Hundreds of tenants in San Diego County are caught in a wave of no-fault evictions. Officials want to keep landlords from abusing the system.
David Zimmerman prepares for a garage sale in North Park, April 20, 2022. He has received a notice to vacate from the property owner under a no-fault eviction.
So, the 30-year-old tenant complained to his friend’s mom. He said he wasn’t being aggressive; he was just tired of being cold. Right now, as long as non-paying tenants have applied for rental assistance, they can’t be evicted in most cases, said Gilberto Vera, senior attorney of the housing team withVera said the Legal Aid Society has seen an increase in the number of situations similar to the one Zimmerman is facing — an owner who is removing a tenant with a no-fault eviction, citing the need to substantially remodel the property and the desire to pull it off the market.
“Tenants here in our county are vulnerable from being exploited by their landlords because of these loopholes,” Vera said. This moratorium ties the hands of rental housing providers by restricting what they can do with property they own, she said, adding that cities and counties should instead require mediation before an eviction can be filed.
