The CDC banned evictions, but renters still face risks
The CDC has made it illegal for landlords across the U.S. to evict most tenants who can't afford to pay their rent through the end of the year.or offer any rental assistance, making it likely than many will rack up debt during the reprieve. In the meantime, landlords are allowed to tack on late fees. That means for many renters, the order will just delay their eviction by a few months.
"The United States is facing the most severe housing crisis in history," said Emily Benfer, visiting professor of law at Wake Forest University."Because the moratorium does not prohibit late fees or interest, tenant debt could quickly increase by hundreds to thousands of dollars," she said.
