Landlord Rental Registration

Step 1.Gather your information

Please make sure to have the Assessor Information Number (AIN) and Year Built for each property you will be registering. Search the Los Angeles County Assessor by address if you need this information.

Step 2.Register your Rental Units

Complete the landlord registration form.

If you need any assistance with the application process, please call (310) 594-7847 to speak with a customer service representative during business hours, 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday.

Step 3.Receive your Rent Registration Certificate

After you submit your information, it will be reviewed for accuracy.  City representatives will contact you if additional information is required.  Once all information is submitted and accurate, your Rent Registration Certificate will be sent to you via email. 

Step 4.Post the Rent Registration Certificate

All Landlords must post in a conspicuous place, or give to each tenant, the Rent Registration Certificate for each rental unit. 

Step 5.Post the Rent Control Ordinance Notice

All landlords must also post the Rent Control Ordinance Notice in a conspicuous location in the common area, at the entry or entries to the building or units, or other similar location or locations as necessary to provide tenants a reasonable opportunity to view the notice, at all properties where a Rent Registration Certificate is required.
