Right, but we're not talking about banks. We're talking about a startup company enacting enforcement with untrained workers against the will of a person having the law enforced on them.

We've watched other companies in the startup space with lives on the line cut corners---What are the odds that this is going to go well?



There is no evidence that the startup is doing anything differently than landlords have been doing legally for years.

After you go through the eviction process, you schedule someone from the sheriff’s office to monitor the process and you get some day laborers if you don’t know anyone personally.

The other startups are in danger of civil penalties and fines. If you go into your own rental property and evict someone illegally, you personally can be charged with trespassing, assault, criminal threats, etc.
