Santa Monica Ordinance 2776: Strengthening of the Just Cause Ordinance
May 30, 2024
Welcome to SNS Law Group’s video on Santa Monica Ordinance 2776: Strengthening of the Just Cause Ordinance. In this video, Bijan Shakibkoo, co-founder and managing partner of SNS Law Group, discusses the implications of the Santa Monica ordinance for landlords who own rental property in the city.
The ordinance has strengthened the current just cause eviction protections. This means landlords are now required to have a verifiable intent for evicting a tenant. The just cause eviction laws limit the reasons for which a landlord can evict a tenant. This includes nonpayment of rent, criminal activity, or a clear violation of the lease agreement.
By prohibiting a no cause eviction, or evictions that occur without a reason, a landlord or property owner can instead only evict a tenant with a verifiable intent. These changes are important for landlords to understand before renting out their property.
If you’re a landlord in Santa Monica, these changes could significantly affect how you manage your property. If you have any questions about this ordinance or need legal advice, please feel free to give our office a call. We would love to help.
