I watched this with interest since the County of Los Angeles may very well enact similar ordinances when their moratorium expires in March 31. Notice how much the City of Los Angeles is trending towards a situation where a no-fault eviction has a punitive financial cost for the property owner. Once they move in, it's very expensive to move 'em out. Looks like the only breath of fresh air is that if you rent out your single family residence home or condo for a few years because you move to another temporary location, you can move back in, exercise a no fault eviction, and only be liable for one months rent for relocation. Looks like this is last similarity with times past. Summary: It looks like rental properties are very poor investments for small landlords. All of these laws are supposedly to combat homelessness, when in fact they drive investors out of the rental market.
Agreed, Howell, this will lead to a reduction in future rental housing supply in LA. Especially when a small landlord can buy in nearby counties without these regulations.
I’m going to live in the family home downtown LA 3k sqft 5 bed 3 bd 2 bath by myself because of how difficult they’ve made being a landlord good bye 10 people who have financially exploited my 80 year old uncle who treated you like you family….zero and I mean zero absolutely zero sympathy hope they end up on the street like my uncle had to because he couldn’t cover his own bills…

Wow! Christian, you are the man, and I can’t thank you enough for these updates w/in hours. I’m think LA county will adopt LA city laws….& yet still have so many questions.

I realize that in the beginning of the pandemic people lost their jobs along with the need to social distance but the way this is evolving is like it doesn't even relate to the original problem anymore. So glad I don't own property in L.A. city or county.
What is everywhere whether you pay your rent on time, been there number of years the landlord will evicted claiming remodeling up grades and then jack the price up or they raise the rent so high knowing tenants can't afford that so they have to move. Greed in all areas for all people will be the down fall for soooo many whether you are a landlord or a tenant. Karma is energy whether it's good or bad and it will come to everyone no matter who you are. A lot of people will not make it past the next three years.
Great explanations on so many landlord-tenant ordinances in LA. Thank you. I am an owner of a single-family dwelling (exempted from RSO) in city of Los Angeles but under Just Cause Ordinance (built before 1978). I do not owe any other rental properties in LA nor have another SFD in a separate lot. I Rented this my single family residence for 3 yrs to a couple but they now want a relocation fee. Do I fall under JCO and require to pay one month relocation fee?
This is my exact situation. When I look up the property on zimas I'm not under RSO. Therefore I believe in our situation it's just 1 months rent but if you get a concrete answer please let me know and I'll do the same
Thanks, Christian. Remember folks this is called "kicking the can down the road"…BIG GOV. is stalling to get you set up to the WEF Smart City-UBI plan. Extensions till infinity!
I have to laugh, as the only reason you CA/LA landlords are putting up with these unconstitutional moratoriums and edicts is because CA has become part of Communist China, no longer a US state!
@@wandapastorino : It's pretty easy to be "qualified." If the tenant has children, is elderly or disabled, or has lived there more than 2 years in most locations.
I did a no fault back in January of 2021. I gave the tenant a 60 day notice. One free month of rent and a relocation fee equal to one month. I guess I was lucky.
Interesting thought experiment...if the real estate no longer exists, then I would think that the tenancy is void and no relocation assistance would be due, but who knows what the City Council and Board of Supervisors will say.
Thank you for your informational videos! I see the rental assistance is listed for no fault evictions like owner move in and ellis act/remodeling...but do you know how much time the tenants receive to leave? I believe it used to be 1 year for qualified tenants and 4 months for normal tenants? Thanks!
Depends where it is. Ellis Act terminations do have different regulations and those may change, as well. Owner move in for LA City should be 30, 60 or 90 day notice.
Can you possibly help clarify something? I'm in an owner occupied 1923 RSO LA CIty duplex. Because I live in one side and always have, is the rental side except from AB1482? I keep hearing owner occupied is, but my understanding is that it's just the owner occupied side that is exempt, which seems absurd, because of course it is, I'm not going to evict myself. So the only think it really means is I don't pay the fee for my unit, just the rental. Thank you.
If the tenancy started after you moved in, then yes, the duplex should be exempt from AB 1482...as long as you gave the exemption language. And yes, this means the other unit you don't live in is exempt from AB 1482. But in your case RSO is more strict and you would most likely not be exempt from that.
San Diego doesn't have a similar ordinance in place, but the statewide Tenant Protection Act might require relocation assistance for you. Is it a house or condo or a bigger building?
I am an attorney helping out a friend who is facing a no-fault just cause eviction. I don't do this area of the law and find it confusing so any help is appreciated. I can't remember which statute/ordinance/code provided for 90-day notice for no-fault eviction and one year for a qualified tenant. I can't find it now and I don't know if it applies or not. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
One year notice would be for a senior citizen being evicting under the Ellis Act in LA City. 90 day notice is required for Section 8 tenants. Feel free to reach out to discuss 👉 www.wireassociates.com/contact/
Question: My father owns an owner occupied duplex. We are looking at completing a no fault 60 day eviction. The tenant is already on a month to month. Is he subject to relocation assistance? Or the does rule below allow him to be exempt from it? Thank you for your time (6) When the residential real property is a single-family dwelling and the owner is a natural person, including natural persons who hold properties in a trust or registered legal entity controlled by that natural person, who owns no more than four dwelling units and a single-family home on a separate lot in the City of Los Angeles: one month’s rent that was in effect when the landlord served the written notice to terminate the tenancy, as either a monetary payment or credit. Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 151.30(E) shall not apply.
@@WIREassociates He wanted to put back on the rental market. One last question, with the same scenario is there a cap of how much we raise the rent by with a proper notice ?
@@andygutierrez4018 You'll have to see if it's subject to RSO. If not, then it would be subject to AB 1482, which caps the rent increase at 5% plus CPI, but no more than 10%...which is what it is right now.
Thanks for the update! getting mixed messages from the cities website, looks like it was updated but still says evictions for the city can start on February 1st . is the city evictions extension another two months like the county?
LA City Eviction Moratorium is over, it now defaults to the LA County Eviction Moratorium until March 31, 2023. In other words, if a landlord in LA City tries to evict for nonpayment of rent due to COVID, the tenant could use the LA County Eviction Moratorium as an affirmative defense through 3/31/23 because LA City sits in LA County. Discuss with an attorney.
TBH, I suggest sending the landlord a link to this site and tell him to discuss with a local eviction attorney because the attorney will straighten the landlord out 👉 dcba.lacounty.gov/noevictions/
I purchased the property I rented for 10 years.There are 2 houses in the lot the rear house is RSO. I want my son to live in the rear house. The tenant says I have to pay them I don’t have any contract with them. They pay 900.00 for a 2 bedroom house with a garage and 2 parking spaces and back yard. Please help .
I’ve lived in my apt for more than 2 years im paying my rent but i do have a question about.. my lease i think it was for 1 year, can i be evicted now? Or they have to pay relocation fees
Hello, I am a question. Last year a bought my first House. I got a duplex. My agent didn't tell me about moratorium eviction. He just said as soon as I got the house, I would just send a 60 days eviction letter and I could live in the House. I didn't so, but unfortunately I face with the law. I would do the eviction. The big problem is that my monthly mortgage payment is $4400 and the tenant are Just paying $800 for each house. It's been so hard for me to keep paying my rent and the mortgage. My question is if now I could evict them? They are only two women, the mother in the back house and the daughter in the front house. As I said, this is my only one property. How much would I have to pay for relocation assistance?
Make sure you discuss this scenario with an attorney...that was potentially negligence by your agent. Is this in LA City? Then, you should be able to pay one month's rent for relocation assistance and follow the other steps for owner move in...you probably have to wait until the LA County Eviction Moratorium is over, discuss with an attorney.
Hey christian. I am currently being evicted do to owner moving into my unit. So I fall under no fault just cause. I live in woodland hills in a property that has the main house which the owners live in and two ADU which one is occupied by myself. Does my property fall under a single family dwelling or under the 3 year and under relocation?
That's an interesting one! You could fall under RSO because of the unit mix (especially if the ADUs are not permitted)...reach out to LAHD and they will let you know.
Another great episode. Could you explain what does "single-family dwelling" mean in SEC.165.06 item(6)? I thought a condo unit count as "single-family dwelling" but now I'm not so sure about it. I definitely own fewer than 4 units and I don't have more than 1 single family home on separate lot. It's the part it says the property has to be a "single-family dwelling" I don't get. What does that mean?
I believe they mean condos as well. In the beginning of the ordinance, they define "Residential real property" as any dwelling or unit that is intended for human habitation. I think they intend a single-family dwelling to include any type of dwelling for a single family.
@@WIREassociates I feel this is a trap. I really want to agree with you on this one and that's what I and everyone thought before. However this is not what LA city council stuff and LA housing department told me. They told me the language in the new ordinance basically means "single family house" and for condo owner you still pay 3 months + 1400 for relocation. I don't really know why they did it this way. They mentioned about giving small property owners a break in council meeting but they're not doing that. Now they also make owners can't afford to quit. One unit with $10k is already bad, imagine that a owner with 4 units got hit with $40K relocation assistance before he can quit.
What if you live in Los Angeles County and on section 8? It is not SRO and I am being evicted for business and economic reasons but they will not tell specifically why. Do they have to tell me specifically why and I live in Van Nuys, not Los Angeles County. Do they have to give me relocation assistance?
You are protected in LA City. They can't terminate your tenancy for "economic reasons" and will owe you relocation assistance if they can terminate your tenancy. You can reach out to LAHD and www.stayhousedla.org/
I believe that there is a California Law that passed in 2019 and it says that if you are being evicted for business and economic reasons than they have to pay you , is that true? @@WIREassociates
Thanks for responding. To clarify I meant that if I can prove that I am low income / have dependents/ sick family as the landlord , can I get concessions on how much I have to pay my tenants? We’re trying to move back in to the house we rent as we need to be closer to family (sick mother in law) and for work as I’m currently unemployed and have a baby.
@@andygerrard1926 Oh got it...no it won't reduce what you have to pay as a landlord. But if the property falls under RSO and the tenant falls into one of those categories, it'll be required that you are in the same category. It's called "similarly situated."
Could a qualified tenant to get relocation assistance be a single person that is not 62 years of age but a younger tenant whose income is 80% or less of the Area Median Income that is on medical but is not signed up for any HUD program ? Any comments ?
In LA City? Yes, if the landlord terminates your tenancy, you don't need to be a qualified tenant to receive at least one month's rent for relocation assistance.
What about single family home owned by a natural person who owns 6 single family homes, no apartments or units. Does that qualify the one month rent for relocation assistance?
@@seliahao5181 Should be good with one month's relocation assistance since the ordinance specifies: no more than four dwelling units and a single-family home on a separate lot in the City of Los Angeles"
Just to clarify: do any of these edicts for paying rental relocation assistance apply in the case of tenants living in a single family house, with minor children, in the city of LA, when their lease expires? Asking for a family member. Thanks.
Still protected for nonpayment of rent due to COVID through 3/31/23...watch this video 👉 ruclips.net/video/PfQiHeCfoNQ/видео.html If that's in LA City, it should fall under RSO with it's own set of rules 👉 housing.lacity.org/residents/rso-overview
Regarding sec 165.06 / part 6... Applies to "SINGLE" Family Home where LL owns no more than four units + 1 SFM. All I own is one small 3-unit "MULTI-family home". Could i take this route (1 months rent) to evict one unit?
@@WIREassociates So for a very small landlord who only owns 1 unit. If you serve notice to terminate lease and your tenant refuses to cooperate. It will become at-fault and then you don't need to pay 1 month rent as relocation fee. Did I get this right?
@@lastolemyhouse5795 Yes, that's it! As long as the notice was proper and properly served, the landlord would move to unlawful detainer for an at fault eviction and would not owe relocation assistance.

Once the judge make a judgment on an eviction, how long dose the landlord have to evict the tenant? You know, to have the cops remove tenant?
It'll depend on the timeline for the sheriff...it can be a few weeks or a few months depending on the area and backlog.

No concessions on relocation fees for this...in fact, they go up, but I recommend discussing with an attorney before moving forward.
Thanks for responding. To clarify I meant that if I can prove that I am low income / have dependents/ sick family as the landlord , can I get concessions on how much I have to pay my tenants? We’re trying to move back in to the house we rent as we need to be closer to family (sick mother in law) and for work as I’m currently unemployed and have a baby.
@@andygerrard1926 Oh got it...no it won't reduce what you have to pay as a landlord. But if the property falls under RSO and the tenant falls into one of those categories, it'll be required that you are in the same category. It's called "similarly situated."
Could a qualified tenant to get relocation assistance be a single person that is not 62 years of age but a younger tenant whose income is 80% or less of the Area Median Income that is on medical but is not signed up for any HUD program ? Any comments ?
In LA City? Yes, if the landlord terminates your tenancy, you don't need to be a qualified tenant to receive at least one month's rent for relocation assistance.
What about single family home owned by a natural person who owns 6 single family homes, no apartments or units. Does that qualify the one month rent for relocation assistance?
Are all 6 in LA City or are some outside LA City? If all 6 are in LA City, then probably not qualified.
@@WIREassociates 4 in LA city, one Inglewood, one torrance
@@seliahao5181 Should be good with one month's relocation assistance since the ordinance specifies: no
more than four dwelling units and a single-family home on a separate lot in the
City of Los Angeles"
This keeps getting worse. When will it end?
There's a couple more renter protections in LA City that will be passed soon...I'll have an update on those.
@@WIREassociates Ok great. Thank you!!!
When it ends depends upon YOU.
Just to clarify: do any of these edicts for paying rental relocation assistance apply in the case of tenants living in a single family house, with minor children, in the city of LA, when their lease expires? Asking for a family member. Thanks.
Yes, mot likely the ordinance would apply for nonrenewal of the lease, but discuss with an attorney.
Hi
So basically no more eviction protection but if wanting to evict they have to pay for the person to leave ?
The apartments were built 1939
Still protected for nonpayment of rent due to COVID through 3/31/23...watch this video 👉 ruclips.net/video/PfQiHeCfoNQ/видео.html
If that's in LA City, it should fall under RSO with it's own set of rules 👉 housing.lacity.org/residents/rso-overview
Can ya do this for San Diego? And what makes a remodel eviction
San Diego, Chula Vista & San Diego County would be helpful.
Can you give land price updates as well?
Triplex east Los Angeles county built 1955 owner lives one can he terminate tenancy on the other 2 there on month to month lease.
Regarding sec 165.06 / part 6... Applies to "SINGLE" Family Home where LL owns no more than four units + 1 SFM. All I own is one small 3-unit "MULTI-family home". Could i take this route (1 months rent) to evict one unit?
Yep, looks like you're eligible, but of course, discuss with an attorney.
@@WIREassociates So for a very small landlord who only owns 1 unit. If you serve notice to terminate lease and your tenant refuses to cooperate. It will become at-fault and then you don't need to pay 1 month rent as relocation fee. Did I get this right?
@@lastolemyhouse5795 Yes, that's it! As long as the notice was proper and properly served, the landlord would move to unlawful detainer for an at fault eviction and would not owe relocation assistance.
What about Orange County
As of now, only Santa Ana has rent control and eviction protections.
