This bulletin was sent to me by The Brennan Law Firm and was originally published by The Apartment Association of Greater Los Angeles The City of Los Angeles has confirmed the allowable rent adjustment for rent-controlled units covered by the Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO). This applies to most residential properties built on or before October 1, 1978, and located within Los Angeles city limits.
For the period covering July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026, the following adjustments are permitted:
* Base rent increase: 3.0%
* An additional 1% for each of the electrical and/or gas utilities if the housing provider pays for either or both the utilities on behalf of tenants.
Under California law, landlords must issue written notice at least 30 days in advance for any rent increase under 10%.
Note From AAGLA: Although this allowable rent increase has been published on the Los Angeles Housing Department website, it may not be entirely final or made permanent. We believe that the City of Los Angeles’ Housing and Homelessness Committee will meet to discuss modifications to the existing RSO rent increase formula, which may cause housing providers to have to “walk-back” noticed increases. We will keep our members appraised of the latest developments.
