California New Smokefree Housing Law for 2012
The California Smokefree Housing Law (SB 332) went into effect on January 1, 2012 - added Section 1947.5 to the California Civil Code - and gives multifamily property owners and managers the power to prohibit smoking in rental units.
This authroizes a landlord of a residential dwelling to prohibit the smoking of tobacco products on the property, in a dwelling unit, in another interior or exterior area, or on the premises on which the dwelling unit is located.
This new law makes requirements on notices and leases that a landlord who prohibits smoking pursuant to this authority is subject to federal, state, and local requirements governing changes to the terms of a lease or rental agreement for tenants.
California owner/landlords had prior legal authority to prohibit smoking - this new law gives them platform for new programs to enforce smoking bans in multifamily housing communities.
See Public Health Law and Policy (PHLP) website - with information for property owners and managers who are considering adoption of smokefree policies.
City of Pasadena is even more strict with its smokefree housing law for multi-family units 2012.
The City of Pasadena is leading new California trend and has banned smoking in all multi-family units including condominiums and townhouses, and prohibits smoking in all common areas and inside units. See the Pasadena city ordinance at "Reduction of Drifting Tobacco Smoke in Multi-Unit Housing."

Different issues are sometimes overlooked and trip up short sale sellers at Orange County CA real estate.
These issues should be reviewed carefully at the start of the process, so sellers don't get surprised with negative lender response and rejections.
Who Owns the Loan - It's important to determine who owns the notes and deeds of trust (as used in California). If you are dealing with a third party negotiator who works for a lender, you need to confirm name and address of the lender, investor, and separate negotiator. It's also important to find out what authority to negotiate has been granted to the third party negotiator.
Lender's short sale process - Sellers and their agents must find out at the earliest possible time about the specific lender, its negotiator, and its process for considering and approving a short sale.
Buyers Should Make Clean Offers - Lenders and their negotiators like to see clean and easy offers in short sales. Sellers should encourage buyers to clear as many of their contingencies as possible in their offers, so those offers are easy to understand and approve by lender/lienholders.
Incidental fees - Lenders for sellers in short sales don't usually agree to pay much, if any, of the outstanding incidental costs at closing - such as title fees, survey fees, unpaid utility bills, and document delivery fees.
Home and property inspections - Buyers should bite the bullet and get their home inspection completed as soon as possible and not wait until after lender approval of the sale. Buyer hesitation on this can hurt them when inspection eventually turns up something they don’t like. Buyers should get comfortable as soon as possible with the property condition.
Buyer Contingencies - Most of the same buyer contingencies will apply in short sales as in regular equity deals. Buyers will need to make sure they can get their money organized and financing before asking lender for sellers to approve the short sale.
Homeowners association financial condition - About one in four people in California live in communities where there are homeowner association rules and assessments. Some HOAs are in poor financial condition, and short sale sellers need to have this information from the start, including review of financial documents from the HOA, for eventual disclosure to buyers.
Homeowner Association lien claims for unpaid assessments - It's common in short sales in California that the seller is in arrears on HOA dues and assessments. HOAs usually file and record their liens to protect right to recover through sale of the property. Sellers need to find this out early, so it can be presented to the lenders and negotiated.
