Q and A with Prop West

Q) I recently found out that my tenant lied on his application. He told me that he had never been evicted and I have now found out that he was evicted twice before. I really do not feel comfortable with this person in my building. This is a rent controlled building. Is this grounds for eviction?

A) Misrepresentation on an application would not be grounds for an eviction unless there is a term in your rental agreement that states: "Misrepresentations on an application will be considered a material breech of this rental agreement."
