California Landlord's Law Book, The: Evictions

Résumé du livre

Your step-by-step guide to evicting a problem tenant in California

Here, you’ll find all of the forms you need along with clear, step-by-step instructions on how to:

• prepare nonpayment of rent notices
• prepare 3-, 30-, 60-, and 90-day notices
• complete and serve all required eviction forms
• deal with tenants’ delaying tactics, and
• file your “unlawful detainer” complaint in court.

Merely filing an eviction lawsuit might prompt the tenant to leave. If it doesn’t, you’ll learn how to:

• handle a contested eviction suit by yourself—and know when to get professional help
• respond to a tenant’s defenses and claims
• evict a tenant who has filed for bankruptcy or is occupying property you purchased at a foreclosure sale, and
• collect unpaid rent after you win.
