Has anyone else had problems with bed bugs in furniture bought at Casa Linda in Santa Ana CA?

Q. I bought a new box springs for my daughter, at Casa Linda in Santa Ana CA, and she started getting bites as soon as we got it. We couldn't believe that there could be bedbugs in brand new furniture. At first we assumed they were mosquito bites, but finally (a couple of months later) we took a good look, and we found that the box springs was infested. Anybody else in Orange County had this problem with this furniture store?

A. That's so bad, sorry to hear that. I think you need to change this box spring, I can not believe that. And disinfect your bedroom. Then buy new and safe bedding sets. Here is a webstore on amazon, it has safe and high quality bedding sets, very prety and cozy. Hope can help you.http://www.victoriasdeco.com/category/29206420821/1/Bedroom.htm


Where is best to move in Orange County, CA?
Q. I am moving from NY to California after my birthday in late September. I am looking for somewhere clean and safe walking/skateboarding distance from the beach with good surf (3-5ft). I'd really like to be able to take buses to a nearby cultural city center with a good vibe music/art/shopping/restaurants/clubs and plenty of young adults. I am looking for somewhere that is also close to a local college without very selective admissions/affordable. I would rather be closer to the beach than a city. Anyone have some good advice as to where in California I should set my sights on?

A. Aliso Viejo, Laguna Niguel, Laguna beach, San Clemente.

be prepare $1400 for one bedroom apt.


What to do about noisy neighbors when the landlord will not get involved?
Q. My husband and I live in a small apartment building. Last year or so a white trash family moved in upstairs. They have no jobs, just living off welfare, child support, unemployment and state disability.

They act like they are the only family in this small 4 unit building and they rule the roost. They do not respect the assigned parking and park in our spot when ever we leave for more than 5 minutes. The complex laundry room has set hours of 8am to 9:30pm because it connects to the master bedrooms of the 2 lower units. They do their laundry at 4am! It wakes everyone on the bottom floor up!

To top off the rest of their selfish behavior they do not respect the 10pm quiet time. They fight and throw things, have sex loudly like porn stars so the whole world hears them(including their own kid!) and slam their doors to make the walls in our unit shake and knock pictures down.

The landlord has been called almost weekly sometimes daily for these complaints. He ASKS them if they are making any noise instead of reminding them of the rules. Of course when asked they say they are asleep by 10pm but this is utter bull as they wake us up at all hours with their noise.

The landlord has been getting calls from the other 3 families about them for over a year but refuses to do ANYTHING! The police are called on a weekly basis by everyone in the building and half the time they do not even show up.

Is there some way I can help the landlord realize he needs to get rid of these hicks? Is there some law I can mention to the landlord or a government service I can notify? We live in Orange County, California.
When they first moved in we did try to be polite and friendly. That ended when I asked if they could keep the noise down at 2am and the BF said "Shut the F*** up!"

Not only are the adults trash the kid is a sexual deviant that is exposing himself to the little girls in the building, defecating in the bushes outside our door and playing with himself in the laundry room! He is 11!

A. In the state of California if a tenant is regularly making so much noise so as to disturb other tenants, this can be grounds for eviction. The premise being that every tenant has a right to peaceful enjoyment of one's premises. At issue is getting the landlord to enforce this right and take action against a tenant who is being too noisy. The landlord would need to follow standard eviction procedures (if a tenant has a lease, the landlord would need to notify the tenant in writing that his offending conduct needs to stop prior to actually filing for eviction) and would need to show evidence in court that the tenant has been bothering others with his noise.

If a tenant is constantly being disturbed by other tenants, and the landlord does not take action, a tenant has grounds for terminating the lease and moving out. The tenant must follow the procedure in California Civil Code 1492, which requires the tenant to notify the landlord of problems (lawyers recommend sending a letter). If the problem is not corrected within a reasonable period of time, the tenant may choose to move elsewhere.

Please note the legal difference between "terminating" a lease and "breaking" a lease. You would be terminating your lease regardless of whether it is a month to month tenancy or longer. You would not be breaking it and therefore would not be subject to penalties.

You may also have grounds to go after the landlord for punitive damages in the event that you have no choice to but move. This would include moving costs etc. I am not saying that you would get these but at the very least you would not be sued for breaking your lease.

Here are some contacts you can get in touch with for support:


If you have been dealing with an agent of the landlord, such as a property manager, you may want to directly contact the owner of the rental unit. The name, address and telephone number of the owner and the property manager, or the person who is authorized to receive legal notices for the owner, must be written in your rental agreement (or lease) or posted conspicuously in the building. You can also contact your County Assessor's Office for this information.

�Local housing agency. See the City and County Government listings in the white pages of the phone book.
�Local district attorney's office. See the County Government listings in the white pages of the phone book.
�City or county rent control board. See the City and County Government listings in the white pages of the phone book.

Moving to Garden Grove, California?
Q. I currently live in NY and just graduated from a community college. I'm moving to Garden Grove this summer. I applied to CSU Long Beach, Fullerton for my engineering major but they didn't take any more application, even for the year 2012. CSU Northridge admitted me, but I don't want to transfer there because it's far away from Garden Grove. My plan is to spend a year working while waiting to be a CA resident. I can't afford non-resident tuition. I'm wondering that after I get residency and ready for college, will I be able to apply to any CSU school since they all say close for applications?
Another question, what is the range of renting a 2 BR apartment/townhouse?
Serious answers would be appreciated!

A. No, the chances of applying does not go up if you become a resident. The colleges are actually more interested in out of state students so they can make more money off of them. Why are you so set on Garden Grove if you don't even have a place set up? You are moving to a city where you have no plans, no concept of cost of living and I assume, no job lined up? The facts of California right now is that there are virtually no jobs (especially ones to live off of) and just no opportunities. How were you planning on paying for ANY apartment right now, let alone a two bedroom. Apartments in most of Southern California (Orange County to L.A. area) start at about 1200 in an OK area and only go up from there. A decent two bedroom would start anywhere from 1500 and up. How are you planning on supporting yourself on minimum wage? 8 dollars an hour will barely allow you to eat and have a car, so you will be homeless. Jobs are near impossible to find right now, even minimum wage ones, so if you have zero concept or plan then do not bother. You will be homeless and begging to go back home.
