HALFMOON – Local landlord Joseph Tronco had a date for an eviction hearing set for March 2020.
A tenant in his four-bedroom house had stopped paying rent, Tronco said at Halfmoon Town Hall Wednesday during an event that called attention to the plight of struggling landlords during the pandemic.
But then the pandemic and eviction moratorium hit. The tenant told the court she had been affected financially by the pandemic.
Fast-forward more than a year and Tronco said he’s now owed 17 months’ rent, which he said he had lowered from $2,350 to $1,950 a month because of his tenant’s financial hardships.
