Tenant's Guest having issues with another tenant. California
Hi All,
So here is the full story, abbreviated version:
- Tenant A brought girlfriend over to the house, Tenant B brought friend over to the house
- Girlfriend and friend get into physical altercation, both asked to leave for a month to cool off
- Tenant A broke agreement, girlfriend still coming over. A month goes by, no issues until tonight
- Tenant B says girlfriend threatened to hit her, Tenant B gets police and lawyer involved
As a landlord, my solution was to ask BOTH guests (not the tenant) to never come back to the house again, or I will evict the respective tenant. Tenant B agreed, Tenant A disagrees and now we are caught up to present day.
In California, what are my obligations as a landlord in resolving this issue? Both tenants pay rent, never had issues with either tenant. Only issues with guest towards tenant. Thank you for your insight!
