RE: A Peek Into the California Real Estate Bubble

in LeoFinance3 years ago

The maximum amount of people who can live in this place is five, which is fine most of the time since my husband lives in a separate household. However, when he comes and visits, it gets uncomfortable to know that you have too many people living in a home and run the risk of getting reported for too many people living in one place.

What would be the consequences for being reported on?

It depends on who reports what to who.

The rules state that properties can be inhabited by 2 people per room, plus one extra person. I'm not sure if it's a law or guideline or exactly what.

I do know that if your neighbors complain to your HOA - who are not lawmakers, but rule enforcers, that there are too many people in your unit, you can face fines or even eviction - even if you own the property.

As far as children are concerned, too many people in the home make your children technically homeless - and if a spiteful neighbor calls Child Protection Services or such - you may have problems that way.

From my personal experience, this is very rare. Unless you are a complete nuisance people leave you alone. I however didn't want to take my chances.
