- Kristine Lazar looks into tenant rights as Torrance residents are being told they have six weeks to move as their building was sold and is set for demolition
Affordable housing for seniors @ $5800 per month v. $1300 for low income. I'm guessing GREED has something to do with this.
That’s about $650,000 a month vs $155,000 for 111 rooms in rent. Yes total greed.
25 billion dollars spent on homeless ,and not housing for these people!!
Not to mention undocumented immigrants getting everything free from the state.😏
Contact Governor Gavin! Corporate Greed! 😠
LOL!
This is why we moved out of state. New owners raised our rent to 1895 for a one bedroom. Rent is ridiculously high all profits for owners and no empathy for people.
Same here in Austin except our wages are alot lower. And what are the disabled and elderly to do? No one is building housing they can afford! There are going to be alot more homeless people. When will this greed end or will it end America as we know it.
The plan is to build affordable housing for seniors. Why is that bad? Also, they are not tenants... they are Lodgers, in temporary housing.
I’m the spokesperson for the tenants. Your comment is incredibly ignorant and has no logic. Go educate yourself !
@Ameeranasser83 Ignorant?? I assisted in cases like this. Still do. The terms of their agreement was not a rental agreement, nor was it a lease. The plan is to build affordable housing for aging poor. This comes from a State initiative pushing for areas like Torrance to build more for our aging poor.
If you failed to read this law, and can't understand that this isn't a formal eviction, then I'm guessing you're ill-advised, slow in your ability to comprehend and driven by anger and not facts.
Grow up..
@@Ameeranasser83 Why don't you flesh that out. You have an audience now. What did they get wrong? The fact that the "just cause" protections turn all stays longer than 30 days into tenants? Which is making it virtually impossible to rent a motel room for close to 30 days or for less than $100 per night. Would your group be better off if the building owner had not rented to you? Would the building owner be better off now had they never rented to you? Do you think another building owner might keep their building vacant if they have a long-term plan that requires the building to be vacant in the future based on this case?
@@mwatercress everything what you’re saying you just screams dumb and ignorant and you’re just a waste of a breath. I’m going to pray for you because your statements have no logic
@mwatercress The just-cause lease termination laws do not apply to all types of residential properties. The following are completely exempt from the statute: Hotels and dormitories,
Short-term rentals (less than 30 days),
Shared housing with the owner also residing on the premises
Most single family homes, townhouses, and condominiums
Homes built within 15 years prior to the termination.
The audience can also review California Civil Code 1946.5.
This builsing never converted to legal units. It remained a hotel, having housed many during the pandemic. The owner issued extended stays, and did not require Lodgers to prove 3xs the income to stay. This building is exempt from Just Cause ordinances from the State.
Post pandemic, this hotel, like many others, assured short-term stays, via some extensions were issued. But it was NEVER a lease or a rental agreement. Hotels across L.A. county transition back to hotels, legally exiting the homeless with 60-day notices. Those also complained, tried to fight what they called an "illegal eviction" and lost.
Your turn. Seems you throw out laws without reading or implementing them.
The audience can decide if your ignorance knows no bound.
If it is a hotel or motel. There is no lease. I don't know about California . Here in Chicago IL. Apartments and Hotels are completely different. No money to relocate.
Why would anyone want to be a landlord in CA. when the state is always against you.? Couldn’t collect rent or evict during COVID for two years. Now they fight eviction to the very last ridiculous excuse.
Because that’s how half the idiots in California make their living is by gouging the poor for the rent if you can’t figure that out you’re either a landlord in disguise or you will always be went to hurricanes
Los Angeles dragged it out even longer, almost 4 years
@@user-lp1jw9bo5y If that is the case, you should be able to solve the problem with tenant owned housing coops and nonprofit developer landlords. What we see with those types of projects is that they can cost upwards of a million per unit to complete. In my part of rural Northern California a nonprofit developed RV site at a cost of $2,750 a month per RV site. And theses folks are paying a private for profit $1,300 a month and can't afford to move. It's not the private landlords creating this problem, it's NIMBYs and labor and environmental groups weaponizing CEQA for their own gain.
@mwatercress in other words, typical California "leadership:
@@mwatercress No one wants RV sites near them. They devalue property values.
Relocation fee of one month rent? What happens when they aren't even paying rent?
How sad for both those who have to leave and the developers. I see both sides 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Profit over people? What a shocker.🤯
Then you house some of them for free at your place.
THIS IS happening throughout the entire Country!....Also, other COUNTRIES,...Australia, UNITED KINGDOM, Canada,...etc
Whatever you call them, once they're there for more than 30 days they're "tenants" under the law
Exactly why the law has them here in the first place
Exactly!!! Tell that to the ignorant people in the comments that have no logic and speak from ignorance and idiocracy
No matter what you call them, it's not their home. It belongs to the owner.
Yes they are tenants. But laws are completely different for Apartments and Hotels. Fact . Most Hotels do not have leases. Fact.
@@MysonKirby Laws also require that hotels not rent the same room to the same occupant for 30 days in a row. The owner chose to break that law. The occupants became tenants after 30 days, and they weren’t squatters who broke in without the owner’s permission either. A written lease is good business practice but not required to create a legal tenancy.
Hotels.... The last rental units with owner rights. Hotels have guests and clients, not residents or tenants. Hotels are not homes.
They are not renters and do not deserve rental protection. They are in a motel not an apartment building.
The hotel occupants became legal tenants after 30 days, regardless whether the building is a hotel or residential apartments. And the hotel occupants were not squatters who broke or snuck inside without the owner’s permission. The owner chose to break the law that hotels cannot rent the same room to the same occupant for over 30 days.
@@christopherstone6962I do not know that that is the actual law in every state.
@@christopherstone6962 That is so true I use to live in a hotel this was back in 1988 which, I could stay continue to stay but had to move every 30 days to another hotel room. I lived that way for about a year until I was able to find an apartment at the time. This was in Los Angeles, so laws are still the same. 30 days you have to move out.
Then all the idiots want to complain about why there are so many depressed homeless drug addicts everywhere... It's just getting increasingly impossible to survive. I fell into homelessness during the pandemic and live in a Toyota Sienna now.
it's a bunch of NIMBYs who want to block anyone from building new housing. we have a huge housing shortage
Yet the states with strong property rights are able to grow and add many more homes per year than California. People leave states with strong rent control and eviction protections and move to states without them because they are able to find higher quality housing that it both available and more affordable. In those states the median income is much closer to the median home price than they are in California. States like Texas have been able to transition many more people from homelessness to permanent housing for a fraction of what we in California have invested in our "solutions" to homelessness. We have "invested" fortunes in the billions and watched the problem grow worse.
If you can't afford to live in a city or state, move to a cheaper one. Get a roommate, etc.
@@d.fenestrator9529 you people really can't think about anything beyond the individual level can you? someone has to be around to do the "low-paying jobs" that an economy needs. if those people all moved away guess what happens, those jobs don't get done, and wages have to rise. meaning inflation in the price of everything. that's why fast food prices are so high now.
the problem is a lack of housing, because people block every proposed apartment project and there's no meaningful controls on how much rent anyone can charge. that's why everything else costs so much
@@mwatercress Those states bus all their homeless to California lol
Six weeks? What a panic.
Was supposed to be for seniors not young ppl looking for cheap rent
Why would any one own property to rent out in California?
And why would they invest their money to build rental housing for others? Most of the rental housing projects being built are part of the LIHTC program with huge tax credit incentives and they are exempt from rent control. In my part of California market rate rental housing projects are being canceled because just the construction costs are more than the market value of the completed project so they can't get financing. The state has taken so many property rights away from owners that it will be very difficult to build the housing needed to meet the housing needs we have now.
Because the rent prices are sky high
@@ShameenYakubu Not as high as the price of buying.
If they stayed 30 consecutive days and received mail in their name are Winner Winner Bonafide Chicken Dinner y'all are tennants Call Motel 6, The Ritz Carlton Pasadena and Los Angeles Four Seasons. Ask for a 30 day stay, they will say no, they will allow 28 day stays and you want to forward mail for 30 days. You won't get a 30/30 room/mail, good luck!
Where can they find to live in 6wks when all of their money is being used to save for monthly rent? America is against poor Americans. They need at least 6 months to save and not have to pay rent; if they want them out so bad. Fair trade.
Have they payed their Rent. If they have its certainly no secret.
Maybe they should take this as an opportunity to get out of Cali??
Heck no the other 49 states dont want them!
They may have to share homes together
Here's an idea ... don't live in Los Angeles unless you're rich!
temporary housing. they need to leave
To where? A tent on the sidewalk?
They are here to replace you and permanently there so

Wow 😮😮
The lesson here is that a private lodging owner should never take in guests at a rate that they wouldn't want to continue in perpetuity. . California has transferred so many elements of property rights from the owners to the occupants that the deed buys little more than a property tax bill and potential liabilities. If you have future plans for the property that requires the building to be vacant, keep it vacant. You could rent under a licensing agreement for less than 30 days, but California does have a track record of changing the rules in the middle of the game on property owners. The root cause is that when local governments build housing for this demographic a project can take 10 years to complete and cost $1 million per unit.
Every one complains but always remember the owner has the right to raised what ever he or she wants only people and politicians complain because there loosers.
Any property with a transient occupancy permit should be exempt from the "just cause" eviction laws. Without that we will lose an important emergency housing option in the market. There is a reason that transitional housing programs are exempt and that should be extended to legitimate short-term rentals
As usual, you want owners to take the loss.
@@dcg590 No just the opposite
Other wording, huge strides changes betterment/calif, comedy club
Nope they should fight and stay. In a state of squatters rights stay it’s not squatting
just move , stop the DRAMA ,
And where do you propose they go? They have zero affordable housing
Each case is different. For the disabled it is so worrisome.

When you make rent that cheap ($1,395 in a very expensive area like LA) for people who are unemployed and/or disabled, people in droves will find a reason to be unemployed and/or disabled.

Lol not even true. I know many ready to work. Business don't want to hire or can't stay in business. I smell bs from you. Plus...you mean to say those business are willing to pay market rate rents!???

Landlords are pulling this all over the country and tenants don't have the thousands it costs to fight it in court where they will have to wait for 2 years to get in front of a judge. This is not right on any level.
