( I live in SF) her rent was probably really low, too, because of rent control. She’d probably been there a very long time and was paying pennies on the dollar.

Not her “fault.”

But another horrible result of rent control is, people get evicted, like for Ellis Act, because landlords can’t raise their rent hardly at all.

Is there any evidence to suggest that her eviction had a direct correlation to her death?

A life estate is a less than freehold interest in real property based a measuring life. It is not a leasehold estate.

If the lady had a life estate interest, the question becomes whose life was the measuring life? She would have the right to occupy the property until the death of the person whose life was the measuring life.

For example, I could grant my stepson a life estate in a house I own for as long as my husband lives. During my husband’s lifetime, my stepson would have use of the property. Upon my husband’s death, the life estate ends and the property reverts back to me.

All of which probably has no relevance to the instant case because none of it would be binding on a third party.

Exercising a lawful right is not abuse. Nor is it abuse because you don’t like it

SO you support government controls of the market place, setting limitations on the owners while benefiting the renter. Either that or you have no idea what is happening in SF.

Mh subleasing is not a government control. It stems from the right of property alienability.
