Airbnb host: After 17 months, 'she's still there' | Banfield 

So, if they invited her in, i wonder why it doesn't work when they kick them out...Makes no sense at all...

My attorney had filed for an EVICTION for POSSESSION.

It happens every single day across the country. Once someone becomes a "resident" (which happens in an average of 30 days after moving in) you must then give them notice to vacate. If they then choose to not leave you must take them to housing court to evict. I'm not sure if the courts have ever caught up from the backlog which came from the pandemic.

Thank you for sharing the info it's important people know.

A lot !! More than u would imagine ..

hmmm, sociopaths don't feel shame

'should be deeply ashamed of herself' people that do things like this have -0- shame, entitlement is more like it

Typical news nation clip with no introduction or background on the case. Thrown into the segment, and trying to put it together like a puzzle with context clues. 🙄 grrrrrr.

@@Diametricallyopposed00you’re right cause the only reason I know is because of TikTok

I’m sorry, but how old are you that you have such an infantile way of thinking?

I was thinking about 50.

Your neighbor sounds like a fun time (not being sarcastic)

Yes, she's really screwed now because eventually she will be removed and she's going to have a heck of a time getting someone to rent to her. I'm sure she will now be banned from Air BnB's site. Also, the story is going to make it very clear to Air BnB owners why you need to limit the length of stay for your guests. I think he can probably win the legal battle in the end if he can show the message where she requested 6 months stay. He also may have witnesses to her behavior when he tried to fix a problem in the unit. I think it's also suspicious that she refused to be placed in a hotel for a week. Clearly, she knew that could create an argument that she left and her time restarted again, giving him a legal right to tell her to leave at the 6 month mark.

Are you in California? Was is before 2019?

It took my neighbor nearly 2 yrs and 48k in the hole. California laws are shit

Many people in East LA have pit-bulls and need $. I would pay them, and be there to open and close the door until she screams, "I will leave!". Only then would I have them pull the dog out.

The police will come and force you to let them back into the property. No court involvement is needed.

@@soorenaaslani7491 Then I would force the Cops to arrest me and put me on trial. I want to see American Law put me in prison for taking back what legally belongs to me. I'd be certain to make a Media Circus out of it too to get Public Opinion on my side. The Main Reason why squatters take over someone's house is because they know that most Americans are Door Mats just like YOU.

Ha ha yes! And get the neigbours involved...parties all the time...

She'll find some crazu ass excuse and sue for noise nuisance 😂

Pretty cool idea. There could be complications though. If it’s “parties all the time”, I imagine that they would also be renting the space for parties that weren’t children’s parties. In that case wouldn’t it be possible that she (Elizabeth) would just bring a case of beer over there, join in and party herself? The homeowner could also get in trouble with the neighbors.

Out of curiosity..what did Amex have to do with it?

Amex is a charge card, not a credit card. I'm assuming she ran up the bill and then dipped, so they couldn't take her purchases back to liquidate them and sue for the rest. Amex will absolutely repossess purchases and liquidate them to recoup losses if need be. If I had to guess, she maxed out the card, Amex went and got a judgement against her to satisfy the debt. The long and short of it - this woman doesn't pay her bills but has no problem taking from people.

She sounds like a shameless con woman who should be in prison. She can get her free accommodation there

Sounds good BUT IT IS ILLEGAL FOR HIM TO DO THAT. he would be in worse shit than he already is in

She would just trash the place, literally s*#@ un the toilets with no water, who knows, maybe finger paint. She is deranged.

You really shouldn't give legal advice which is illegal.

At this point she’s lost her tenant rights. Sorry not sorry she has to go!!!

@@joannmata4914 Emphasizing your point with exclamation marks doesn't make it magically become true. 😂

That is what he's been trying to do. She is getting around the eviction because the guest house doesn't not have an occupancy permit. She claims he was not allowed ever rent it so therefore he can't evict her. She's a squatter who knows the laws.

Yes, it's clear she always intended to do this based on past history and her requesting a 6 month stay. Also, she didn't want her time to reset, which is why she refused the hotel stay when he wanted to make repairs for her. Her request of $100k to re-home herself is also ridiculously high. It does not take an entire year's salary to move to a new apartment, even in California. There should be a loophole law for a landlord to prove that someone was actively trying to manipulate the system (maybe there is - I'm no lawyer). Also, California law apparently states that a tenant needs to approve entry to a unit unless there is an emergency. In my state, the landlord can always do so with 24 hours notice. this is his whole issue with getting the shower approved now, so I guess he needs a court order. Her time will come to an end in that unit. @@SunFlower-sf1go

This happens in every single state every day. The courts do not protect landlords and evictions take far too much time.

You can't do that. It's illegal.

@@eden_aumakua that's why Tony did it 😁😆

​@eden_aumakua I mean, he lives on the property too. He could certainly be an annoying neighbor, just not a literal loudspeaker.

The USA military Went into Panama and played loud music 24 seven to get Manuel Noriega the leader of Panama back in the 80s. It worked and they got him. He died in Florida prison.

Yup. She would be out in 4 hours if she was in my home like this.

Sad but true

Anywhere...

Avoid California

Not a chance in hell I'd release a bunch of cockroaches in my own property. You're on the right track I think but something a little less disgusting might be better.

And rats. And bedbugs. And stink bombs by any open windows, vents, etc.

i've heard of someone renting a bunch of tarantulas, and it apparently worked...Then they returned the spiders...

@@julian670 ...but what if one came up missing??😬

Her “reporting” sounds like table talk. She left out details. Like this: She’s been living there rent-free ever since, and she refused to budge unless Jovanovic paid her a relocation fee of $100,000," the Times reports. Hirschhorn’s attorney told the Times that "she was not required to pay rent because the city had never approved the unit for occupancy and that its shower was constructed without a permit."

You're not in california. Cops would force you to let squatter back in, and write a report that could be used as evidence in an unlawful eviction case and you could be charge for trespassing for entering your rental unit without prermission.

@@MrDavidParikh You could also potentially get sued for treble damages.

They gotta prove it. Cops see no lease, its breaking and entering, etc. If renters with a lease are overstaying thats a different squatter category.

@@uscjake868 Nope, all she has to do is show one piece of mail with her name, along with that address, and the cops are out of there. After telling you it's a civil issue that is.

@@WaitingOnAngels Then you can show them one mail with the address and say it is your property. You can't just claim occupancy because you showed an email. In any case she wouldn't be allowed in.

Except she's not paying

This is Orange County, CA. They didn't show the property but that's not abnormal out there. In my area, outside of Boston, a two bedroom in a brick building crappy complex is going for $2500+. Taxes, insurance, and every single utility cost has risen drastically.

Air bnb is not the same as living somewhere for rent.

LA County actually but yes expensive out here @@WaitingOnAngels

Brentwood is expensive. So charging $3000 is not a lot.

🤣

It’s illegal to do this. Heard of people attempting to do this before but the tenant has their own rights. Occupant always has more rights in cases like these. It’s crazy!

Go for it! Im guessing he would pay someone to do it!

@@sophieschoices9663 I should have elaborated. I was surmising what I would think to do but yes I bet he would! I don't understand how she can get away with this. 😄

Sounds like a good plan but they'd probably say that's an illegal eviction unfortunately. Such a shame people can eat away with this ish. I just don't understand it.

@@beanz6795 in some states it's not illegal. I would do it anyway. I had someone not pay rent I shut the electric off for 3 days. It got him moving

Get outta here with that bs. Contractors aren’t going to do thing’s wrong just because it isn’t going to be inspected

The fine used to be less than permit lol

If one is homeless . you don't stay ind a house

If someone is homeless they don't live in an air bnb 🙄
