Tenants Face Eviction in Richmond before City Votes on Measure L
Over 100 tenants of the Creekview condominium complex at 3535 El Portal Drive have 60 days to find a new home.
They are being forced to move out as a result of a mass eviction by the complex owner, PMI Property, a Beverly Hills investment company.
PMI gave tenants until October 15 to vacate the property so the apartments can be renovated due to extensive mold damage.
But tenant Eric Hattrup believes Richmond’s November ballot Measure L, which would limit evictions and impose rent control, is the other reason he and other tenants are being thrown out now.
