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.

the trial concluded, a judgment was entered ?
we received the forced eviction papers through the court
the papers didn't just come ?

the forced eviction papers say yes
you have to move out by I guess.

No, it's the other way around.
You're a typical type of Trump follower who mistakenly resents the fact that more immigrants have caused rents to rise, inflation to rise, and their own lives to become more difficult than they were 30 years ago.

Rent will go up as immigration increases ? ? ? ? ?
I don't get it
I can understand if rent goes up as high income people increase, but prices will not go up as low income people increase, on the contrary they will go down

I have read the comments of various people and would like to hear what Topi thinks about it at the moment.
Do you still think you are right and the owner is arrogant, or have you changed your mind in some way...?

The basis of the economy is that prices rise when demand exceeds supply.
When the population declines due to a falling birthrate, as in Japan, demand decreases and real estate prices fall.

Apparently the pandemic caused no apartments or housing to be built and rents to go up.

> The contributors need to be more angry at the arrogant owner.

What arrogance ? It's just business as usual.

The $1200 eviction fee is reasonable because the rent is $ 450. Even if you do your best to resist, it's still about 10 times more than Rent.

the problem was resolved and I was able to live there safely.

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.

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.
