Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

Landlords get more time to register

The law gives housing providers more time to file registration forms tied to the rent control database. Deadlines that were 90 days are now 180 days. A 91-day deadline is now 181 days. These changes are temporary and end 225 days after the act starts.

One-time rent history for exempt units

If you own an exempt rental unit, you must report rent history at registration. List the current monthly rent for each unit. Also list the rent charged for each of the two prior calendar years. This is one-time at registration; no ongoing or annual reports. This requirement is temporary and ends 225 days after the act starts.

Temporary timeline for these housing rules

The act starts after mayoral approval and a 30-day congressional review. The act ends 225 days after it starts. This sets timing for the temporary housing rules.
