A series of wildfires broke out in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood and the surrounding Los Angeles area on Tuesday, January 7, causing mass destruction. Since it was announced, 11 people have died as the fires have burned more than 37,000 acres of land. In addition, more than 12,000 structures are said to have been destroyed and tens of thousands of residents forced to flee their homes under mandatory or voluntary evacuation orders.
As the wildfires continue to tear across the LA area, many of the victims are beginning to figure out their next steps. Jason, for his part, was grieving the subsequent real estate difficulties faced on Friday, January 10.
“I’ve been searching the MLS (directory) trying to help families displaced from the fires find rental properties,” he said in an Instagram Story video. “I notice dozens of examples of people trying to do things like this, where they can’t get $9,500 or even $9,000 and then yesterday increase the rent over 30 percent to $12,000.”
Although Jason noted that he was “all for free market capitalism,” he claimed that he was currently “blatantly taking advantage” of the natural disaster. Stause, 43, was dating her boss, whom she previously dated in 2021.
“This is disgusting,” Stause wrote via his Instagram Stories. “Other Realtors with a moral compass, let’s report to the board please.”
