This is a bizarre concept that our wise legislators came up with while trying to make their random depreciation periods appear less random.

Trash cans are, well… trash.The judge is aggressive legislation.

Unfortunately, the City of Chicago hasn't been updating their legislation website, but I was on a call this morning with an Alderman that stated several versions of eviction legislation are floating around City Hall.

It is a shame people post stuff like this and people just believe it without reading the actual proposed legislation. 

@Gary Swank The city decided to create a legislation to handle it themselves and it is killing landlords and property managers. 

Legislation around short-term rentals also seems to be a hot topic on Dauphin Island, so there is some risk to the STR market there in general.

They have been pretty successful in pushing back on some of the harmful legislation that has been proposed lately. 

I heard a rumor today (from two different sources), that legislation is going into effect January 1st that will end short sale flips all together.I haven't been able to verify this yet, though, so I have no idea if there is any truth to it.

Any dog will destroy any property if the owner is a bad pet owner.Maryland just got rid of breed specific legislation, so it's up to your insurance company and your ability to judge owners and their dogs.

Last year a rent control bill was drafted, at the state level, and this is a long legislative session year so its likely to pass considering the number of renters far outweighs the number of investors.
