If you’ve been renting, especially a single-family house vice an apartment, you’ve been on pins and needles the entire time, not knowing if it would be sold out from under you if the owner decides to cash in on good times, vice continues to deal with tenants. Almost every aspect has been fraught with anxiety for all concerned.
A good portion of this is attributable to measures taken (with questionable authority) by the Centers for Disease Control. In an unprecedented order on 1 September 2020, the CDC brought an immediate — and "temporary" — halt in residential evictions to "prevent the further spread of COVID-19." Congress and then the Biden administration extended that order through various incarnations for another year, claiming a surge in Delta variant infections justified it.
