Rent & eviction protection

Is 9216 N Van Nuys 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 1978
2 or more units
26 units

500
Zoning
LARA
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 26-unit residential building at 9216 N Van Nuys Blvd in Panorama City, currently owned by Vwa LLC, was constructed in 1978 and has experienced several notable developments in recent years. Most significantly, a re-roofing project was issued in June 2025, demonstrating proactive maintenance in compliance with Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone requirements, including the installation of Class A or B roof covering material and a Cool Roof Product as mandated by current building codes. The property has generated a considerable number of service requests through the MyLA311 system, with 162 requests recorded over the past seven years, though the majority of recent requests in 2025 are related to illegal dumping and bulky item pickups rather than building safety or maintenance issues. The building's history shows attention to compliance matters, with one pro-active code enforcement case opened and closed in May 2019, and a relatively low number of building permits (4) issued in the past seven years totaling $42,000 in valuation. While the substantial number of 311 service requests might warrant attention, it's worth noting that many of these recent requests have been successfully resolved within short timeframes, typically within days of being reported.

Risk rating

How 9216 N Van Nuys 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.
