STATE SPECIFIC CALIFORNIA
Starting this month, UNincorporated areas of LA County have raised the threshold to 2X the FMR to be able to evict.
Example: In LA County, FMR for 2 Bdrm is (approx) $2400
That means the tenant would need to be in arrears of $4800 BEFORE you even send out a 3 day notice (they still have 3 day notices in California, unlike NY where it is a 14 day notice).
Raise your rents appropriately
Up your screening to the absolute max (credit score no lower than 700)
If you get a bad tenant, demand that the rent go into escrow with the court.
Conceivably a serial tenant could live rent free for an entire year with this edict. Which they are already doing in NYC.

So? I’m sure the eviction has to be held within X number of days from the time the landlord files. In Pa, it’s 7 to 15. File asap in month #1 that allows your filing timeline to carry into month #2. Then tell the clerks you’re unavailable until day 1 of month 2. Month # 2 rent will be due at that time. --24.152.xxx.xx |

NE, You CAN'T file for an eviction until the tenant is significantly in arrears.
After that, the pro tenant will ask for a mandatory continuance followed by request for a jury trial.
see: youtube.com/watch?v=eRn0DdNnAXQ
Phase 1: Pre Filing Wait (waiting to cross 2X FMR threshold)
Phase 2: Filing and Service Evasion. tenant dodges service and requires "order for posting"
Phase 3: Procedural Road Blocks: Motion to quash, Demurrer; delay tactics AKA LEGAL AID (you are now into month SIX)
Phase 4: Jury Trial Demand; Backlogs push jury trial out
Phase 5: Sheriff Backlog Lockout takes more than 2 months after judgement (congrats you're now at 12 months no rent)

This is why screening is so important in these places. It is also why I need fact to face meetings on top of that. That however requires a lot of experience and is more of an art.
Interestingly except in areas that have no choice it has absolutely made it impossible for the people who are on the margins. You can’t give someone a chance even if you would have in the past. --162.204.xxx.xxx |

NE, coming to an area near you. Soon not even good ol' Pennsylvania will be able to hide. There will be NO place to move TO.
Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina used to laugh at the insane BLUE state rules and say "that will NEVER happen here!" Now they have to eat crow.
Never say never. --64.246.xxx.xx |

It may come here but I won’t deal with it. Let the tenants eat the long term crow of living in government housing when all the private sector evaporates. See the difference between me and you Mapleleaf, is you still think there’s hope. You still think you can “vote in” a better America. I don’t. I’ll sell rentals if I have to and focus on low balling landlords who hung in too long hoping for a better future. Then flip them. I fully expect all this blue nonsense to get worse. --24.152.xxx.xx |

Strange how these fixes to help tenants actually hurt the least qualified applicants. The more we tighten our standards due to these laws, the harder it is for these folks to qualify. --173.188.xx.xxx |

Exactly right, Ray.
How does one get the facts out to the masses that believe the hype?
So many want a free ride and to hell with the consequences. --47.227.xx.xxx |
