RENT Magazine Q4'25

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO GET STARTED

To file a claim, you’ll need to provide documentation showing your losses. This includes:

Lease agreements in place during the eviction moratorium (Sept. 2020 – Oct. 2021)

Documentation showing missed or partial rent payments

Copies of CDC Eviction Declarations received from tenants

Financial documents showing your losses

WHY THIS MATTERS

The federal government made a choice to impose the costs of a public health emergency on private landlords, many of whom were already struggling. While tenants got protection from the US government, landlords were expected to bear the burden with no help and no compensation. Filing a takings claim is about more than just money. It’s about fairness. It’s about holding the government accountable for using your private property for public benefit without paying for it.

THERE’S STILL TIME, BUT NOT MUCH

The attorneys at mctlaw have spent decades litigating in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. We are one of the few law firms in the country with deep experience in this area, and we are actively helping landlords prepare and file claims related to the eviction moratorium before time runs out.
