Shared housing

Renters, landlords and in-law units

Oakland has a lot of duplexes, fourplexes and backyard units. Landlords often book a rekey between tenants for every door at once, which keeps it to one service call.

Tenants should check the lease before changing a lock. Most leases ask for a copy of the new key to go to the owner.
