Jeremy Mykaels, who is featured in our story this week on Ellis Act evictions, is fighting back with his reseach and web-developer skills: He’s put together a site, ellishurtsseniors.org, that details not only his story and the overall plight of tenants but lists every Ellis Act eviction involving seniors or disabled people, the address, the name and contact info. for the landlord — and a call for potential TIC buyers to avoid those properties.

I hope this gets circulately widely — and that people buying property consider the human costs of eviction.
