Thank you for your purchase.

IMPORTANT: The Tenant Protection Act of 2019 imposed statewide rent control and eviction protection for covered properties. Many cities have enacted their own ordinances, some of which have changed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Click here for our latest California rent control chart. If you are terminating a tenancy pursuant to the new statewide law, be sure to use the termination forms specifically designed for those situations (look for "TPA forms" in the downloadable forms folder).

Here you can download current versions of the forms or other materials that come with the book.
