Sacramento County has not enacted local rent control or rent stabilization in unincorporated areas. The City of Sacramento (separate jurisdiction) has its own Tenant Protection and Relief Act. For unincorporated county tenants, California AB 1482 (Tenant Protection Act of 2019), codified at Civil Code 1946.2 and 1947.12, applies. AB 1482 caps annual rent increases at 5 percent plus the regional CPI, or 10 percent, whichever is lower. It also requires just-cause eviction for tenants who have lived in a unit for 12 months or more. Just causes include nonpayment, lease breach, nuisance, and at-fault reasons; no-fault terminations (owner move-in, withdrawal from market, substantial remodel) require relocation assistance equal to one month's rent. Exemptions include single-family homes owned by individuals (not corporations) if proper notice is given, condos, buildings less than 15 years old (rolling), and deed-restricted affordable housing. The law sunsets January 1, 2030 unless extended.
