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.

The fact that the forced eviction papers came through the court itself would already make the eviction official and legal. A professional management company will be professional. Rocky Patel is of Indian descent and is a lawyer. $ You don't have to pay the 1500 eviction fee, but I guess I will. The lawyer of the owner says he will try to get more, but if he gets too greedy, the judge will think that he has no gratitude for having lived so cheaply ? Did you live so cheaply for 20 years and did not save or invest? You are now paying $ 1000 just to rent a room. You have been living for 20 years on less than $ 450, and I don't understand why you are upset.  $ You should feel sorry for yourself and regret that you were stupid enough to think that your 450 apartment rent was permanent, and from now on, save your money.

It's because of arrogant, selfish people like you that landlords set up companies and keep their names to themselves. There is a tax aspect to it. You go out of your way to research it and put it on a public forum and then swear that you are an arrogant, law-breaking landlord. You are nothing but malice. He would be another normal businessman. Move to the country and live a carefree life, not a grueling one. Living in a tent is free. If you don't like it.

It is for the court to decide whether or not it is invalid. It is not for a lawyer to decide. The lawyer is just saying what he says.
