Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

You should have an attorney, otherwise you can get into trouble. If you dont follow procedure exactly, they can potentially sue you for wrongful eviction. The first thing I would examine is the lease. Then, I would offer the place to the current tenant at the higher rent, in other words, raise the rent with proper notice. If they do not accept, then terminate the relationship and evict following all the proper procedures, which are so complex, even lawyers can disagree about their details and proper execution.

Best,
