SB155 regulates evictions in Hawaii, prohibiting no-cause evictions and setting criteria for no-fault evictions.
SB155 amends Hawaii's eviction laws to protect tenants from arbitrary displacement. It prohibits landlords from terminating tenancies without cause and establishes specific criteria for no-fault evictions. Landlords can initiate no-fault evictions only under certain conditions, such as when they plan to occupy the unit themselves, make substantial repairs, or sell the property. The bill also mandates that landlords offer relocation assistance or waive the final month's rent when proceeding with a no-fault eviction.
