Receiving a 30-day notice can be stressful, especially after living in your home since 2016. First, carefully review the notice to understand the reason for termination and ensure it complies with California laws. Typically, if you've been a tenant for over a year, a 60-day notice is required unless there are specific circumstances like nonpayment of rent or lease violations.
Next, consider reaching out to your landlord to discuss the notice. There might be room for negotiation or clarification that could extend your stay or address any issues leading to the notice. Document all communications and keep copies of the notice and any related correspondence.
If you're unsure about your rights or the validity of the notice, it may be helpful to consult with a local tenant rights organization or seek legal advice. Acting promptly can give you more options and help you navigate the situation effectively.
