What is the Los Angeles County Rent Registry?

The Rent Registry is a new online service portal where property owners can register rental properties, update rental unit information, and pay annual rent registration fees as required by the County’s Rent Stabilization and Tenant Protections Ordinance (RSTPO) and Mobilehome Rent Stabilization and Mobilehome Owner Protections Ordinance (MRSMOPO). The system will also allow property owners and renters to file and submit required documentation, request rent adjustments and passthroughs, and verify coverage under the RSTPO and MRSMOPO.

Why is the County adopting a Rent Registry?

The Rent Registry was established under the County’s Rent Stabilization and Tenant Protections Ordinance and the Mobilehome Rent Stabilization and Mobilehome Owner Protections Ordinance.  The rent registry allows landlords to provide required rental housing information in compliance with the County ordinances, such as changes in tenancy, rental rates, and amenities, as well as pay annual registration fees to administer and enforce the program.

Who is required to register?

Landlords and mobilehome park owners who rent units or mobilehome spaces within unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County are required to register and pay registration fees annually. Some units or properties may be exempt from registration fees and may submit an exemption request through the registry. Examples include owner-occupied units, and units and mobilehome spaces that are exempted from rent stabilization under state and federal law.

Not a landlord, but received a letter to register your property? You may disregard the letter to register your property. Please note, if you ever rent your unit(s) or space(s), you will be required to register within thirty (30) days of the tenancy start date.

What are the current annual registration fees?

Submission Date Registration Fee Late Fee
On or before September 30, 2022 FREE None
On or After October 1, 2022 $90 for Fully Covered Units/Spaces; $30 for Just Cause Only Units 10 percent may be assessed
