Rent & eviction protection

Is 5065 N Cartwright Ave rent-stabilized?

The Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO) caps annual rent increases and requires a legal reason to evict for most rental units first built on or before October 1, 1978. Here's how this building scores on the signals that usually point to coverage.

Built on/before Oct 1, 1978
Built 1957
2 or more units
5 units

500
Zoning
LAR2
Likely covered by the RSO. Building age and unit count suggest most units fall under LA's Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which limits yearly rent increases and requires just cause to evict.

Based on LA County Assessor records. Coverage also extends to condos, townhomes, duplexes, and units attached to commercial buildings. Not legal advice — confirm with the LA Housing Department.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1957
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

This five-unit residential building, located at 5065 N Cartwright Ave in North Hollywood, was constructed in 1957 and is currently owned by Sherwood Properties. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of 30 service requests through the MyLA311 system, with the most recent activity prominently featuring item pickup services. In 2026 alone, there were three item pickup requests in May (including one that was cancelled), plus two related service requests from 2025 for item pickups, including one for illegal dumping. The building's service request history shows a clustering of item pickup needs, particularly in 2025-2026, while also indicating some instances of cancelled requests, such as for service not completed in February 2026. It's worth noting that the pattern of item pickup requests suggests ongoing management of waste disposal or maintenance issues, though the exact nature and frequency of such needs over time is difficult to ascertain from the provided data alone.

Risk rating

How 5065 N Cartwright Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of LA County code enforcement data — code enforcement cases, building & safety requests, foreclosure registrations, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that LA County will open a code enforcement case at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

LA County rarely opens code cases here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. LA County has opened cases here before and is statistically likely to again.
