Los Angeles Residential Rent Increase Deadline: Secure Your Investment Before June 30th

Calling all Los Angeles residential property owners and investors! The clock is ticking on a critical window of opportunity to adjust your rental rates under the current Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO). Don't miss this chance to maximize your returns and protect your investment from future uncertainties.


The Bottom Line:

  • Rent Increase Window Closing: After a prolonged freeze, you can now implement rent increases on your RSO-covered residential properties—but only until June 30, 2024.
  • Maximize Your Cash Flow: Secure a potential 6% increase by taking advantage of the allowable 4% general adjustment, plus an additional 1% each for gas and electric services (if applicable).
  • Future Uncertainties Loom: The Los Angeles City Council is actively considering stricter rent control measures. Acting now allows you to lock in rent adjustments before any potential limitations come into effect.


Why This Directly Impacts Your Investment:

Offset Rising Expenses: As a residential property owner, you're all too familiar with rising costs - insurance premiums, property taxes, maintenance, and more. This rent increase window provides a vital opportunity to offset these expenses and maintain healthy profit margins.

Safeguard Your Returns: Failing to act now could leave significant money on the table, especially if tighter rent control policies are implemented in the future.

Long-Term Value Protection: Consistent rent increases are crucial for maximizing the long-term value and appreciation potential of your residential real estate investments.


Time is of the Essence - Take Action Now!

  1. Assess Your Maximum Increase: Calculate the highest allowable rent increase for each of your RSO-covered units based on the current guidelines.
  2. Draft Legally Sound Notices: Prepare rent increase notices that comply with all state and local requirements, ensuring proper notification for your tenants.
  3. Send Notices Immediately: Don't delay! Mail your rent increase notices promptly to implement the increases within the current window.
