Section 6-58.55 of the Alameda Municipal Code requires that landlords provide an initial registration statement for each rental unit, including landlords of units that are subsidized through the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program.
California passed a new landlord-tenant law that will provide additional protections for renters around just cause evictions. The law took effect on April 1, 2024, and requires landlords to have just cause to terminate tenancy after a California tenant has been placed in the unit for 12 months.
If you have lived in the rental unit for less than one year, then you will receive a 30-day notice to quit, which gives you 30 days to move out of the rental unit.
Alameda's City Rent Control Ordinance regulates how much a tenant's rent can be raised annually, protects tenants from eviction unless there is a just-cause reason to do so under the law, provides relocation to tenants, regulates buyout agreements, and prohibits landlord retaliation against tenants.
