In short.The Ellis Act is a provision in California Law (Government Code section 7060-7060.7[sup][1][/sup]) that provides landlords in California with a legal way to "go out of business" short of selling the property to another landlord. It is often used as a way out of municipal rent control provisions.[sup][2][/sup]
The Ellis Act "was adopted by the California Legislature in 1985 after the California Supreme Court ruled that landlords do not have the right to evict tenants to go out of the business of being a landlord".[sup][3][/sup]
Municipalities can regulate the Ellis Act eviction process to some extent. Those that do typically restrict the property from use as a rental property for a period of time and require that it go back under rent control provisions if it is returned to the rental market.[sup][4][/sup]
RIP to him
something like this happened when i was college but the university just let the guy be....
"Eddie Bieber, whose shirtless appearance outside The Schenley residence hall earned him the nickname Old Man Schenley, died May 31 at GW Hospital at 96 years old.
Bieber spent nearly one month in the hospital due to complications from a hip injury. A native Washingtonian, Bieber lived in the same apartment in The Schenley for more than 60 years, paying $203 in rent each month. As he aged, Bieber saw hundreds of student residents come and go from his long-time home."

investment..they probably buy out folks, dont like that they're paying X when they feel it should be worth Y.Couldnt watch the video.. Does this company flip properties within weeks or months? Do they renovate properties? Or just evict tenates and "improve" the value that way? It seems like they are just a bully middleman

Are you happy in life?
Perspective changes as you get older. I'm sure many people thought like that then started having grand kids.damn she hard to look at

In short.
As a landlord myself, I wish I could have evicted a tenant once, but they ended up leaving so I lucked out.
This old lady shouldn't be evicted. Raise rent, sure, but evict would be extreme IMO.
She probably on that grandfathered rent, and since you're limited to how much you can raise rent, they figure they can rent it for 2k next month by kicking her to the curb. Sucks.
