A recent Redfin Eviction Study found that one out of every 33 Inland Empire renters in San Bernardino County were evicted in 2014 – the ninth-highest rate among large metro urban areas across the country where eviction data is available.

The US Census Bureau 2015 American Community Survey found that almost fifty-nine percent of San Bernardino County renters spent more than 30 percent of their income on rent in 2015. This is what federal agencies and economists refer to as “cost burdened” renters – renters with the burden of over 30 percent of their income going to rent that have higher eviction rates.

There are six California Superior Court locations hearing eviction / Unlawful Detainer cases in San Bernardino County:

SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO SAN BERNARDINO DISTRICT 111 N. Hill St Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 830-0803	SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO SAN BERNARDINO DISTRICT San Bernardino District – Civil Division 247 West Third Street San Bernardino, CA 92415-0210 909-708-8678	SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO BARSTOW DISTRICT 235 E Mt View Ave Barstow, CA 9231 760-718-3734

Eviction cases can often be a complicated minefield for landlords who lose time and lost rent having cases thrown out of court on minor procedural details raised by tenants who become aggressive defending their desire to stay on the property as long as possible rent free.

As with most counties, a San Bernardino County landlord cannot start an eviction as a retaliatory action to get rid of a tenant who, for example complains about what are known as “Mandated repairs” like the air conditioning system not working, or reports habitability issues to a government regulatory agency or they are liable for what are known as landlord retaliation lawsuits which can be very costly.

San Bernardino County has no rent control, so landlords can raise a tenant’s rent as much and as frequently as they want, provided they give proper legal notice of the change in writing. However, as in all of California rent increases of more than 10% during any 12 month period requires 60 days written notice.

San Bernardino County Courts are e-Filing mandated and are required to use a preferred e-Filing vendor to process all court filings. This is an important reason it’s always best to use a qualified Landlord Eviction Attorney to assist you and help you track your progress throughout the entire process.

Each step of the process must be followed to the letter of the law before a court will render an Unlawful Detainer judgement. Landlords cannot evict a tenant, change locks, turn off utilities or change doors on their own to try to deprive the tenant of residency. Only a San Bernardino County Sheriff can take the final step of enforcing the court order locking the tenant out of the rental so you get your property and rental income back.
