Summary
Isleton has no local rent control ordinance. The statewide Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (AB 1482) limits annual rent increases to 5 percent plus local CPI or 10 percent, whichever is lower, for covered units. Just cause eviction required after 12 months tenancy. Single family rentals owned by individuals exempt.
(a) (1) Subject to subdivision (b), an owner of residential real property shall not, over the course of any 12-month period, increase the gross rental rate for a dwelling or a unit more than 5 percent plus the percentage change in the cost of living, or 10 percent, whichever is lower, of the lowest gross rental rate charged for that dwelling or unit at any time during the 12 months prior to the effective date of the increase. In determining the lowest gross rental amount pursuant to this section, any rent discounts, incentives, concessions, or credits offered by the owner of such unit of residential real property and accepted by the tenant shall be excluded. The gross per-month rental rate and any owner-offered discounts, incentives, concessions, or credits shall be separately listed and identified in the lease or rental agreement or any amendments to an existing lease or rental agreement.
(2) If the same tenant remains in occupancy of a unit of residential real property over any 12-month period, the gross rental rate for the unit of residential real property shall not be increased in more than two increments over that 12-month period, subject to the other restrictions of this subdivision governing gross rental rate increase.
(b) For a new tenancy in which no tenant from the prior tenancy remains in lawful possession of the residential real property, the owner may establish the initial rental rate not subject to subdivision (a). Subdivision (a) is only applicable to subsequent increases after that initial rental rate has been established.
Full Breakdown
AB 1482 applies in all California cities lacking stricter local rent control, and Isleton has not adopted any local cap. The statewide rent cap limits increases on covered properties to the lesser of 5 percent plus CPI or 10 percent annually. Just cause eviction rules require that after 12 months of tenancy landlords may only terminate for enumerated at-fault or no-fault reasons with relocation assistance equal to one months rent for no-fault terminations. Exemptions include single family homes and condos owned by individuals (not corporations or LLCs with corporate members) provided the tenant receives proper written notice of exemption, along with new construction less than 15 years old. The law sunsets January 1, 2030. Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act limits what cities can regulate even if they adopt local ordinances.
