The State Legislature is Considering Passage of “Good Cause Eviction” Legislation
Good Cause Eviction would restrict the ability of a landlord to evict a tenant, even in cases where their lease has expired so long as the tenant continued to pay rent. The bill (S.3082/A.5573) would also effectively cap annual rent increases to 3% or 1.5 times the CPI for most rental properties statewide with four units or more, unless the landlord is able to prove before a judge that an increase above that threshold is necessary or reasonable. Complete the Call for Action HERE. Learn more HERE!
