Landlord’s 'Proposal' in CA: Is It a Premature Eviction Notice?

After five years renting a studio on a hotel property, my landlord floated a questionable offer after I requested repairs and a stop to courtyard vandalism, suggesting a soft eviction.

Based on personal experience and careful review of similar situations, it appears that the landlord’s proposal might be a tactic to encourage a voluntary departure without following proper legal eviction processes. When I encountered a comparable issue, I found that the landlord’s communication was deliberately vague in order to shift responsibility for repairs away from them. It is important to insist on clear, written documentation regarding repairs and any changes in tenancy terms. Consulting local tenant laws or a legal expert can help clarify your rights and ensure the proposal does not violate any statutory protections.

hey sophia, this feels like a subtle move to force you out w/o following proper process. its best to check tenant laws & maybe get legal advice. keep all agreements in writing!
