Urgent help needed re: 60 day notice to quit

[Erica W.]

Hi! This is my first post. I have to give a tenant in a condo a 60 day notice to quit in California. I know I am not required to give a reason, but I am being asked for one. I don't want to stir the pot by telling the tenant about the ongoing HOA complaints (long story). I plan to renovate and re-rent. I don't know what to say to the tenant. Please advise!! Thank you.

Tell them you're going to gut the property completely renovating for a future sale.That should shut them up.If they question you tell them firmly it's none of their business why you wanna do it.Follow the law to the letter and make sure you are helpful to them finding a new place by cooperating with answering the potential new landlords questions.This will keep them from wrecking your place while walking out the door.
