Frequently Asked Questions.

What is a tenant buyout?

A tenant buyout is when a landlord offers compensation in exchange for the tenant voluntarily leaving the unit — often faster and less risky than formal eviction.

How can I legally evict a tenant?

Landlords must follow the formal unlawful detainer process. We help ensure your notices, filings, and court steps meet California law.

What rights do tenants have during eviction?

Tenants are protected by local and state laws that require just cause, proper notice, and court procedure. We help defend against illegal evictions or landlord harassment.

How do I respond to a notice to quit or eviction?

Tenants should act quickly. You may have legal defenses or negotiation options — we can help review your case and respond appropriately.
