Huntington Beach, CA asked in Landlord - Tenant and Real Estate Law for California

Q: Can 76 yr-old give a 60-day notice to terminate residence with two 12-month + tenants? Going to assisted living.

My residence is in Huntington Beach - I am concerned about California Civil Code Section 1946.2 "just cause". Selling home to pay for assisted living due to health reasons. I will withdraw the residence from the rental market.

1 Lawyer Answer

A: The answer depends on a number of factors including how title is held and whether appropriate notices have been given. I would definitely recommend consulting with a real estate attorney before giving notice or trying to sell. Even better, hire realtors that are also attorneys to help you with the entire process.
