Rent & eviction protection

Is 8100 N De Garmo 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 1944

400
Zoning
LARD2
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 property at 8100 N De Garmo Ave in Sun Valley is a four-unit building constructed in 1944 and currently owned by Gema Sanchez Trust. The building has experienced several significant events over the past seven years, most notably a cluster of four pro-active code enforcement cases in May 2021, though all were closed on the same day they were opened. The building's maintenance history shows some recent positive activity, including a completed re-roofing project in October 2023 that meets current fire safety and Cool Roof requirements, and plans for new accessory dwelling units and garage demolition in 2025-2026. The property has generated a substantial number of service requests through MyLA311, with 121 requests in the past seven years, primarily focused on illegal dumping (with four recent reports in March-May 2026) and one graffiti removal request in March 2026. The building's official record shows minimal permit activity, with only one building permit valued at $7,000 issued in the past seven years, though this may not fully capture all recent improvements given the permits submitted in 2025-2026.

Risk rating

How 8100 N De Garmo 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.
