How long till we get evicted? We live in California i am asking for my mom which she is the one that wants to know. We have a hard time paying the rent as the rent has increased over the last few months to the point that we have to give 2 payments with a late fee. Well we have not paid one month and we have a land lord saying that they want to evict us and want us to, leave that if we don't leave in one month she is going to the change locks to our home. Now how is that legal? what can i do we can't just move cause that would be more costly but we do pay if not on time just a little late we never let ourselves owe more then one payment.
But to this land lord that is so immature for her telling us to get a job and be lazy what can we do, can i report her for being so mean to us when we try our best to pay the rent and always pay it a little late.
she did give us a 30 day notice to pay or get out and we paid january. now its a couple of days and now she is saying pay february or i will cange the locks
what can be done to stop her form harrasing us? i know one would be move out, but we do pay just not always on time, a week later or a couple of days later.
what can i do legally to stop her from evicting us if we pay ?
How long until we get evicted?
You need to be current on your rent....that's what you agreed to...the landlord has other obligations and needs to count on rent payments on time.

if you are late landlord has legal right to evict. if you are late with rent or don't pay rent the landlord can evict by law. see your lease for more details other then that its calif state law. Sorry about your dilemma.
it takes about 30 days to be evicted depending on how fast landlord can get you into court. If you can avoid the process server some times you can buy an extra week or so. also when you go into court if you say you don't owe the rent to the judge he will set a court date for trial that gives you another 3 weeks or a month. So you might get 2 months of free rent out of the landlord. This is what we call professional tenants that fight the landlords to get more free time. I always hated these tenants but its all part of having your day in court.
The changing the locks issue is illegal until she has a writ you may inform her of that and that you will get into your unit how ever you have to! and call police to have a restraining order placed on her if she doesn't evict you through a court.
Make sure you trash her apt on the way out, lol just kidding really try to get it in decent shape so they don't hit you with damages too. Good luck
If you pay the rent plus the late fees she can't evict you. She can choose not to renew the lease but not evict.
She is NOT allowed to change the locks. she will get in a HUGE world of trouble if she does that. You can contact your local housing authority if it get that far.
For the harassment, really there is nothing to do short of you moving out, like you said. She is a creditor and you owe her the money.
The best thing is to do everything possible to pay the rent on time. Good Luck!
There are (in place) rules for harassment. Go to Court and ask for an interim injunction, estopping your Landlord/Landlady/Friends/Agents/Servant鈥?from interfering with your right to freely enjoy the lawful (and peaceful) occupation of the property. Pay your rent (or whatever you can manage) into the Court's Funds Office and obtain a receipt, weekly or fortnightly. Anybody comes near your home (and right now it is your home) - call the Police and explain that there is an ongoing civil dispute and that you (and your family) are being threatened. In conclusion, write your Landlord(s) - by Recorded Delivery letter - a 'letter before action' and let them know that you are taking legal action, following their conduct.
