Avoiding the ravages and savages of the divorce court system. 

Curious how this will play out in the courts (granted it's LTR) and affect pricing products used for STR such as PriceLabs (which I use but have to seriously manually adjust for very specific reasons).

Given the # of people effected, it would probably only take about 50 years to clear court.....

1) Yiu REALLY need to know what CA will  allow you to do, I don’t know, but the state may say too bad landlord, you lose. 2) Assuming your attorney (Or you if you’re able to decode the laws that relate to your situation and are willing to go to court in front of a judge against a “sick” kid.) think you have the right to collect the rent I’d give them two options. 

Give it time, this is getting shredded in court as we speak.

Not worth time & effort to go to court, your first meeting with an attorney will cost you as much as the rent.

Give her 30 days notice now, keep her security deposit, and send her a additional bill for damages to the unit in lieu of taking her to court for the damages.

She's not going to have any leg to stand on in court if you get that far unless there's some explicit language prohibiting the owner from assigning responsibilities to another legally authorized party, and I'm guessing there isn't if another PM company was maintaining the lease and provisions - and the fact that the tenant was voluntarily working with the other PM confirms the acceptance of an authorized agent even if it's not explicitly stated, the same way if you accept rent from a tenant after a lease expires you imply acceptance of the lease terms continuing (which is why you should always have a holdover provision). 

Why wouldn’t you go to court?
