Allen Humphries Tenant bailed, what do I do?
23 February 2020 | 13 replies
Allen Humphries you mentioned your lease doesn't say who does what.Loose contracts like that when they go to court tend to have the whole lease or parts of it deemed unenforceable by a judge in a court of law for being unlawful or too vague.Just because something is written in a contract doesn't make it legal or enforceable.Just like tire flaps on big trucks saying they are not responsible for flying rocks etc. so some people read and believe that stuff.

Lawrence Leung Oppose AB 828: the Unfair Attempt to Reduce Rents by 25% in CA
18 April 2020 | 2 replies
Visit CAA's Action Center to send a letter to your legislator urging them oppose AB 828.This bill denies equal justice to property owners by:1) Forcing landlords to reduce rents by 25% even if a tenant cannot demonstrate a hardship or need.2) Allowing judges and the court system to set rents and change the rental agreements already in place.3) Assuming every tenant is facing a hardship related to COVID-19 and must be compensated for this hardship.4) Protecting nuisance tenants as it does not require tenants to answer an unlawful detainer complaint.5) Mandating that rental property owners demonstrate an economic hardship to collect the contracted rent.
