		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so let me get this straight. You believe that just by paying rent that makes you a good tenant and you &quot;own&quot; the property you are renting? Might I remind you there are many other factors that makes a good tenant besides simply paying the rent on time (this includes your behavior to your landlord and neighbours). I really do not believe that you are a good tenant based on your responses and actions so far.
So even if hypothetically the landlord wishes to sell the property, might I remind you that you are merely a tenant renting, not the owner or landlord/s. You are borrowing space on their property, you do not own the property in any way whatsoever.

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, that&#039;s intense. Talk about a lack of respect. It&#039;s amazing how someone thinks they are in the right just because they manage to pay their (presumably) under market rent on time. That&#039;s not being a good tenant, that&#039;s just prolonging one&#039;s own condition. This seems to be completely the instigation of a borderline psychopath who feels entitled to &quot;harvest the fruits of the work of another&quot;. I would guess the disabled guise is just an effort to leech off of the system, or else how do you explain the (supposed) 15 years of yard cleanup and gardening. If you are healthy enough to garden I would think you are not disabled.

How much social services and tax money is she stealing? How much is this person costing our society? There is certainly glee and bragging about all of the money that she is taking away from the landlords. All of the aggravation, all of the legal fees, all of the costs and losses. Makes her really happy and accomplished.

I am not a rich man, landlord or investor. I work for my living and people like that make me sad. This is pure and insidious evil. Users and abusers with no decency to respect the efforts of others looking what can be extorted and stolen.

What a shame.

It&#039;s just too bad that at the end of it all, some other unsuspecting landlord will be used and abused by her.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Actually, I found this part of the Ellis Act:

&quot;While there are restrictions on ever re-renting the units, there are no such restrictions on converting them to ownership units (e.g., tenancies in common or condos).&quot;  So I&#039;m not sure why the original owner thinks they can no longer convert to condos.  If anything that&#039;s the REASON most Ellis Act actions occur.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If the Piotr is just an average guy who want to live in the place then where exactly is he going to live for six months that he claims he offer to be out of the building? Does he own another apartment in the city? If the tenant is harassing you, why haven&#039;t you gotten her evicted for that behavior? There are so many holes in this story. Sounds like guy bought into a TIC and was assured that it would be easy to pay off the rental tenant and start making market rate rent and then the tenant actually knew her rights. Whether she is crazy or not doesn&#039;t matter so long as she pays her rent and follows the terms of her lease.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the only way that they can evict you.  Just because you pay your rent on time doesn&#039;t mean you are entitled to stay there forever.  There&#039;s a reason it&#039;s called &quot;month to month&quot; lease.  Only in San Francisco does that mean &quot;forever&quot; for the tenant if they so choose.

So by your logic, if someone gives you a car, it doesn&#039;t matter if it gets stolen.  I mean, you got the car for free, so there&#039;s no loss for you, right?

You certainly act the bad tenant, at least here.  This horse is starting to turn to glue, and most everyone that reads this seems to get it.

I&#039;ll tell you what, when the court appearances have been sorted out, come back to this site, and post the results (and transcripts).  Then, when you are looking for somewhere to live, and have managed to alienate your landlords and received nothing in return (including your deposit, which I&#039;m guessing they&#039;ll keep to cover court costs), tell us all how you feel vindicated.

That&#039;s how it&#039;s going to end.  No, I&#039;m not psychic, and no, I&#039;m not psycho.  The problem here is that judges function on logic, rules, and laws... something that&#039;s clearly missing from your side of things.]]></description>

For almost a year the windows have been one of my few ways to speak about this awful injustice which is going on all over the city.
