  1. The "tenant" is clearly a man-child from a very protected demographic. That, "getting on his knees and begging," is a very old ploy – which often works for the scammer. I wish Mr. Pantano well – he certainly looks marvelous, and I hope he will soon rid himself of this parasite.

  2. Bill, at this point call some friends in Little Italy!

  3. The landlord should send some bad people to hurt the bad tenant lol

  4. Not paying rent is poor people supremacy!

  5. Wow that’s a shame for this 96 yr old man ❤️🇨🇦❤️

  6. This is BS…its his property, and what should be his income. The rest of us have to pay, in fact more rent now, not to mention ppl that have to move or be homeless because of skyrocketing rent.

  7. Lol Fox cuts it off when it starts getting interesting 😂😂😂

  8. Name them on Facebook and sod their human rights. Save others getting freeloaders

  9. My tenant owes a year back. Unfortunately they are family…

  10. Bill looks very well for 96

  11. What's that movie with Michael Keaton?

  12. Have someone move into the apartment with him who has a pitbull and blast loud music, and leave dirty dishes and huge messes. Force him out…

  13. So many people didn’t pay rent because of Let’s Go Brandon. Guess what, someone is paying for it, the owner. We need to be able to remove people who don’t pay. You don’t let people eat then walk out on the bill. They pay or get arrested. It’s total nonsense has to go through this.

  14. If this old dude is a Democrat then so be it.

  15. Never buy a rental property in New York, California or Chicago. You will be screwed royally by the Democrat politicians who buy votes through rent control and eviction moratoriums.

  16. Yeah, but what slum is this gangster pimping?

  17. Sounds like a great investment strategy but in todays world….I don’t believe I’d do rental properties. But hey, if you can find great renters and do a background check ….good for you.

  18. Something wrong with the rules, well don’t pay your taxes to the government until they straighten out this law, this is bs

  19. Hey Fox..
    How about you help this elderly gentleman and look into this issue.
    Your a news station so how about doing something that doesn't make your investor's money.
    This poor man has been neglected for two long from this disgusting tenant..
    Help him get justice.

  20. I would have shut off all hydro, water.

  21. It is terrible that these people get by without paying rent! The squatters know how to use the system!

  22. I would pay someone to physically remove this person, change the outside lock and apartment lock

  23. He should play deafening music at their door

  24. Hey, look at that? Finally on the receiving end of an unfair rent related issue.

    9/10 times, landlords come out on top. Do you realize that the reason why people are having to deal with high cost of rent is because of people like you.

    Why is it that they let people buy something that should be a given right to all human beings and profit off of them?

    I bet you that prior to covid, landlords sat back and collected money on their properties, never having to work again.

    All the while, your tenant has to go slave away at some job they don't like just to keep a roof over their head.

    They live there because they need a place to stay.

    You just collect money and contribute nothing to society

  25. This Guy is sooo BLESS 96 looking like that?…..I don’t think lawyer is doing what he needs to do. ( sense market is good maybe selling be the answer ) you need to enjoy your hard work.
