Starting August 1, 2024, and lasting until July 31, 2025, the rent increase limits set by AB 1482 (The California Tenant Protection Act) will apply to properties covered by the law.

The maximum rent increase is calculated by adding 5% to the local Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the area where the property is located. Rent increases are allowed only twice within a 12-month period for continuously occupied units, as long as the total increase doesn't exceed the maximum limit.

Below are the maximum rent increase figures. If the property is not in one of the listed urban areas, use the California CPI to determine the increase. The law limits annual rent increases to the lower of either 5% plus the local CPI or 10%. The CPI is a measure of inflation.
