The following information and resources are provided as a public service and do not constitute nor replace the advice of a legal professional.
In general, our historic duplexes and apartments in Miracle Mile (pre-1978) fall under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO), commonly called “rent control,” which governs rent increases, evictions, and cash-for-keys offers. Our newer apartments do not fall under the RSO. Confirm RSO status at zimas.lacity.org. (Click “housing” on left column menu.)
