What are your thoughts? Are you renting and impacted by COVID? Are you an investor, and the same question?
The statewide eviction moratorium is days away from ending, but not in the city of Fresno where a local moratorium will remain in effect until the city’s declaration of emergency is lifted — likely months away.
This means that evictions for nonpayment of rent for tenants who have been financially impacted by COVID-19 will still be prohibited in Fresno past Sept. 30.
According to Mayor Jerry Dyer, the decision of when to lift the local moratorium and declaration of emergency is still up in the air and will be based on local coronavirus data. It will likely not be lifted this calendar year, after Fresno saw a surge in the COVID-19 delta variant, Dyer said.
