Legal Grounds for Eviction

Unit is Being Taken off the Market

If you are taking your property off the rental market for the foreseeable future, you can file to evict the current tenants. Each state will have different rules regarding the process for this type of eviction.

For example: In the state of California, this is known as the Ellis Act. Under this Act, the owner must plan to retire the property from residential use for at least 10 years. They must notify tenants who are 62 years of age or older and tenants who are disabled one year in advance and must notify all other tenants at least 120 days in advance of withdrawing the property. The landlord must also file a Notice of Intent to Withdraw the property with the Rent Board and is responsible for paying each tenant a relocation amount which varies each year.

Owner Move-In

If you, the landlord or property manager, plan to move into a rental unit, you can file to evict the current tenant. In addition, if you currently live in the property, you can file to evict the current tenant if you have an immediate family member who plans to move into the unit.

Rules will vary by state. Some states require that you plan on living in the unit for at least three years. You often cannot evict a tenant for this reason if they have lived in the unit for more than 10 years or are disabled. You must wait until the end of the school year to evict a tenant with children.

If a tenant has lived in a unit for at least one year, you are often responsible for paying a tenant’s relocation costs. In addition, if you have a comparable vacant unit at the property or at any other property you own, you must offer it to the tenant at whatever the market rate is for that particular unit.

You must file a Notice to Quit for this type of eviction at least two months in advance. You must give more notice in many states.
