30 days notice disparity

[Franklin Blevins]

Hello,

I have been living here in Monterey California for one year and I am about to move into a bigger home in nearby Marina.

The big problem I am having is the huge disconnect between the owner I am renting from and the new owner that I want to rent from.

Both property owners know that I am required to give 30 days notice of my intent to vacate the premises. Yet every single new property that I want to rent from ignore that requirement when it comes to me moving into their property. In effect what new property owners want you to do is pay dual rents because they will not honor the 30 days that I must give my landlord. They want me in there....now. Not 30 days from now......now.

I am not willing to give 30 days notice when I have not secured a rental property to move into because I can't know in advance that I am going to find a property that suits my needs.

I suppose in the end the reality is this: There is a place that is perfect for us and that place is owned by a person that knows what the rules are and are willing to wait the 30 days for my current rental to expire. But based on my observations I may be a very old man before I find that match.

Anyway, I wanted to hear from both sides of the fence and I guess this forums is a good place to start.

Can you please advise what I should do.

Thank you and best regards,
