people they think they getting away with it.The problem with this world is people be playing too many games instead of helping someone sooner rather than later when it's too late

Good information. How do i get in low income housing if i already own a home?

[hannahjosiah]

You should do a video about DEVELOPERS CREATING FRAUD. E.G. THEY BRING THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS FRIENDS AND ETC. HOW COME THEY DONT GET PUNISHED....

I do have a question. So I just got approved on a tax credit apartment in Georgia however they passed a law where renters requirements is for the income to be 2x rent. Which you know is still hard to afford anything with half of my monthly income going to rent alone. So how do I save? Also if I got a second job… how would that affect me?

I just spent 10 years on the net trying to get my Affordable Housing question answered. I think this would be a good subject for you to do a video on cause there is no other information online about it. Can a Landlord require someone that lives in an Affordable Housing unit to obtain Liability Insurance in order to get that Affordable housing unit? Same answer applies to Housing Choice and 40B properties....that might help you find the answer if you dont know it already.

Im a Senior and disabled. I was semi-evicted in Philadelphia. A vindictive landlord locked me out for 3 days. For being $200 behind. I got a legal aid, paid the late payments and court costs and I was let back in. Now I have a mark on my housing record. When I went to apply for another apartment, I was rejected because of this so-called eviction. I really want to move, but Im afraid to apply again.
What can I do?

Hello, I appreciate all of your videos. They have been so helpful. Can you please tell me do I need a copy of my lease? I did choose the option to do the credit check/background check but I noticed that it still says I need a copy of this year‘s lease unfortunately I didn’t renew the lease this year, will I still need a copy?

Well its not helping families when vaughan, ontario says u cannot have more than $75, 000 in assets! They cut it from 150, 000 the point is we want families and people to buy their own home, not get scared and hid their money and feel they can never leave! The rents are so high in the GTA that 75, 000 is nothing but 1-2 years worth of living expenses, rents 2000-3000 is insane. Explain how are we to cope without being thrown out? I need a place to save because if i pay market value I'd be on the streets poor. Could even lose my job

[ro-landocalrissian]

I’m curious, let’s say if you don’t currently have a job, but they opened up public housing applications, can you still apply?

[sharonhuery]

I Applied for affordable housing. I live with my friend for 6years. I didn't know that part of the process were I lived have to come out and take pictures of my friend house inside and out. I felt very overwhelming. I didn't know that if I was being scam. So I didn't continue the process. Thank You 💕 for your advice.

What if you get under 500 for gifts a month, Is that considered income? Would that change the tenant portion amount or no?

[debraaustin]
