FAQ
The new California law puts a statewide ceiling on rent hikes each year. So if inflation was 4% in your city last year, the maximum increase would be 9% for your unit. This provides an important check against runaway rent spikes every time a lease is renewed.
Any rental unit built after 2/1/95, as well as houses and condos, are not under rent restrictions. Even where these rent restrictions do not apply, eviction protections do continue.
Specifically, HOAs can't enforce rental caps that limit rentals to less than 25% of the units, nor can they impose upfront fees to lease a property. By limiting rental caps, AB 3182 aims to increase the availability of rental housing in California.
Just Cause Protections California's Tenant Protection Act of 2019 requires landlords to provide “just cause” for evictions after a tenant has lived in a rental property for 12 months or longer.
A wave of new legislation strengthening tenant protections in California goes into effect in 2024. These laws limit evictions, cap security deposits, extend rent control, and make it easier for tenants to fight back against landlords trying to skirt housing regulations.
The State of California Department of Consumer Affairs can help with questions or complaints regarding landlord/tenant relationships, including repair issues, safety violations, and Health and Safety Code violations. For further information, call (800) 952-5210, or visit the website at .dca.ca.
How to write a California lease agreement Identify the parties involved. Clearly state the names and contact information of both the landlord and the prospective tenant. Define the rental property. Specify the lease term. Outline rent and payment terms. Include important provisions. Comply with legal requirements.
An HOA has the authority to enforce the rules and regulations of the community using the community rules, or “bylaws and covenants.” These rules are considered “agreed upon” since homeowners approve them through board-elected representatives.
What are unenforceable HOA rules? Keep you out of court. Hush up litigation. Discriminate indiscriminately. Enter your home without cause or notice. String you out on the (clothes)line. Fine you for fun. Change rules on the fly. Demand you take down your dish.
