In response to the ongoing fire emergency in the Los Angeles region, the California Apartment Association has launched a Wildfire Resources Page to serve as a one-stop shop for rental housing providers. This page offers news, compliance information, and resources landlords need to navigate this crisis while supporting their tenants and the broader community.
The Palisades, Eaton, Kenneth, and Hurst fires have devastated areas across Los Angeles County. Recognizing the vital role rental housing providers play in the recovery process, CAA’s Wildfire Resource Page provides:
- Compliance guidance: Explanations of California’s anti-price gouging law, which limits rent increases to no more than 10% after an emergency has been declared, and local rules impacting landlords.
- Latest news: Updates on government actions, including Gov. Gavin Newsom’s extension of rent-gouging protections through March 8, 2025.
- Support for tenants: Resources to help displaced residents access temporary housing and other forms of assistance.
- Industry updates: Information on efforts by the multifamily housing industry to aid recovery and rebuild communities.
The Wildfire Resource Page is designed as a living document, continually updated as new information surfaces. CAA aims to ensure landlords stay informed about their obligations while providing support to tenants affected by the fires.
