Rent & eviction protection

Is 4532 N Hazeltine Ave rent-stabilized?

The Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) caps annual rent increases and requires a legal reason to evict for most rental units first built on or before October 1, 1978. Here's how this building scores on the signals that usually point to coverage.

Built on/before Oct 1, 1978
Built 1951
2 or more units
23 units

501
Zoning
LAR3
Likely covered by the RSO. Building age and unit count suggest most units fall under LA's Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which limits yearly rent increases and requires just cause to evict.

Based on LA County Assessor records. Coverage also extends to condos, townhomes, duplexes, and units attached to commercial buildings. Not legal advice — confirm with the LA Housing Department.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Annual rent increase cap

Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The 23-unit residential building at 4532 N Hazeltine Ave in Sherman Oaks, constructed in 1951 and currently owned by 4540 Hazeltine LLC, has experienced notable activity over the past seven years. The property has generated a total of 66 service requests through MyLA311 and has undergone 15 building safety inspections during this period. The most recent cluster of events occurred in early 2026, with six consecutive service requests between January and April 2026 specifically related to illegal dumping and item pickup matters, suggesting ongoing challenges with waste management and proper disposal protocols in and around the property. These recent service requests represent a significant portion of the building's total service calls over the past seven years, indicating a recurring issue that may affect resident quality of life. While the building has been regularly inspected for safety compliance, the pattern of service requests, particularly in 2026, warrants attention to the property's waste management practices and the potential impact on resident experience.

Risk rating

How 4532 N Hazeltine Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of LA County code enforcement data — code enforcement cases, building & safety requests, foreclosure registrations, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that LA County will open a code enforcement case at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

LA County rarely opens code cases here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. LA County has opened cases here before and is statistically likely to again.
