Rent & eviction protection

Is 12843 W Kling St 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 1978
2 or more units
15 units

500
Zoning
LARD1.5
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.

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 Kling Street Townhome Apartments, a 15-unit residential complex built in 1978, is located in Studio City and has been registered under its current ownership name, Kling Street Townhome Apartments. Over the past seven years, the building has experienced a total of 80 service requests through the MyLA311 system, with four building safety inspections conducted during the same period. The most recent data from 2024-2026 indicates a pattern of service requests primarily related to bulky item removal, with five such requests recorded between January 2025 and May 2026, including three instances in March 2025 alone. There was also one recent information-only request in May 2026 that was resolved the same day. While the frequency of service requests might suggest active maintenance and management responsiveness, the nature of these requests has largely been routine and non-emergency in nature, primarily dealing with waste removal. It's worth noting that the building's official inspection record shows only four safety inspections in the past seven years, though this alone does not provide a complete picture of the building's overall safety compliance status.

Risk rating

How 12843 W Kling St'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

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.
