Can you describe the eviction process in New York City? I can.

Edit: From the post you responded to, but forgot to quote:

"The person on the lease should pay, but can't, so the only recourse is to not get paid or eviction - a multi-year process in NYC."

Edit: I love when asshats want to get the last word so they comment then block me.

You're not the only one who has lived in this city for 20+ years. But my name is right there. Where is yours?

No. Owners got tired of getting "half rent" when roommate-not-on-the-lease stopped paying.

There is no recourse on that. The person on the lease should pay, but can't, so the only recourse is to not get paid or eviction - a multi-year process in NYC.

Had multiple landlords who kept my rent low, because I paid on time and told them if I ever couldn't.

I would like to not get roasted on this, but my experience in this sub tells me I am about to. Full disclosure - I am a real estate agent, and really like helping people find homes. I've brushed up against June Homes a few times, and haven't had any issues yet.

I don't get what June Homes promised that they didn't deliver?

They aren't a company designed for long term housing. They are a company designed to solve some niche problems. Landlords rarely offer sub-1 year leases. And they frequently want 35xrent income or 80xrent guarantors.

What exactly are you supposed to do as a foreign exchange student? Military? Travelling nurse? Corporate traveler when you need to have a place to live in NYC sight-unseen now? You're gonna pay more, and have more hassle in an already expensive and hassle-rich environment.

The article just reads like, "Help! I signed a contract I didn't read and now people expect me to honor what I agreed to!"

I don't think anyone going to June Homes website is walking away thinking this is the best way to have permanent housing in NYC, but all the complaints just seem like them doing business as normal.
