California requires landlords to include or attach an AB 1482 disclosure in every covered lease and lease renewal, informing tenants of the rent cap and just-cause protections in plain statutory language.
Civil Code 1946.2(f) requires a specific written notice in twelve-point font informing tenants that AB 1482 limits rent increases and requires just cause for eviction. For exempt properties, the landlord must instead include the statutory exemption notice quoting the exact statutory language; otherwise, exemption is forfeited. Unincorporated SBC has not added a local notice requirement, so the state form is sufficient. Tenants who never received the notice may have stronger defenses against rent increases above the cap or no-fault terminations.
Omitting the AB 1482 notice or using non-statutory language for an exemption disclosure forfeits the landlord's exemption claim and creates tenant defenses in eviction.
