What is an eviction?
Sometimes landlord-tenant relations can be complicated, especially when talking about something like evictions, known legally as unlawful detainers. Here’s some general information that may provide some clarification:
In the state of California, a landlord may evict a tenant if they:
1. Fail to pay the rent on time;
2. Break the rental agreement and will not fix the problem (i.e. having pets when no pets are allowed);
3. Damage property and thereby lower the property value;
