[quote=Anonymous]Landlords have little ability to control this situation: (1) it is illegal to refuse to accept voucher tenants and there are plenty of non-profit legal advocates more than happy to try to catch and sue landlords who try to do so. (2) it is extremely difficult in DC to evict a tenant on behavioral issues---it can take years. It is easier (marginally) to evict for non-payment of rent, but voucher tenants are getting their rents paid. Part of the problem is the extremely one-sided tenant friendliness of DC landlord/tenant laws. Financially secure educated tenants on Connecticut Avenue---many of them more than happy to vote for progressives like Frumin---are now seeing firsthand the problems such one-sided laws create.
