Making It Illegal for HOAs to Ban Renters

The overwhelming majority of new housing construction in California is governed by a Homeowner’s Association (HOA). Due to a loophole in state law, these HOAs can prohibit homeowners from renting their properties, thereby limiting the pool of rentals and driving up rents in all other properties.

AB 3182 amends existing law to make it illegal for HOAs to ban renters.
