Are there restrictions on how much I can charge for rent on my condo unit?

Yes, the amount of rent you can charge tenants for a condo unit in California is subject to restrictions. These restrictions are mainly governed by California state laws and local ordinances, depending on where you are located. Under California state law, there is no limit to the amount of rent a landlord can charge for a condo unit. However, it is important to review any applicable local ordinances in the city or municipality you are renting your condo in. Many cities in California have local rent control ordinances that limit how much Landlords can charge for rent in a calendar year. If you are unsure whether a local rent ordinance applies to your condo, you should check with your local city government office. In addition, California has rules regarding how much a landlord can raise the rent on a condo unit each year. Generally, a landlord cannot increase the rent on a condo by more than 10% (plus any applicable local ordinances) within a 12-month period. For example, if the current rent on your condo is $1,200 per month, you can only increase the rent to $1,320 for the next 12-month period. Finally, it is important to be aware that California does not allow “no cause” evictions, meaning that landlords must have a legitimate reason to evict tenants from their condo unit. If you do decide to increase the rent on your condo unit, make sure to follow all applicable local and state laws to avoid any potential legal issues.
