Big Changes to Residential Housing Laws in California: SB567 and AB12
Briefly

The passage of SB 567 and AB 12 signifies California’s intention to enhance tenant protections, reflecting a continued trend in balancing landlord-tenant relationships amid rising housing costs.
Effective April 1, 2024, SB 567 modifies no-fault eviction provisions, making it harder for landlords to evict tenants under certain circumstances, thus strengthening protections for lower-income renters.
With increased damages available for housing providers violating tenant rights, the new laws amplify the importance of compliance, highlighting tenants’ rights and legal recourse in residential leasing.
The legislative changes spark debates, revealing a divided perspective on tenant protections as support for more growth-friendly housing policies confronts the need for affordable housing solutions.
