There is no eviction crisis in the United States. But if you read headlines and listen to elected officials, you’d think millions of people have been and are going to be unjustly evicted.

“Roger armed us with what we needed most: facts and a better story,” says Vickie Perry, Executive Director of Central Indiana Real Estate Investors Association. 

There is no “eviction crisis.”
