California Department of Real Estate Landlords' and Tenants' Rights Guide

Table of Contents

You can find the information you need by using the Table of Contents, Index, and Glossary of Terms contained in this guide.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

As the Table of Contents shows, this guide is divided into nine main sections. Each main section is divided into smaller sub-sections. For example, if you seek information about the rental agreement, look under “Rental Agreements and Leases” in the “BEFORE YOU AGREE TO RENT” section.

GLOSSARY

If you just want to know the meaning of a term (such as "eviction" or "holding deposit") look in the Glossary. The glossary gives the meaning of more than 60 terms. Each term is printed in boldface type the first time that it appears in the guide.

The Department of Real Estate hopes that you will locate the information you are looking for in this guide. If you cannot find what you are looking for, call or write to one of the resources listed in “Getting Help from a Third Party".
