Understanding the Legal Framework

California Civil Code § 1941.1: This law establishes the landlord’s obligation to maintain a rental property in a habitable condition, ensuring that basic amenities such as heating, plumbing, and electrical systems are functional and safe.
The California Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482): This law provides statewide protections for tenants, including limits on rent increases and just cause eviction requirements.
The Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance: This local law regulates rent increases and provides additional tenant protections for residents in rent-stabilized units within the city of Los Angeles.
