Hmm..I think the LL who owns in L.A. Rent Control should read the details a bit closer...here ya go (of course I have to post in several sections because this site has a very small character limit per post): LA Rent Control Made Simple More tenants come under Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance [LARSO] than in any other city in California, found in the Los Angeles Municipal Code [LAMC] Sections 151 - 151.21. Many rent control laws are similar, and you can get the details on each law from the Legal Research page of this site. The information on this page is directed only to Los Angeles tenants. The information here is simplified, and therefore technically inaccurate. For those who want to read the actual ordinance and actual regulations, they are on this website for you to read and download for free. What is Rent Control?
Rent control, or rent stabilization, is much more than the 4% maximum increase to which people refer. It is a collection of laws that regulate how much a landlord can raise (or must reduce) the rent, limit the reasons for eviction, and more. Rent control and eviction protections work together, so that the landlord doesn't get around a rent limit by evicting the tenant, instead, or vice versa. Rent control is part of the Los Angeles Municipal Code, the ordinances which specially regulate things within the city. The rights you have living in Los Angeles depend on whether your rental unit is under rent control.
