Los Angeles Rent Control. The Los Angeles Rent Control laws were established to create a fair housing environment for the tenants. One of which is discrimination. Federal, State, and Local laws prohibit housing discrimination based on Race, Color, Sex, Religion, National Origin, Ancestry, Mental Disability, Physical Disability (HIV & AIDS included), Familial Status (Children), Marital Status, Age, Sexual Orientation, Source of Income, Student Status or other Arbitrary Reasons. Basically in California virtually every unit of housing for rent, lease or for sale is covered under the fair housing laws. The other area of rent control is also the stabilization of rent so that it does not go up more than specific amounts each year, removing tenants without just cause or without relocating them or providing relocation money.
