Rent & eviction protection

Is 5332 N Laurel Canyon Blvd 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 1955
2 or more units
2 units

1210
Zoning
LAC2
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 two-unit residential property at 5332 N Laurel Canyon Blvd in Valley Village, built in 1955 and currently owned by Craig Hartzheim Trust, has experienced several notable incidents over the past approximately seven years that may impact resident quality of life. The building has generated 41 service requests through the MyLA311 system during this period, with a particularly concerning pattern of graffiti-related issues - five separate incidents of graffiti removal requests have been logged between 2024 and 2026, though one request from 2025 was cancelled. Additionally, there has been one request for illegal dumping item pickup in March 2026, and one pending request regarding a homeless encampment from April 2024. The property has undergone three building safety inspections in the past seven years, though the records do not specify any concerning findings from these inspections. The frequency of service requests, particularly regarding graffiti and unauthorized dumping, suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining the building's immediate surroundings, though it's important to note that many service requests were resolved promptly, often within 24 to 30 days.

Risk rating

How 5332 N Laurel Canyon Blvd'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.
