Most water claims start in the most ordinary places: under sinks and around toilets. A slow drip from a supply line or a small leak by a toilet can lead to severe water damage across several units.

Rocket Companies contends that the plaintiffs failed to plead injury, a qualifying referral, a thing of value, or an agreement, which are essential for their claims under RESPA.

A landlord has a legal duty to make appropriate repairs and to do so promptly once notified. The rules governing landlord entry into a rental unit are stated in California Civil Code Section 1954. This statute says that a landlord may enter only during normal business hours and only for a legitimate reason, which includes repairs, and only after giving 24 hours written notice to the tenant.

Once she paid rent and moved in, she became a month-to-month tenant, regardless of the length of time she stayed in your house. As a month-to-month tenant, she is required to give you a 30-day written notice of termination, and she is responsible for rent during that 30-day period, whether she stayed there or not.

Insult has been added to injury for the estimated 200 people who were displaced by Monday morning's apartment fire in Oakland's Uptown, after their landlord issued them all eviction letters.

What that became, in practice, was closer to psychic warfare. "We both tried to leverage the fact that we're supposed to be friends," Henry said. "I'd use it against him all the time: 'Come on, dude, what are you talking about?' And he'd do the same thing to me." Take, for example, the time Henry and his fiancé fostered a dog without asking Reid first: "I was like, 'He is not going to evict us for having a dog.'"

Is it time to think about rent-to-own homes? After all, 2026 is shaping up to be a chaotic year, with an uncertain economy, political pandemonium roiling every market, and a falling dollar. And in real estate, everyone seems to be hurting. For the first time in over a decade, it's seemingly a buyer's market, with housing stock finally exceeding those looking to make a purchase.

STR income does not behave like traditional rental income; yet, it is often evaluated using tools and assumptions designed for long-term leases. When nightly pricing, seasonality, operational intensity and regulatory exposure enter the equation, the old appraisal playbook starts to break down.
