Rent & eviction protection

Is 10517 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 1949
2 or more units
2 units

200
Zoning
LAR2
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
5% + CPI, max 10%
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 10517 N Laurel Canyon Blvd in Pacoima, built in 1949 and currently owned by Francisco R and Maria L Rivera, has a documented history of building and safety concerns from 2014, particularly involving unauthorized construction activities. During that year, there were two separate incidents of construction done without proper permits or inspections, both categorized as Priority 2 issues, and two code enforcement cases were opened, though all these cases were resolved within a relatively short timeframe. More recently, in 2026, there have been several municipal service requests, primarily related to street maintenance and public infrastructure, including multiple streetlight repair requests (with at least one still in progress as of October 2025), a street pavement issue, and two item pickup requests. The relatively high number of 67 service requests in the past seven years suggests active engagement with municipal services, though it's worth noting that many of these recent requests pertain to external infrastructure rather than the building itself. The property has no recorded safety violations or habitability issues in recent years, and the building's code enforcement history from 2014 indicates prompt resolution of those particular concerns.

Risk rating

How 10517 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.
