I am about to be evicted from my home.

Problem / Need advice

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.

Allowed.　Was the code number of the law written on the document you were given ？ If not, ask what you have to leave with $ 1500 as a reference.　Unless the code name of the law is written.　And, actually, Google it to see if that law exists.　

$ For 450 rent, $ 1,500 payment is reasonable, but you may have missed it, so please refer to the local ordinance, or if not, the state law.　You will get 60 to 180 days to leave, not 30 days notice.

If you have to leave because of the landlord's circumstances, you will have to find a new place to live and will usually be given a reasonable amount of money and time to find an apartment.　

Apartments in Santa Monica and West Hollywood, where rent control is in effect, may be unusually cheap.

I have been wondering about this topic for quite some time.
It may not be relevant to people who own their own homes, but for people like me who live in rents, I wondered if it would be of interest... And.

#56 ==It is normal to be given a good amount of money and time to find an apartment

Is it written in the contract ？ In a normal month to month document, the owner or tenant can cancel the contract in 30 ／ 60 days.

＃ 58

In a normal month to month document, the contract can be terminated by the owner or tenant in 30 ／ 60 days.

A volunteer lawyer will negotiate the tenant's wishes
with the new owner in between.
