The following facts should be emphasized. Plaintiffs purchased a 30-unit apartment building on Ocean Front Walk in Venice, California, on 18 May 1977. They retained the resident manager who had been there 30 years. The following day a letter was sent to each tenant announcing substantial rent increases beginning 1 July.1 The letter also stated the new owners would immediately undertake extensive refurbishment of the common areas in the buildings. Moreover, tenants were advised to inform the manager of problems and were provided with alternative phone numbers in case the manager was unavailable or emergencies arose.2
