There are tenants out there that know California law better than you do, believe me.[/quote]I agree. There are what some people call “professional renters” who know the law and every trick in the book.[/quote]
And I will avoid those people like there’s no tomorrow. I’m not a desperate landlord that has a cashflow issue. I’d rather have a place vacant for an extra month, than to deal with a PITA tenant that has every trick in the book up……
I’ve been in SoCal long enough to know what people here are capable of doing…Especially in L.A. I recall awhile ago, the LA Times described about how some slimy lawyers went around trying to stir up tenants by not moving and involving the eviction due process for the sake of it…Landlords had to cough up money just to get the tenant to leave them in peace.
That’s one of the reasons why I won’t buy rental properties in certain ghettoish areas, even it it cashflows well. It becomes a liability issue for me.
