Welcome to the Alliance of Property Owners
Updates on Government Overreach
We work with multiple Property owner & Real Estate Investor Associations (REIA's) to help stop the spread of unconstitutional fees, inspection and taxes. See some of these groups are listed below. If you are in the area, stop by to learn and support them. If your city is starting or growing their regulations and fees & you are willing to organize a group but don't know where to start contact us: [email protected]
Or download the letter we sent in Alliance Ohio to stop Fees & Unconstitutional Inspections.
The good news it, opinions are changing. People are seeing that you cannot make anyone rich by taking from people who produce & giving it to those who do not.
Stay up to date here & tells us what your are doing in your cities & where you need help.

Our Current Legal Battles to protect your Property Rights
Our members Eric & Lila Wohlwend are currently battling the City of North Canton and are represented by:
1851 Center for Constitutional Law!
Our 1st win in this case:
OHIO CITIES CANNOT GUT SEARCH WARRANT REQUIREMENT
CF Homes, LLC vs
DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES FOR CITY OF NORTH CANTON
North Canton’s crusade for warrants to enter homes based solely on lack of consent from homeowners is unconstitutional.
Previous Wins against the Federal Government!
Our own members Eric & Lila Wohlwend sued the CDC and won in Cleveland Federal court. When the CDC tried to Ban Evictions, the Wohlwend's, 1851 Center for Constitutional Law & Pacific Legal Foundation took them to court in Skyworks Ltd., et al. v. Centers for Disease Control to restore property owner's rights for all. —Thank you Skyworks, Pacific Legal Foundation & 1851 Center for Constitutional Law!
Kent landlords scored a legal victory against the city’s housing inspection program
Overruling the city’s most recent effort (there have been several) to dismiss the Constellation Ohio case, Judge Becky Doherty on July 12 ruled that Kent’s inspection policy and practice are “unconstitutional and unreasonable,” the fines used to enforce the code are “arbitrary, capricious, unreasonable, and unconstitutional,” and attaching unpaid fines to the landlords’ real estate taxes is “contrary to state law.”
Doherty also said Kent has been unjustly enriching itself by collecting fines and application fees for housing licenses that were not issued, and she ordered Kent to return an undetermined amount of the fines and fees, plus interest, to the plaintiffs.
Excerpt from The Portager by
Other Wins by 1851 Center
for Constitutional Law

VICTORY: OHIO CITIES’ “PRE-SALE” HOME INSPECTIONS AND FEES UNCONSTITUTIONAL Thompson v. Oakwood.

Landlord and Tenants Sue Illinois City Challenging Unconstitutional Home Inspections
Josefina Lozano, et al. v. City of Zion, et al.
The Institute for Justice is the national law firm for liberty and the nation’s leading advocate for property rights. IJ has successfully challenged a rental inspection program in Yuma, Arizona, and is currently challenging the rental inspection regimes of Pottstown, Pennsylvania, and Seattle, Washington. IJ has spent more than 25 years fighting for the rights of all Americans to be secure in their homes and businesses and safe from abusive government policies. IJ’s victories have saved homes and businesses, including: the home of an Atlantic City widow; 17 homes and businesses in Lakewood, Ohio; and a boxing gym for inner-city youth in National City, California.
Tenants Win Battle to Stop Government Abuse:
Yuma Rewrites Rental Inspection Ordinance; Lawsuit Challenging Yuma Warrantless Searches Dismissed
Arbitrary Rental Inspections Violate Search and Seizure Protections, Says Iowa Court
BRYAN C. SINGER, et al vs CITY OF ORANGE CITY AND KURT FREDERES
In the guise of protecting public health, many communities require tenants and landlords to submit to regular inspections of rental properties without probable cause. They do so despite objections raised by owners and residents. But now an Iowa court has joined others in ruling that such invasions of privacy and private property are unconstitutional.
