Who looks out for landlords?

In the April 25 story “Las Vegas’ affordable housing shortage at crisis level, advocates say,” LaLo Montoya, of Make the Road Nevada, is quoted saying: “It’s really inhumane, the level of liberties that our landlords have to kick out a family when they miss paying the rent.”

I have been a caring landlord in three states since 1980. Usually, when I gave a tenant more time to pay rent, they just lived in my house for free and could never come up with the rent. They had gotten bottle service at a club for their birthday, bought a fancy truck or had a great Christmas with the rent money.

Is Montoya working with lenders to not charge landlords late fees if our tenants don’t pay on time? If a law passes making it impossible to evict tenants who don’t pay rent on time, I am selling all of my rent houses. This is not the solution to a very real problem in Nevada.
