San Diego eviction process

[Wai Chan]

Has anyone gone through a at fault eviction process with tenant in the City of San Diego recently? I am considering evict my tenant with at fault just cause due to the lease violation (

parking, trash, common area cleanliness). I heard that the waiting time for a court trial is 5-6 months and another 2 months for having the sheriff to remove the tenant (only one police office in the whole city of San Diego to execute the writ of possession now). I have called a few places and the cost is about 8K from start to finish. I know there is a new tenant protection law but the waiting time is extremely unfair to landlord. On top of the eviction fee, I would need to consider not getting any rent for 7-8 months? Is it that crazy?

Can anyone share a recent experience to evict tenant in San Diego?
