The LA County Board of Supervisors voted to approve lowering annual rent increases from 4% to 3% on most rent-controlled units in unincorporated parts of the county. The change, which goes into effect Jan. 1, 2025, exempts small landlords (those owning 10 or fewer units) as well as landlords of luxury units. This change to the rent cap will provide much needed relief for LA County tenants already struggling to pay for basic necessities. ACCE leaders are now working hard to bring the same relief to LA City renters.
