Annual rent increases are limited to 5% after inflation over the next 10 years. Landlords must provide a just cause for evicting tenants. Single-family homes or duplexes that are owner-occupied are exempt. California cities that already have rent control laws in place are exempt.
Both parties must agree to the proposed amendments. A lease is a legally binding agreement between a tenant and landlord, therefore it cannot be altered without both parties consent. Typically, a landlord is more likely than a tenant to propose an amendment to the lease.
A tenancy agreement can normally only be changed if both you and your landlord agree. If you both agree, the change should be recorded in writing, either by drawing up a new written document setting out the terms of the tenancy or by amending the existing written tenancy agreement.
According to the Tenant Protection Act of 2019, also known as AB 1482, landlords are allowed annual rent increases of 5% plus the percentage change in the cost of living (Consumer Price Index) per year, up to 10%.
In D.C., data from Apartment List shows that average rents have grown 9% over last year, and hikes range from 12.5 to 14% in suburban areas such as Rockville and Alexandria. There are extreme outliers, too: A dozen local tenants interviewed by WAMU/DCist say their rents have gone up 20% or more over last year.
