Concord joins other California cities, including Oakland and San Francisco, in adopting tenant anti-harassment protections. https://t.co/OENLf6635U

It's final. Even where rent control doesn't apply, SF landlords violate the law by increasing rents intending to force tenants to vacate.

Woman shocked by $855 rent increase in viral video: "Isn't that illegal?" https://t.co/LxQFIrHCCJ In California, rent controls and the state anti-retaliation law can protect tenants against huge rent increases.

Sadly, this kind of eviction is neither new nor infrequent. But, tenants in rent-controlled jurisdictions whose housing is covered by their local rent ordinances, like Oakland, SF, Berkeley, Emeryville, should know this kind of eviction is not legal.

Oakland can't enforce all laws involving owner move-ins, so it's important for tenants to protect their rights by contacting good tenant lawyers https://t.co/39wZuUraKI via @CurbedSF
