The Ellis Act, whatit is and what to watch out for....

by D Boyer
The Ellis Act is being abused by Real-estate speculators....
Copy the code below to embed this movie into a web page:
...and the victims are the disabled, the terminally ill, pregnant women, and senior citizens.
A few of the Real-Estate speculators included West Coast properties, and Zachs Law firm.
Legislation is needed to stop this abuse, BUT some politicians like State Senator Leland Yee
do not take positions, so the abuse continues....

Avoiding 2-6 unit buildings, and not renting from buildings that are up for sale, are some of the precautions that renters can take to avoid becoming victims of the Ellis Act.





Please feel free to add to the list of Real-Estate speculators that abuse the Ellis Act.
