Rent & eviction protection

Is 10620 N Balboa 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 1970
2 or more units
63 units

501
Zoning
LAR3
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 63-unit residential building at 10620 N Balboa Blvd in Granada Hills, owned by Balboa Properties LLC, was constructed in 1970 and has experienced numerous maintenance and safety-related incidents over the past several years. The property has generated a significant number of service requests to the city's 311 system, totaling 171 calls in the past seven years, with 10 building safety inspections conducted during the same period. The most recent service requests from 2025 show recurring issues with illegal dumping and bulky items, with four separate bulky items removal requests and one illegal dumping incident being reported and resolved within two months of each other. Additionally, there have been two streetlight issues reported and resolved between March and May 2025, and a graffiti removal request that was addressed promptly within two days. While all recent service requests have been closed, the frequency of maintenance issues and the need for multiple bulky item removals and streetlight repairs suggest ongoing challenges with property upkeep and infrastructure maintenance. The building's record of 171 service requests over seven years indicates a relatively high volume of reported issues, though it's worth noting that not all of these calls may be directly related to building safety or livability concerns.

Risk rating

How 10620 N Balboa 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

LA County rarely opens code cases here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. LA County has opened cases here before and is statistically likely to again.
