Free Beverly Hills Eviction & Tenancy Notice Forms

Yes. Beverly Hills has had rent stabilization since 1978 under the Rent Stabilization Ordinance (RSO), found in Title 4, Chapters 5 and 6 of the Beverly Hills Municipal Code.

The RSO covers most multifamily residential units and limits annual rent increases. Just cause is required for most evictions, and the ordinance is administered by the Beverly Hills Rent Stabilization Division.

Under Beverly Hills Rent Stabilization Division, Beverly Hills requires just cause for any eviction of a covered tenant. The grounds fall into two categories:

Fault-based grounds — based on the tenant's conduct: non-payment of rent, breach of lease, nuisance, illegal use, criminal activity on the premises, refusal to renew, refusal to allow lawful entry, or other tenant-caused grounds enumerated in the ordinance.

No-fault grounds — based on the landlord's circumstances: owner or qualifying family-member move-in, withdrawal from the rental market (Ellis Act), substantial remodel or demolition, or compliance with a government order. No-fault terminations require relocation assistance.

The exact list of grounds, the documentation required for each, and any city-specific cure periods are set by Beverly Hills Rent Stabilization Division and updated as the ordinance is amended. Always verify the current grounds with the agency before serving a notice.

When a landlord serves a no-fault eviction in Beverly Hills (owner move-in, substantial remodel, withdrawal from the rental market, demolition, or compliance with a government order), the local ordinance requires relocation assistance to be paid to the tenant.

Amounts typically vary by:

• Tenant category — standard tenants vs. senior (62+), disabled, low-income, or families with minor children (protected categories receive higher amounts)
• Unit size — studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom+
• Length of tenancy — long-term tenants are sometimes entitled to additional payments

Beverly Hills Rent Stabilization Division sets the current relocation schedule and updates it periodically (often annually, indexed to CPI). Timing of payment also varies by city — some require full payment at notice service, others split between service and vacancy. Confirm the current amounts and timing rules with the agency before serving a no-fault notice.
