FAQ
Renewing a Lease If you do nothing, the lease automatically becomes a month-to-month periodic tenancy (Civil Code Section 1945), but the landlord can potentially terminate upon 30 days' notice (although this termination right of the landlord is limited in some cities – see below).
Under California law, either party can terminate a month-to-month lease agreement. However, when the tenant has been in the property for less than a year, they're required to give at least a 30 days' notice.
A landlord uses a 30-day Notice to Quit (move out) to end a month-to-month tenancy if the tenant has been renting for less than 1 year. A landlord uses a 60-day Notice to Quit if their tenant has been renting for 1 year or more. In many cases, landlords can't cancel a month-to-month tenancy for just any reason.
Rent caps: Under AB 1482, landlords cannot increase rent more than 5% plus the local CPI or 10% in a 12-month period, whichever is lower, even for month-to-month tenants.
Ing to AB-1482, the Tenant Protection Act of 2019, landlords in California are only permitted to increase rent by 5% plus 10% or the annual inflation rate, whichever is lower.
Contra Costa County has implemented rent control and just cause eviction protections in certain areas. These laws: Limit annual rent increases. Protect tenants from arbitrary evictions.
Short-Term Rental Regulations A non-hosted short-term rental may not be rented for more than 90 days in any calendar year. A hosted short-term rental may not be rented for more than 180 days in a calendar year. The maximum number of days a short-term rental may be rented in a calendar year is 180 days.
At a glance: What a landlord cannot do in California in 2024 Landlords can't raise rent more than 10% total or 5% + CPI increase (whichever is lower) over a 12-month period. No-fault evictions are prohibited, so landlords can't evict a tenant without cause.
Section 21 of the Housing Act stipulates that a landlord cannot legally obtain possession of a property in the first 6 months. In the unfortunate event a tenant refused to leave at the end of a 4 month fixed term for instance, this would pose problems by making landlords unable to legally regain possession.
All of Contra Costa County is subject to the rent and eviction regulations for the state of California. But the only city in Contra Costa County to have actual rent control laws is Richmond. This program is aimed at promoting community and neighborhood stability, healthy housing and affordability for Richmond tenants.
