Rent & eviction protection

Is 5425 N Denny 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

Zoning
LACM
Likely not RSO-covered. Buildings first occupied after October 1, 1978 are generally exempt from the LA RSO — but the statewide Tenant Protection Act below may still apply.

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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 2016
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Likely exempt from AB 1482. Housing with a certificate of occupancy issued within the previous 15 years is exempt from the state rent cap and just-cause rules.

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 8-unit residential building at 5425 N Denny Ave in North Hollywood, owned by Dsd Management Llc, was constructed in 2016 and has maintained a generally stable maintenance record over the past seven years. The property has undergone 71 building safety inspections, with only one recorded code enforcement violation—an unusually low number for the period. There have been three pro-active code enforcement cases (2014, 2017, and 2022), though all were resolved on the same day they were opened. The building's history of 311 service requests shows a total of 43 incidents, primarily consisting of routine maintenance issues including landscape maintenance, item pickups, and several miscellaneous complaints. Notable incidents include a period of illegal dumping in September 2025, a concerning abandoned building issue in April 2014 (resolved within one day), and various complaints regarding parking and trash in 2014-2015. While the frequency of complaints has decreased in recent years, with only two service requests recorded in 2026 (landscape maintenance and item pickups), the building's nine-year-old age suggests it is reaching the typical mid-life maintenance phase where regular upkeep becomes increasingly important.

Risk rating

How 5425 N Denny 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.
