A clear pattern in these responses is unengaged landlords seeing eviction as a structural problem and fully engaged landlords seeing individual choices as the issue.
Kiaspo@kiaspo.com · last mo.From unengaged landlord(1): “There's so many structural things that I think go into this. Are people being paid living wages? No, they're really not. How do we beat back capitalism so that it's fair and that people are making enough money to make ends meet.” #RespondentQuotes
Another striking finding was the difference in how landlords thought about preventing future evictions.
Kiaspo@kiaspo.com · last mo.A few years back, we did an eviction study centered on landlord activities and their perspectives. We created the environment necessary for landlords to speak freely. What returned to us were nuanced insights that defy easy-made narratives.
Uncovering dynamics that don't readily spring to mind is where the value of 'research done right' unfolds. Regardless of what the researcher brings with them to the interview, within the interview, the respondent is the expert and should be treated as such. The insights are the reward.
Kiaspo@kiaspo.com · last mo.From a fully engaged landlord: “I think that poor money management is very significant. Very. I think that we look over that more than anything. And I think that the ability to say 'no' to other things that take your money... that's missing out of the big pot of decision-making.” #RespondentQuotes

Kiaspo@kiaspo.com · last mo.One thing that became clear through this study is the connectedness between one's personal commitment to 'landlording' and how they spoke about the social reality of eviction. When asked "who gets evicted?" there was a dramatic difference between fully engaged and unengaged landlords.

“…But what ended up happening is I found out that I could not be, except for during the pandemic, basically, the landlord that I wanted to be and make cash flow; that I either needed to treat it like a charity or be the landlord I didn't want to be." 1/2 #RespondentQuotes

In research, subtle things matter. How you word a question, how you communicate about a research initiative beforehand, and the spaces you provide—matter.
There is a lot working against organizations whose speed and agility are tied to their ability to rally individuals towards a common cause. A key question, in this respect, is how to honor and respect a diverse array of social identities without opening the door to conflict? kiaspo.com/contact

The organizations that view their diversity as a strength will win the future. This means keeping your organization free of conventional corporate hierarchies and upholding practices that affirm the person behind the role and the coherence between unity-in-diversity and mission advancement.
