‘I Could Say I Rented an Apartment From the President’: College Students Surprised to Discover Their Landlord Is…

I Could Say I Rented an Apartment From the President: College Students Surprised to Discover Their Landlord Is...Did you know that former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum owns and rents five State College apartments to Penn State students?

If that’s news to you, you’re not alone: very few of the apartment tenants know that the Republican presidential candidate is their landlord.

Students Lucy Barnhart and Shannon Kane didn’t even know who Santorum was – let alone the fact that he owns their apartment, writes Jessica Weber for the Collegian Online.

Another tenant, Emma Martin actually knew who Santorum was (it’s a start!) but also didn’t know that he was her landlord.

“I didn’t think that someone running for president would be the landlord of this small apartment in State College,” Martin told Weber.

Jamie Long, yet another tenant living in a Santorum-owned apartment, had no idea the former senator was his landlord.

“Wow,” he said when he found out a presidential candidate own his apartment, “That’s pretty interesting.”

Mallory Kern, a Penn State senior, has been renting out one of the apartments for the last two years.

“I knew he was our landlord, I just didn’t think much about it,” she said, adding that it would be “nuts” if he were elected president.

“Then I could say I rented an apartment from the president,” she said.

Property Manager Mark Bigatel said Santorum is “one of the better owners and ‘always’ updates the apartments.”

“He takes such good care, because he is a real proud Penn State alumni,” Bigatel said.

Each of the condominiums net Santorum between $15,000 and $50,000 annually and each is worth between $100,000 and $250,000, according to the Centre Daily Times.

      CommonDollars: I saw the entire video which you posted alleging hypocrisy regarding Rick Santorum’s stance on abortion for supporting a pro-choice Republican like Arlen Specter. The video clearly reveals that when the topic was broached and the camera shot opened up, Santorum was the only person on that stage whom did NOT applaud Specter’s pro-choice stance. Santorum recently admitted during a debate that he supported Specter primarily because he sat on the judiciary committee. he furthermore added that politics is a team sport. Ergo, just because he supported Specter‘s ’96 presidential bid, doesn’t necessarily mean that he also supports the wanton slaughtering of defenseless babies in the womb or the concocted progressive notion of the so-called “separation of church and state”. That’s a huge leap, pal. Moreover, IT IS LYING. You’ve been exposed. Epic fail.

      Santorum should answer the Spector question like this: “Yes, I supported Arlen Spector, a moderate. The Republican Party establishment told me he was more elecatble and that it was for the “good of the party”. I accepted that rationale and supported him. It was a mistake. I won’t make that mistake again, and I encourage all Americans to avoid making the mistake of supporting the moderate, establishment supported candidate because they say he’s electable.

    At Senator Arlen Specter’s official presidential campaign announcement in March 1996, then-Senator Rick Santorum showed his public support and encouragement of Specter by sitting directly next to him as Specter denounced the GOP’s war on abortion. It was at this event that Specter proclaimed his total opposition to social conservatism and declared he is in fact running to make the GOP pro-choice.

    Here are a few key takeaways from the 25 minute C-SPAN video, with Santorum seen nodding and applauding at Specter’s side:

    3’46 mark: “In 1996, I intend to win the other house — the White House — with ten commitments to America… including a woman’s right to choose…

Just because someone says a few things you disagree with doesn‘t mean you don’t listen to anything they say. Specter did say a lot of things that I would clap for, and so would you if you are honest. ” with Santorum seen nodding and applauding at Specter’s side” is just an outright lie and a really bad attempt at a smear.

      Excuse me! I am a landlord. It is part of my retirement savings. When Obama got elected I pulled all of our retirement out of my IRA and instead put it down on a rental house in a college town. Was the smartest thing I ever did. The IRA plummeted! Bought the rental property in a down market and the tenants make the mortgage payment. In 30 years when I am ready to retire it will be paid off. $1800 a month is better return than most retirement plans and certainly better than social security. Not all landlords are what you picture. Every truly successful person I know has income property in there portfolio. It is smart investing.

      @3MONKEY – You are right, you don’t get it. I’m not criticizing his business, or his right to do business. You need to look at what he has said over the last 10 days about college educations. It’s easy to find. He was doing it to fire up a conservative base that seems to think that all higher education is a waste of time and money. Many people in the press called out his hypocrisy, and wondered why he would even say such a thing. It was a major gaffe.

      It’s about putting the puzzle pieces together. One should be careful about what one criticizes in life. Santorum had a tendency to not think things through before he gets spouts off. He has done this with people who have criticized his record, only to shortly prove that the criticisim was justified and the charges true. Typical of a Senator. Not something we need for a president.

If someone else is handling the day-to-day operations and business through an outsourcing agreement, then it is just another item in his investment portfolio. If he runs it like a business, that is another matter all together, and he would have small business experience.

      You need to remember that he lives in Virginia, and has been on the campaign trail for a while. I doubt he is managing the properties. Probably just signing off on needed improvements, and other expenditures required to run the property.

In his campaign speeches, Santorum says what the crowd wants him to say in order to win the hearts and minds of conservatives and/or Tea Party types. Yet his record speaks to something else. Hence my initial post.

      If you read the comments on The Blaze article a week ago about what Santorum said about college, you get a pretty good idea of the crowd he is trying to mobilize and fire up. Most of these people do not place any value on higher education, and the Federal Student Loan system.

      To really lay it out clearly so that all understand… Santorum really does not line up with the values of the people who purport to support him. Neither does Newt Gingrich, yet the Tea Party loved him and put their support behind him because he is the anti-Romney.

A rental contract is a business transaction between a tenant and a landlord. Most real estate owners are not in that business to encourage people to be more independent and responsible. It is to make money.

      If I were in the same position, I would also be looking to make money off of my investment. The best way to do that is to add value to your property, be able to charge a higher rent, attract a higher calibre tenant, and take care of the property and the tenants in a way that they would want to stay. This is business. Not a social responsibility issue. From the comments in the article, Santorum seems to be doing this. No criticism from me on that.

      My brother and sister-law spoke often and fondly of their Land Lady, who managed a Real Estate office.

    “Students Lucy Barnhart and Shannon Kane didn’t even know who Santorum was ”

    That speaks volumes about the education that have gotten .. or even whether they EVER watch a news show .. even the MSM .. they should at least know who he is. SAD .. no doubt they attended public schools!

      Do they make their rent checks out to Rick? He probably has a housing management company that interacts with the tenants.

    “students didn’t even know who he was…”

    That’s the sentence that is troubling. By the way, Nugent has endorsed Romney. Disappointing.

      It is. To think that many college students vote & they vote without thinking.

      More often than not students will vote Democrat, because “they care”.

    The last sentence is misleading. “Each apartment makes Santorum between $15,000 and $50,000 annually and each is worth between $100,000 and $250,000, according to The Bellingham Herald.” Leads you to believe each unit is worth that amount. Are we talking about multi-tenant units that net the rental quotes as a whole, or are we talking about single units (as in condos) that net these numbers?

    which just proves how foolish you are – and you will even admit it, which is even more foolish.

    re : This guy is dangerous for our country
    Yeah, you’ve got a point there, if he’s elected President, The stock market might never make it back up, unemployment will probably go over 8%, Europe will burn, we’ll end up in a war in Africa, our allies won’t be able to trust us, our enemies will laugh at us, a terrorist organization like CAIR will probably have employees applying for and getting government jobs, including re-writing DHS info to take all references to islamic terrorism out, West Point won’t dare to train our troops that there IS SUCH A THING AS ISLAMIC TERRORISM, We’ll probably have to prepare for war with China and move troops to Asia, Iran will get the bomb while Israel gets her plans to bomb broadcast to the world, hackers will spread our governments secrets and shame all over the world, and the government will take over healthcare and deny grandma her surgeries. Oh wait, this is 2012 and we’re talking Santorum, not obama IN 2008, NEVER MIND, MY MISTAKE!!

    @Bryan

    Good post! Agree 100%! I am still amazed how liberals have really been coming out in full force and no longer hiding behind the veil & their mission to destroy this country. This is a fight between Good & Evil.
