Tennat issues- asking for handicap railing after living for 2 yrs

[Ryan Passi]

Property in Los Angeles, CA. Tenant who is generally obnoxious but paying on time. Now asking that her mom who lives with her for past 2 years, now can't go up 3 steps to front door due to her knees. Is asking me to install a support railing on those steps.

Who pays for this? Am I obligated to install railing?

Also she is hosting Zumba sessions in the backyard without my permission with about 20-30 people. When asked got defensive and angry saying that she has every right to host friends and I can take her to court if I want.

What are my options?

Thanks for your help

Hi Ryan,

Wow parking for 30 dancing Zumba goers must make the street a true zoo(omba).

30 friends getting together for dancing for fitness private party at someones house every Sunday after church, is different than using the property as a fitness destination business.

It would be smart to ascertain which you have here.

Simply telling her, your Sister wants to lose few pounds Zuba-ing--how much does it cost and can you have the join-up paper work for her might tell you what you need to know. Free friends vs a business.

Good Luck!
