Oakland Rent Control: The 0.8% Rule, Registration Deadlines & What Landlords Must Know (March 2026)

Описание: Oakland landlords: the maximum allowable rent increase for 2026 is 0.8% — set by the Oakland Rent Adjustment Program (RAP). That's the Annual General Adjustment (AGA) for August 1, 2025 through July 31, 2026. It's less than one-seventh of the statewide AB 1482 cap of 6.3%.

In this video we cover:
• The 2026 AGA — what it is, where it comes from, and how to calculate it
• Which properties are covered (the April 1, 2016 and pre-1983 thresholds explained)
• Registration requirements — the March 1 annual deadline and what happens if you miss it
• The April 2025 Business Certificate requirement for rent increase notices
• Banked increase rules — what changed January 1, 2026
• The consequences of getting it wrong: refunds, triple damages, RAP hearings
