Hello. I am currently living in a boarding house ( 1864 Cordova street ) near Washington Blvd. near Koreatown.
The owner ( landlord ) of this place has recently changed and it is now managed by "ALTMAN APARTMENTS".

Its owner ( 1864 CORDOVA STREET,LLC ) has sent an eviction notis through the court.
I don't understand what's going on, I pay rent every month and I didn't do anything wrong.

The house is predominantly Latino American and it seems that many other residents have been sent similar notices.
So I consulted through a place called StayHousedLA, and a lawyer who works for me as a volunteer told me that such notices are invalid.

Then the owner now gave me a document saying that he would pay me $1500 to agree to evict me.
Apparently, the owner wants to demolish the entire house and rebuild it into a new building and start running it again, and he wants to evict us for that.

The lawyer advised us that we should not agree to the amount offered because it is too cheap.
This lawyer does a good job of nullifying my appearance in court.

But if the owner offers me an even higher amount, I wonder what I should do.
So far, no residents seem to be willing to agree to the amount and move out, but I am afraid that if other residents start moving out, I will have to do the same.

Is this kind of arrogance acceptable ? Even if I were to agree to move, what amount do you think I should agree to ?
My current rent is very cheap ( less than $450 per month ) and I have no other options If I were to find a place to move to, I don't think it would be that easy to find a place in the Los Angeles area with a cheaper rent than I have now.
I would appreciate your advice on how to handle this situation in the future.

If you go to EDN (Eviction Defense Network ∷ and ask for help.

EDN has people coming to them with eviction problems, so
if boarding house residents get together
and hire a lawyer to handle it
the owner can't easily They will not be able to evict them.
