Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Re: New Owner Wants To Raise Rent

When you have a lease, the rent cannot be raised. You may need a strong letter directed to the landlord. Please contact my office at 714 363 0220 to set up an appointment. I would like to review your written documentation including any letters. We handle cases throughout California. We can review your documentation by fax and speak with you by phone.

Re: New Owner Wants To Raise Rent

The new owner cannot raise the rent during the lease. Make sure that there is a lease and that your sister-in-law is not on a month-to-month arrangement. If the latter, the rent can be raised every month.

Re: New Owner Wants To Raise Rent

No, new owner must honor lease.

This is just general information. No representations are made and no attorney client relationship is established by this communication. In most matters there are strict time limitations within which actions may be taken or your rights will be compromised. We are not taking any action on your matter and will not be considered your attorney or tax representative until both you and we have signed a fee agreement.

We, therefore will take no action on your behalf unless a written retainer agreement is signed. There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you do not retain SELIKLAW, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney or other advisor.
