You Must Register and Report Your Rents No Later Than February 28, 2018
Registration season for all multi-housing and properties subject to the Rent Stabilization Ordinance in the City of Los Angeles (RSO) began in January. This year, in addition to paying the annual registration fee, you must also provide the rent amount for every rental unit subject to the RSO. The fee and registration information is now mandatory and is due no later than February 28, 2018. The Rent Registry is a two-page, double-sided form that is included in with your annual RSO/SCEP bill. Alternatively, you may complete the form via the online Rent Registry portal at registerLArent.org. The Rent Registry Portal uses the same login and password for landlords who pay their registration fees online using the Billing Portal at hcidla.billing.lacity. Once completed online, the Annual Statement of Registration (Certificate) is made available to download in the Billing Portal. The RSO allows a landlord to pass-through 50% of the registration fee to the tenant in the month of August so long as your tenant received a 30-Day advance written notice.
