City of West Hollywood | Rent Stabilization Division 30-DAY NOTICE OF CHANGE IN TERMS OF TENANCY 2026 - 2027

This form is provided as a convenience to you. The Rent Stabilization Ordinance does not require that you use it. To increase rent legally, you must comply with all applicable local and state laws.

REQUIRED STATEMENTS

West Hollywood Municipal Code §17.28.060(c) requires that a landlord who is increasing rent pursuant to the Annual General Adjustment (AGA) include the following statements in English, Spanish, and Russian with the notice: • that the property is subject to the provisions of the Rent Stabilization Ordinance of the City of West Hollywood; • that a copy of the Ordinance and information about the maximum allowable rent that may be charged for each unit can be obtained from the Rent Stabilization Division; • the Rent Stabilization Division’s phone number; and • “This property is also subject to Chapter 17.52 of the City of West Hollywood Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which includes, but is not limited to, the protections related to eviction and the prohibition against tenant harassment.” (See samples below.) West Hollywood Municipal Code §17.36.070 requires that your notice include a statement that you are “in compliance with all provisions of the West Hollywood Rent Stabilization Ordinance and Regulations.” If you choose to use a form other than this one, you must write this compliance statement somewhere on the form. In addition, California law (Civ. Code § 827) dictates the manner in which rent increase notices must be served. If you do not follow the requirements of California law regarding proper service, you run the risk of having your notice declared invalid by a court.
