[@charlesphilhower1452]

He impresses me as being entitled and a professional victim. He was more concerned about having cable and having gas for a car he can’t afford, when he is not paying rent. His refusal to pay late fees and the blaming the landlord for charging for court fees when he had no reasonable plan to pay the rent and had no intention of doing anything about it until he was forced to by the court. I don’t blame the landlord for pushing this action, especially with his entiled attitude and the fact that he still has cable and is driving in a car that could be sold to pay the rent.

As a tenant rent is essential to be paid. Make payment arrangements BEFORE you get into difficulty. I can see both sides. The tenant is not being reasonable to be honest. You can't expect to stay for free and then complain when the Landlord gets upset about wanting their money. You go without cable TV and use pre-pay phone service. It can be done.

[@ting2006jd]

This is positional mediation.

[@GoldProfessor]

Okay, as a former landlord, you have to find a way to make the best of the situation. He is an older man, no job, behind on rent, but has been in the apartment for the past 4-5 years. Perhaps, have him work it off being that she runs a business. Now, if he decided not to work it off, then she would have no other course of action but to evict him. Eviction is part of being a landlord. 🤷🏿‍♂️.

Homelessness creates debts for city and States, and when the the local City Police Commissioners don't agree to let the United States people to work because they don't like them or not able to control those United States citizens lives, homeless will increase and continue. The the States City police Commissioners are a problem for the United States government, because the landlords are right to want their rent on time or in a few days.

[@oliva_jung]

Hello folks, I'm currently undergoing training for mediation, and I would like to say that this was a very helpful resource to me, as I picked up a few things after watching this mediation. However, I would like to respectfully give a few points as to what I realized while watching this mediation, and what I would do or change given my style of mediation. Hopefully this could give you a different perspective on the mediation process. As most of us know, this was a mock mediation, and only serves to give people a glimpse of what a tenant-landlord situation would look like. As far as I know, a normal mediation would rarely take this little time, and could potentially be more volatile emotion-wise. Throughout the mediation, I enjoyed watching the mediator take a more passive but firm approach when talking to the landlord and tenant. But is it me, or was caucus called way too early?? I could see calling caucus early as an effective strategy to gain knowledge of the situation early without interference of the other party, but I wasn't entirely sure if it was necessary. It almost seemed as if both parties weren't able to fully explain their stories. Another thing I noticed was that the mediator rarely used reframing to clarify what was being said by both sides, but I suppose the matter was extremely clear to both the tenant and the landlord. These participants are most likely much much MUCH more experienced that I am, but one thing I noticed was that the mediator seemed to become less and less impartial as the video went on. You can notice the mediator remind the tenant frequently about potential repercussions and the chance of being evicted if he did not come to an agreement. And finally, when terms of the agreement were discussed, the mediator once again reminded the tenant of the consequences. All in all, they did a much better job than I would have ever dreamed of doing, but thankfully I am going to another training session to roleplay these exact kinds of situations! It's amazing how such an old video can still serve to be an amazing tool for mediators in training just like me.

[@autumnecho4742]

I just wanted to thank you for your review. I am taking an online conflict resolution class and have a mediation assignment on this video. Your review helped me to look back and really watch what happened in the video which helped me to answer some of the questions on the assignment. So thank you for your input!

[@oliva_jung]

@@autumnecho4742 No prob! I'm glad to hear that you're currently learning about conflict resolution. It's actually pretty crazy that I'm re-visiting this video from a whole year ago, and it reminds me of when I first wanted to learn about mediation. However, life kinda changed for me, and I decided to study psychology at my university. Mediation/conflict resolution was definitely my second career choice, but I'm glad that I'll be able to help people in a similar capacity as a psychologist. Looking back in hindsight, I can say that mediation was one of the most enjoyable skills to pursue. As for you, keep at it! It'll be totally worth it :)

Landlords are always concerned about their investment especially retired landlords who depend on their investment income to survive. You see, it's all about everyone doing their honest part and doing what's right to each other.

I like this video, I do have some suggestions. Sit both parties on the same side of the table. Have the parties find their own solutions, and have them feel like they came to the solution theirselves. Always caucus with the tenant first. Advocate for both parties. Do not put someone in the “hot seat”. Listen.

[@pitbull1026]

I see a lot of support for the landlord. Imagine being the tenant and losing your job. The first thing that goes into your mind is how your going to pay your rent. Your already hurting losing that job and now your going to be homeless? Coming back from losing the job is gonna be difficult. You feel too far gone when your homeless on top. This is a situation where I'm saying that this tenant never had problems before and always been responsible.

[@sierrapeaks]

Imagine having someone steal thousands of dollars from you every single month and expecting you to be cool with it because they don't have a job. How about when I lose my job I hit you up for a thousand each month?

[@pitbull1026]

@@sierrapeaks Well, If one has always been a good tenant, always paid your rent on time, kept the place clean, and quiet, most of the time it's worth keeping that tenant. You know this tenant and your more likely to get all your money back as soon as they get back on their feet. Setting aside emergency money is always necessary and responsible. If the tenant is a good person they are aware of their limits. If they don't see the light at the end of the tunnel within reason, they'll vacate. You don't need to steal money from me, If have it to give...I will. But if your that type of person that always has their hand out...

[@sierrapeaks]

@@pitbull1026 in California, where I am, you don't want that tenant. We're limited to rent increases at 5% plus inflation or 10% which ever is less, why would I keep the tenant who's (Not) paying rent capped at $1700 a month when I can get rid of him and rent it out to somebody who can and will pay $2800-$3,000 a month. In my mind he's already stealing the difference between the $1700 month rental rate and market rate of $3000 each and every month, now he's stealing the rest of it too.

She's merely pointing out he's broken the rental contract terms by not paying rent, so legally, his Landlord can evict him. The mediator has no power to evict him that is the Landlords decision: which she can make, legally, because he's broken the terns if his rental contract by not paying . The mediator is doing her Court appointed role, pointing out where the situation is at legally & trying to find a solution for both of them .
