Q and A with Prop West

Q) I just bought a non-rent controlled building and none of the tenants have rental agreements. I drafted new agreements and all of the tenants refused to sign them. What options do I have?

A) Actually, you have two options. The first would be to serve them a 3-Day Notice to Cure or Quit and if they do not sign the agreement or move in within the time period you can start eviction. The second option would be to send them the new agreement along with a 30-Day Notice to Change Tenancy. Once the 30 days have passed the new agreement will be legally binding. This can not be done to establish a fixed term lease, only a month to month lease.
