💡 Thursday Landlord Tip
If you haven’t reviewed your lease since before 2026, assume it needs a check.
Why This Matters
Lease agreements can age out of alignment with current laws faster than most landlords expect — especially in California and the Bay Area.
Rental statutes, local ordinances, and procedural requirements evolve year after year. A lease drafted even a few years ago may contain language that no longer reflects state law, local rent control rules, or notice and deposit procedures.
An annual review of your lease language, notices, and procedures can help prevent:
- Invalid rent increase attempts
- Improper notice delivery
- Security deposit disputes
- Enforceability issues later on
Being proactive now can reduce costly compliance risks down the road.
