CHANGES COMING TO CHULA VISTA RENTALS

The City of Chula Vista recently passed the Tenant Protection Ordinance (TPO) affecting both Tenants and Landlords beginning March 1, 2023.
The TPO, in general, gives tenants of multi-family/multi-unit properties additional protections from landlord harassment and no-fault lease terminations/evictions.  These protections include limitations on landlords to terminate leases and relocation assistance and/or credited to tenants upon notice of termination for allowable no-fault reasons.  The TPO also defines harassment and stipulates fines and punishments for offending landlords.
The TPO by default applies to ALL properties, however, single family homes NOT owned by a corporation can be exempted.
