I have a 3 unit property in Southern California. Recently I was informed that the police had come to the property looking for the son of one of the tenants. Naturally the other tenants are very concerned about safety as am I. I don’t know what it was about but the police told the other tenants to stay away from him. However, when I asked the mother about it, she just said that he witnessed something and wanted a statement from him. I’m worried she may just be covering up for him. She is very nice and has had good communication however, she has been late on the rent several times. Fortunately she always paid the late fee without having to be prompted or reminded. Another problem is the tenants complain about the high school friends of her kids coming over playing loud music. Basically the mother seems to be a decent tenant but her kids are the main problem. She isn’t home much because she is a single mother and works like crazy to make ends meet. I want to help her out by letting her stay but I don’t know what I can do about the kids. I am also considering not renewing her lease when the year is up because the other 2 tenants are excellent so I would hate to lose them over this. Legally, how can I evict her based upon the above details, if that is even possible?
I just put a completely renovated 3bd 2 bath home in California up for rent online yesterday and got an overwhelming response of inquiries. Now I want to increase the rental price. Can I simply delete the post and put up a new one? Also, can I tell the first group of inquirers that we have increased the price? Most importantly I am wondering if it is legal for me to do that. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi everyone! I just bought my first 3 unit property which came with one tenant. This tenant has a 1 year lease which will end in June 2018.

Does anyone know if I can draw up a new lease with them as the new landlord or do I have to honor their current lease with the former landlord?
