“Mom-and-pop” landlords in Los Angeles say they are undergoing severe hardship because of the COVID-19 eviction moratorium, which protects tenants from being evicted when they do not pay rent for pandemic-related reasons.

The moratorium will be in effect through August 2023, or up to 12 months following the end of the city’s local emergency, which was first declared in March 2020 to help tenants with financial hardship.
