One of the tenants is a problem tenant, and on on government assistance. recently she got in an altercation with one of the other tenants causing them to break their lease and moved out.

Curious what the stance is of government entities in each market in California.

Although we can't be for certain on the payment history of the the tenants, we did find out that one tenant has been there for 13 years (unit B) while two tenants are getting their rents heavily subsidized by the government (I might add unit C is abandoned but the government is paying the rent until the lease is over in a few months or so I'm told and unit D is the one being evicted - he hasn't paid his portion).
