Q) I own a rent controlled building. Once a tenant moves out I renovate the unit and then rent it out for a significantly higher rent amount. One of my tenants is claiming that I am discriminating against him because I won't renovate his unit. He claims he will report me to the city. Is there anything I can do?
A) Yes, you can tell this tenant that he can move into one of your newly renovated units and pay the higher rent amount. If he does not take this option you do still have the obligation to keep his unit habitable.
