Statewide Rent Control and it's Effect on You
Patti Widget Joins Us to Give an Update on the CA Tenant Protection Act (A.B. 1482)
The Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (“TPA”), also known as Assembly Bill 1482, is the state law that imposes both Rent Control and Just Cause Eviction protections absent a local ordinance that provides these protections. The TPA imposes annual limitations on rent increases, the payment of relocation fees, and just-cause eviction rules for rental properties covered under it.
The TPA is generally applicable to most multifamily rental properties constructed more than fifteen years ago with few exceptions for duplexes where the owner is one of the occupants. In certain circumstances, the TPA applies to single-family residences owned by corporate owners or in cases where owners FAIL to inform renters their single-family property is NOT subject to the TPA.
During 2013, the Legislature also passed Senate Bill 567, which imposes even greater restrictions on so-called, “no-fault” evictions for owner move-in, substantial remodel, or removal of a property from the rental market. Since then, further restrictions have been imposed on security deposits, habitability requirements and more.
DISCUSSION TOPICS INCLUDE:
- Which rental properties are covered under the TPA? How much can YOU increase rent this year?
- What’s changed since passage of the TPA? Can you still move into your own property and how much will this cost? Under what conditions can you substantially remodel your property?
- How are tenants being protected from “no fault” evictions for owner move-in or substantial remodel? How much do YOU have to pay in relocation fees to get them out?
- How can YOU evict your tenant for cause…learn your options and develop your strategy.
- What? Are ovens and refrigerators now required to meet habitability standards?
- What are the new requirements for security deposits? One or two months? And, what about taking deductions for damages – how many photographs do you need and when?
