No "Squatters" Law - Landlord Forum thread 114890

No "Squatters" Law by SDlandlord on October 25, 2005 @18:38

                              
No, he doesn't get to stay. He's not "home free" after a year of free-loading.

The boyfriend is a month-to-month tenant, albeit with $0 monthly rent, but a tenant nonetheless. Treat him as such.

First, go to your library and get some books on landlording. Also, Nolo Press puts out an excellent California Landlord book, about $30 and worth every penny. Make sure you have the latest edition, check your local bookstore or online.

If you want him to stay and pay rent, give him a WRITTEN 30 day notice of change of terms of tenancy (rent increase). If he doesn't pay on time, start eviction proceedings.

If you want him out, give him a WRITTEN 30 day termination notice. If he doesn't leave on time, start eviction proceedings.

Good luck.
