Before you rent your new home, ask "is it rent controlled?" If YES, the rent can't be raised more than the rate set by the Oakland Rent Adjustment Ordinance. Through July 31, 2026, Oakland landlords of covered units are limited to 0.8%! This allows an annual rent increase based on the regional Consumer Price Index (CPI). An owner can increase the rent on a covered unit only once in a 12-month period. EXAMPLE: If your rent when you moved in last year was $2000, it could increase by only $21.60 after your first year. After your second year, it could have raised $ 46.50, for a total rent of $2,068.10 If the answer is NO, they are not Rent Controlled. BEWARE: They won't want to tell you how much they can raise your rent! The Statewide limit (AB 1482) is now 8.8 % ! SAME EXAMPLE: you moved in last year; rent was $2000. They can legally raise your rent by $176, and next year, if it remains the same, $191.49 more! So 2 years from now you could have a rent of $2367.49 So make the smart decision. You want a rent-controlled home, or you might not be able to afford the place you move into after a year or 2. EXAMPLE: Rent-controlled $2,068.10 or Not rent-controlled $2367.49! And the difference in affordability is dramatically more the more years you stay in that non-rent-controlled home so you might have to move every year and get a smaller or less desirable place.
