So you wanted the government to put a moratorium on rent, mortgage, etc? Just how would they do that?
Tell the private sector that they have to put a moratorium on rent, mortgage, etc? good grief
I'm sure they could come up with a tax credit for suspending the payments, and a deduction when the payments are made up for. They would only have to cover 20% of the loses to induce the private sector to participate.
Luckily none of my tenants were out of work with all this. But if they were, and didn't pay rent, I would be sunk.
I still have utilities to pay, still have house insurance to pay, still have water and sewer to pay, still have property tax to pay, still have to make mortgage payments, still have to do repairs to these units. And what would happen if a major expense come up like a roof or had to replace a sewer line?
Tax credit would do me no good, in fact it would boil down to virtually nothing.
