I rent an ADU in California, and many of the Tennant rights are waived for it if the primary property is owner occupied, aside from some cities like oakland.
I would not want to rent a separate property in CA as an individual, especially as counties start banning criminal background checks.
Oh how I know it. I know someone who got fucked by the COVID eviction moratorium. 3 years of lost rent on a Bay area house while eating the mortgage, plus 250k property damage.
Judgement proof Tennant mean that comes out of retirement and college funds. Makes me wish criminal charges were viable.
