Required Reading for Slumlord Research

http://www.orgnet.com/slumlords.html

"The common wisdom is that only big business and government use social network analysis. Yet, there are many individuals and groups that are learning the craft, and solving local problems. Although social network analysis can notbe learned by reading a book, it does not require a PhD either. Any intelligent person, under the right guidance, and with the proper tools, can apply the methodology to an appropriate problem and gain enormous insight into what was previously hidden."




"North Minneapolis has seen no shortage of LLC's and odd connections among family members and associates related to slumlord ownership and outright fraud.  Whether it's been Koenig's multiple LLC incarnations, Mahmood Khan and his relatives transferring property among themselves, Moghul owning property through a trust account, or the numerous incarnations of Danna D, or even small-time slumlords like Phil Kliendl using a different LLC for each property, we're no stranger to convoluted ownership schemes."

  • Do landlords *actually* undergo inspections from the City? I thought I read the fire inspection list is something like 7 years behind (a point brought up after the tragic bar/apartment fire on Lake Street that killed several people a year or two ago). I think the idea is homeowners with insurance already undergo an inspection that is far more rigorous than any non-insured rental property. If homeowners don't keep up their yard/house, I think that is an issue that, while important, needs to be kept separate from this issue. Partly to keep a focused target, partly to prevent becoming too heavy-handed too quickly.
    Please, anyone correct me if I'm wrong on any of the above.

    1. I don't think anyone is arguing that one life is more important that the other. One of the reasons slum properties exist is because their owners have ZERO incentive or regulation forcing the upkeep of the properties. Requiring property insurance as part of the rental license with the city will help start the reversal of the neglect that affects everyone in the neighborhood, home owner and renter alike.

      Property insurance should be a condition of rental licenses. All owners who have a mortgage are required to have insurance. 

      Nothing can stop an "investor" from running out on an investment. 

      However, all business entities do need to have a specific individual listed as a registered agent with the Minnesota Secretary of State. By linking data with the State, the City could limit these individuals from obtaining additional rental licenses regardless of the assumed business name. A little due diligence by the City would save millions of dollars worth of wasted revenue and help stabilize our neighborhoods.
