Eviction in Los Angeles (PM guarantees rent... but)

[Yun Han]

Hello,

I recently received news from my property management (PM) company that they have initiated an eviction process against my tenant due to non-payment of rent, despite several attempts to resolve the issue. While I'm relieved that my PM company guarantees my rent until the end of the lease term (November), and they will also cover up to $15k in the eviction process, I want to prepare for any potential worst-case scenarios given that I live in Los Angeles, California.

Currently, the PM company is waiting for the attorney to draft the eviction application, and they have promised to keep me informed of any updates. However, I am curious about what else I can do to ensure the process goes as smoothly as possible.

If anyone has any advice or suggestions on what I can do to prepare for any potential issues, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.
