How to Calculate Your Rent Increase

Step 1: Find Your Rate
  • LA RSO Units: 4%
  • LA Non-RSO: 8.8%
  • Orange County: 8.8%
  • Other Counties: 8%
Step 2: Calculate

Increase = Current Rent × Rate
New Rent = Current Rent + Increase

Example Calculation:

Current Rent: $2,000 | Rate: 4% (Los Angeles RSO)
Increase: $2,000 × 0.04 = $80
New Maximum Rent: $2,000 + $80 = $2,080
