I totally agree with John. You are under no obligation to oblige this request. It does not benefit you in the least. You may not increase the rent to offset...not legal.

Is there a specific set of reasons to raise rent in CA? Why can't LL give proper notice and simply raise the rent for any or no reason? (Assuming not rent controlled and this is M2M).

    Other than annual entitlement, no. To offset the increase cost of 'living' like water, insurance or taxes as long as it falls under the 10% rule it should be enough to raise rent annually. Anything other than that must be petitioned and approved by the local or county rent board or housing authority. I raise rents annually and just site the ordinance that allows me to do so. But to allow a Change of Terms of Tenancy and then charge additionally for that accommodation is not legal.
