One of the biggest factors in keeping good tenants isn’t complicated—it’s consistent maintenance.
When properties are well-maintained and issues are handled quickly, tenants are more likely to stay, take care of the space, and avoid unnecessary turnover.
On the flip side, deferred maintenance is where we tend to see problems—longer vacancies, more complaints, and higher costs over time.
A lot of what we do at Jamico Properties comes down to staying ahead of these issues and making sure nothing slips through the cracks.
It’s not flashy, but it makes a real difference in protecting the value of a rental property.
New building performance standards are being discussed in Los Angeles County—and they could impact how rental properties are operated in the coming years.
These regulations are focused on energy efficiency and emissions, but for property owners, they often translate into upgrades, added costs, and new compliance requirements.
We’re paying close attention to these conversations because changes like this don’t stay “optional” for long.
If you own rental property, it’s worth staying informed—or working with a team that is.
There are upcoming sessions through AAGLA for those who want to follow the discussion more closely:
If you own rental property in Southern California, staying on top of eviction rules and rent control laws isn’t optional. I’s getting more complex every year.
The California Apartment Association is launching a summer series focused on L.A. eviction regulations and rent control updates. It’s a good reminder of how quickly these rules evolve—and how easy it is to make a costly mistake if you’re not paying close attention.
We’re seeing more property owners reach out lately who are unsure how to handle tenant issues while staying compliant.
If that’s you, you’re not alone.
Whether you attend sessions like this or work with a team that stays on top of it for you, the key is having a clear, compliant approach in place.
While details are still developing, changes to tax-related policies can have a meaningful effect on the economics of owning rental property in California.
For property owners, staying informed on these types of initiatives is part of managing risk in an already complex regulatory environment.
When a tenant reports mold, how you respond matters—both from a liability and property protection standpoint.
Mold issues are not just maintenance requests. They can quickly turn into habitability claims if not handled properly.
A structured response typically includes:
Identifying and addressing the source of moisture Inspecting the affected areas promptly Documenting findings and communication Completing repairs in a timely manner
It’s also important to recognize that not all mold situations are the same. Misdiagnosing the issue—or delaying action—can increase both cost and risk.
For property owners, having a clear process in place helps protect the asset and reduces exposure to potential disputes.
At Jamico Properties, we approach these situations with a focus on documentation, response time, and long-term prevention.
Several California bills that would have added costs and operational restrictions for rental housing providers are likely shelved for the year.
From a property owner perspective, this matters.
Proposed legislation included:
Requirements that could increase development costs Limitations on how landlords verify tenant information Additional compliance layers for already regulated properties
If passed, these types of policies typically translate to:
Higher operating costs Increased risk exposure More complexity in day-to-day management
For now, the legislative environment remains relatively stable—but this is a reminder of how quickly regulations can shift in California.
Property owners who stay informed and take a structured approach to management are generally better positioned to protect long-term performance.
At Jamico Properties, we continue to monitor these changes closely and adjust strategies accordingly.
Recent updates in California include the lifting of multiple declared states of emergency, which affects how certain price-gouging restrictions are applied.
For property owners, this change may impact how temporary rent limitations tied to emergency orders are interpreted going forward. However, standard rent control laws and local regulations still apply.
Understanding how these rules interact is important for maintaining compliance and making informed decisions about rental pricing.
At Jamico Properties, we monitor regulatory changes closely to help our clients navigate updates and manage their properties responsibly.
A proposed streetlight assessment in Los Angeles could increase annual costs for property owners.
The measure would be determined through a Proposition 218 ballot and may impact properties differently based on size and classification, with multifamily properties potentially seeing higher assessments.
Property owners should ensure their mailing information is up to date and review ballot materials carefully, as this type of assessment can affect ongoing operating expenses.
At Jamico Properties, we monitor local developments that may impact property costs and long-term planning.

A statewide ballot initiative tied to Proposition 13 is gaining traction—and it’s something California property owners should be watching.
Measures like this can directly impact:
Property tax structures
Long-term ownership costs
Investment strategy decisions
While details are still developing, changes to tax-related policies can have a meaningful effect on the economics of owning rental property in California.
For property owners, staying informed on these types of initiatives is part of managing risk in an already complex regulatory environment.

Understanding proposed changes under AB 1963 is important for property owners.
The bill would introduce the use of portable screening reports, which could impact how rental applications are reviewed and processed.
For property owners, this may require adjustments to screening procedures and documentation practices to remain consistent and compliant.
At Jamico Properties, we monitor legislative updates to help our clients stay informed and prepared as requirements evolve.
