Quick test: if you manage rental property in more than one East Bay city, do you actually know all four rent-control systems โ or just the rate for each one? ๐๏ธ
Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, and Emeryville each run their own rent-control system โ different rates, different registration deadlines, different just-cause eviction timing. Mixing them up is one of the more common (and costlier) mistakes we see in multi-city portfolios.
We just published a side-by-side breakdown of all four: 2026โ2027 rates, registration rules, and eviction timing, plus the mistake AEBP sees most in multi-city portfolios. Link to the full guide in the comments.
