Moving back into a month to month Rental in Oakland

[Emanuel Vega]

Hello Bigger pockets! I have a a situation on my hands that I do not have any experience in & looking for sound advice from the amazing BP community. I have a rental property that Is currently leased on a month to month basis that I used to live in but have since moved out. There is going to be some changes in my living conditions and I wanted to move back into the property the is currently leased. Knowing that Oakland has very strict housing laws I am wondering what my options are before I consult an attorney so I can have a better understanding of the situation. Any advice is much appreciated!

@Emanuel Vega you probably already feel it, but you are kind of hosed. Don't pay a lawyer yet. Go to the RAP office and speak to the legal counsel there on your options. Go there on Tuesday or Thursday between 9:30 and 1 pm, there will be somebody there to give you advice. You can go other days or hours, but the legal counsel is only available on those days at those times. 

Good luck!
