Q) I have been renting to one of my tenants for ten years. About a year ago his girlfriend moved in and the started paying me rent. I have not added her to the rental agreement. Now my original tenant is moving out but the girlfriend is staying. Can I raise the rent to market value or can I only raise it the 3% that the Rent Stabilization allows?
A) Per Civil Code 1954.53 this would be considered a new tenancy and you can raise the rent to market value. If the rent will raise more than 10% you must serve a 60 day notice.
