Defund Landlords

Well, #NotAllLandlords but seriously there's a lot of this shit going around. A property manager stole a bunch of rent payments. Whilst the landlords who appointed him admit it ain't the fault of the renters, they're demanding the renters pay them again.

Did I mention this is low-income housing? Where these folk likely don't have access to a lawyer who could easily point out this is the landlords' fault for not having insurance (or, if they DO, that they'll get their money back that way)?

Now, their former property manager, Casey Oiler, is under investigation. Oiler is accused of taking those payments, and it isn’t just in Manchester. WSMV 4 Investigates has confirmed that Oiler has also been charged in Warren County, and is under investigation for stealing rent payments in Decherd.

The Jackson, Tennessee-based company recently admitted in a letter to tenants that it isn’t their fault their rent payments are stolen. However, the company still wants residents to pay up again.

This is low-income rural housing, subsidized by the USDA.

Making Wilear angrier was the letter that Volunteer Management sent to tenants last month. In it, the company told renters that they have until the end of the year to repay what the company admits was stolen.

A portion of the letter reads, “I understand this is difficult times, and this was not your fault, but this is the way Corporate and our lawyers want to handle this.”

“This is a low-income housing,” Wilear said. “I work at Walmart, you know? I don’t make a ton of money.”
