Get Ready for The Rental Housing Show

The AAOC Rental Housing Show is consistently one of the highlights of my year and an event that I always look forward to attending along with my staff. I have participated in the show both as an exhibitor and as an attendee over the years, and I can say, unequivocally, that committing part of my day to connect with other industry professionals, explore new business opportunities, and expand my base of knowledge provides me with a great return on investment.

Whether you are a rental housing veteran or newer to the profession, I want to encourage you to attend this year’s AAOC Rental Housing Show on Thursday, March 19, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the OC Fair & Event Center in Costa Mesa. The show has experienced tremendous growth in recent years, and we anticipate having close to 140 exhibitors, in addition to five education seminars, four live maintenance demonstrations, and plenty of

opportunities to get connected with your industry colleagues.

This year’s education offerings are not to be missed. As you know, owning and operating rentals in California is an increasingly complex and risky business proposition due to the hostile legislative and legal environments in which we operate. It is critical that we keep ourselves informed about the laws that regulate our industry as well as the legislation being deliberated in Sacramento each year. Please do yourself a favor and attend these sessions to ensure you are staying informed and taking the appropriate steps to protect yourself and your business operations:

• Best Practices for Managing Your Tenants and Avoiding Legal Pitfalls featuring Michael Bennan (The Brennan Law Firm)

• 2026 Legal Update featuring Tyler Greer (Kimball Tirey & St. John)

• Fair Housing in 45 Minutes featuring Denise Cato (Fair Housing Council of Orange County)

We will also present two seminars focused on the business, operational, and marketing sides of the rental business. If you are looking for guidance, tips, and strategies to help you set your community apart in this competitive rental market, maximize revenue, and operate more effectively and confidently, then you will definitely want to attend these sessions:

• Effective Property Marketability Strategies... On A Budget! featuring Laura Lemansky and Denise Brandl (Valet Living)

• Managing Your Investment Property 101 featuring Patti Widget (Widget’s Way)

I’m also looking forward to the live maintenance demonstrations that will be presented in our Maintenance Demonstration Zone in the exhibit hall. This year’s demonstrations will feature:

• Plumbing & Drain Care

• General Maintenance and Repair

• Roofing Basics

• Electrical 101

If you haven’t already done so, be sure to register for The AAOC Rental Housing Show at https://www.aaoc.com/events/ rental-housing-show-2026

I hope to see you at the show on Thursday, March 19th at the OC Fair & Event Center. If our paths don’t cross in the exhibition hall or the seminar room, please do not hesitate to swing by JLE Property Management’s Booth 327 where I’ll also be throughout the day with my team.

Sincerely,

Tax STraTegieS for 2026

Rental Housing Industry Scores Big Legislative Victory, While Other Battles Wage On

Last month, the California rental housing industry came together to stop AB 1157 (Kalra) which proposed to make statewide rent control permanent, slice in half the maximum allowable annual increase in rent—from no more than 10% to no more than 5%—and eliminate the exemption for single-family rental homes. The bill died in the Assembly Judiciary Committee—the committee for which the author serves as chair— and the rental housing industry can both celebrate this significant victory and breathe a sigh of relief.

Legislation that is very much alive, that was introduced in 2025 and is eligible to be voted on this year, is the subject of this article. If these bills are passed by the legislature and signed into law by the governor, the consequences will be severe. Not insignificantly, these bills have all been authored by Senator Dr. Aisha Wahab (D-Hayward).

SB 436 (Wahab) proposes to extend the three-day notice to pay or quit to a 14-day notice, in order to give tenants additional time to acquire the necessary funds and thereby avoid eviction. But this is not 14 calendar days; Saturdays, Sundays, and any judicial holidays are excluded from the 14-day period. The author argues that the extension of time would bring California law in line with Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginial and Washington. The author also argues that the bill would save the time and resources of

owners, tenants and courts. One response: Really? Or is the response by owners and agents one that the bill would provide no incentive for timely payments, thus creating a 14-day plus grace period as an interest free loan.

Tenants have argued that the bill will protect tenants who fall behind on rent due to “a missed paycheck,” fixed income payment, late rental assistance or other financial setback. Homeless advocates stated that the measure will help prevent displacement and homelessness, and “spare both tenants and landlords from spending unnecessary time and resources in court.”

Our counter to many of those that support the bill is that the bill would unilaterally delay tenants rent payments until late in each month regardless of financial need or hardship. In addition, housing providers become involuntary creditors.

SB 522 (Wahab) exempts housing built to replace a previous dwelling from the 15-year rolling exemption for new construction in the just cause eviction provisions of the Tenant Protection Act of 2019. Specifically, the bill exempts housing built to replace a dwelling unit that meets all of the following: 1) the previous unit was substantially damaged or destroyed by a disaster (flood, fire, storm, tidal wave, earthquake, epidemic, or other similar public calamity) that the governor determines presents a threat to public safety; 2) the previous unit was issued a certificate of occupancy before the unit was substan-

tially damaged or destroyed by the disaster; and 3) the unit was subject to the just cause eviction provisions of the Tenant Protection Act.

The author argues that “Protecting tenants from unjust evictions is one of the most basic anti-displacement and anti-homelessness actions we can take. The Tenant Protection Act established these provisions for units with a certificate of occupancy date older than 15 years from the current date.” In response to the author’s claims, we know the tenant has been displaced due to fire, flood, earthquake, etc. There must not be any other conclusion when a major disaster occurs.

We have posited that the bill overlooks the financial difficulty of rebuilding rental housing after a disaster, that the bill unquestionably will contribute to the exodus of rental property owners, and particularly “mom and pop” owners. Clearly, the bill disincentivizes reconstruction of rental dwellings.

SB 384 (Wahab) seeks to prohibit the sale and use of specified algorithms that process non-public input data and are used to set or assist in setting the price or supply level of a good or service, or the rent or occupancy level of rental property. Persons would be prohibited from selling, licensing, providing or using price-setting algorithms with the intent or reasonable expectation that it be used by two or more competitors in the same market if the person knows or

A Valentine Message to Rental Housing Providers— Will You Be Our Long-Term Partner?

Dear Rental-Housing Providers,

Roses are red.

Violets are blue.

City Hall has ideas.

And Sacramento does, too.

Some of those ideas are…let’s call them high maintenance. Others are wellintentioned but exhausting. And a few —looking at you, Costa Mesa—are starting to feel like that point in a relationship

when someone asks for your phone password—“just to be transparent.”

Still, here we are. Together. Again. Because if there is one thing this industry has proven, it’s that you don’t walk away when things get complicated.

And right now, things are complicated.

Costa Mesa: “We Trust You… But Need to Verify”

Let’s start with the elephant in the room—or rather, the 3-Day Notice taped to the front door.

In Costa Mesa, the city is considering an expansion of its Just Cause Eviction Ordinance to require rental property owners and operators to provide the city with a copy of every 3-Day “Pay Rent or Quit” notice served for “at-fault” reasons.

They’re calling it transparency. We’re calling it a municipal CC line on your day-to-day operations.

This proposal doesn’t stop bad behavior. It doesn’t fix affordability. What it does is create a centralized enforcement pipeline—one that invites fees, audits, second-guessing, and political pressure every time an owner enforces a lease.

We are meeting with city staff—as are other property rights organizations—with the hope of correcting the misguided assumptions that drove this proposal in the first place.

And here’s the truth we need to say out loud this Valentine’s Day: This one only stops if you show up.

Costa Mesa is watching closely to see whether rental property owners and operators engage—or quietly accept it. And if this proposal passes, it could signal the beginning of things to come.

Anaheim: The One That Keeps Saying, “Just One More Thing”

Then there’s Anaheim.

Anaheim already has layers of renter protections. But lately, the conversation has shifted toward even more—often framed as “small adjustments” or “reasonable safeguards”—with very little discussion of cumulative impact.

Anaheim is a bellwether city. What happens there gets noticed, and what passes there gets copied by other jurisdictions.

And this is where your voice matters more than you think.

Because, when only tenants show up, the story writes itself. When owners and managers speak—calmly, factually, and consistently—the narrative changes. Not overnight. But enough to matter.

Love, after all, is about being present, not just being right.

Sacramento: The Mood Is Shifting (Yes, Really)

In the State Capitol, something unusual happened recently: restraint.

AB 1157—the bill that would have pushed rent control even further— didn’t just stall. It died. And progressive members of the Assembly Judiciary

Committee openly acknowledged something we’ve been saying for years:

Further restricting property rights risks stunting housing development— including affordable housing.

That didn’t happen by accident. That happened because rental property owners and operators engaged, data was shared, and real-world consequences were put in front of people who don’t live in policy memos.

At the same time, SB 417—the $10 billion housing bond—is moving. And it has a high likelihood of passing when it appears on the statewide ballot later this year. But bonds come with conditions, restrictions, and long-term consequences for how housing is owned, operated, and preserved.

If you care about how those rules are written, you already know the answer: You don’t ghost the process. You lean in.

A Valentine’s Proposal (Yes, This Is the Ask)

So here it is. The awkward kneebend. The heartfelt pitch.

We’re asking you to be part of this— not just in spirit, but in practice.

• Show up when Costa Mesa holds its public hearing on this ordinance.

• Engage early as Anaheim debates “enhanced” renter protections.

• Respond to our Legislative Red Alerts when Sacramento starts moving forward, full throttle.

• Share your stories, your data, your realities.

• Support the advocacy work that carries your voice when you can’t be in every room.

Because here’s the secret no one tells you: Your involvement has already made a difference.

AB 1157 didn’t fail because legislators suddenly became landlords. It failed because they finally heard—from you and your fellow housing providers—about the impact of these policies on rental housing.

That’s not luck. That’s partnership.

In Closing (… But not on our love…)

This industry is not looking for a fling. It’s looking for stability. Predictability. A future that makes sense. And that future doesn’t come from waiting it out. It comes from showing up, staying engaged, and refusing to let one-sided stories define your work.

So, consider this our Valentine’s Day proposal:

Let’s keep doing this—together.

Let’s protect what you’ve built.

Let’s make the case that housing works best when policy and reality actually talk to each other.

Will you be our partner in that?

With respect, appreciation, resolve, and a little sarcasm,

—The AAOC Advocacy Team

should know that the algorithm processes non-public input data to set a price or supply level or a good or service or a rent or occupancy level of rental property. The bill also provides an affirmative defense to liability for a user of price-setting algorithm if the user demonstrates by the preponderance of evidence that they exercised reasonable due diligence. Finally, the bill authorizes the state Attorney General, district attorney, city attorney or county counsel to file a civil action for damages, injunctive relief, restitution, rea-

sonable attorney’s fees and costs.

This measure is one of several that tries to define when use and distribution of price-setting algorithms becomes an anti-competitive practice tantamount to price-fixing. Another bill, for example, is SB 52 (Perez), which would prohibit specified uses of rental pricing algorithms that process non-public competitor data. Another bill in this space, AB 325 (Aguiar-Curry), specifies that using or distributing a common pricing algorithm to further a “price-fixing conspiracy” is a violation of the Cartwright Act.

All AI-related measures would in

many ways inhibit lawful use of understanding the marketplace of rent and occupancy of units. This issue cannot be ignored or cast away as only affecting large rental properties.

Undoubtedly, there will be more to come on this particular policy front in the months and years to come.

Questions & Answers

I am relatively new to the rental business, as I recently inherited several single-family homes from my deceased father. Unfortunately, one of my tenants failed to pay the rent for a few months so I had to finally file an eviction against her. As you might guess, she got one of those free (taxpayer paid) legal-aid type of attorneys who claims my dad’s rent increase notices are all illegal and I actually owe the tenant money, rather than the other way around. I double checked the emails in which my

dad notified the tenant about the increases and all of them seem to be correctly done. In fact, my dad typically notified the tenants roughly 60 days before the increase went into effect. Still, her attorney insists the notices were illegal, all the way back to the year 2008 (her first increase). Can that be possible? How can the increases be illegal, where I have her payments of the increased amounts, as well as the emails to prove she was served the increase, knew about it, and even paid them (until recently)? I get the feeling her attorney is simply being slimy so I will drop the lawsuit or pay her (and him) to leave. What are your thoughts?

recognized nor acceptable method of service. Each increase that was not served correctly is, technically, illegal, as is each increase given afterward, even if the subsequent increase was served correctly! In your case, it sounds like all the increases were served by email and, therefore, they are all illegal, back to the first one given in 2008.

Unfortunately, her attorney isn’t being “slimy” (at least, not in this situation) and, moreover, he is likely correct! A change in terms of tenancy increasing the rent must be served either personally on the tenant, or by mail. According to you, your father served the notices of increase by email which is neither a

While I hate to be the bearer of bad news, this scenario could be more problematic than you might initially think. For example, assuming your father approached all rent increases in the same manner (through email) for each of the tenants in each of the singlefamily homes he rented out, you could be looking at a significant amount of illegal rent increases that would have to be credited back to the residents. It would make sense to go through your father’s paperwork (if you haven’t already done so) and see if there are any records of physical notices having been served in conjunction with the

email notices. It’s not uncommon for landlords to do both (serve it correctly as well as through an email). If you can prove your father correctly served the increase notices (in person or by mail) and the emails were merely another way of informing the tenant about the increase, then provide copies of those documents to the tenant’s attorney and it is unlikely you have anything to worry about. On the other hand, without proof the notices were served according to the statue, your best hope for resolving the eviction case is to negotiate some type of settlement, get the numbers figured out, and get her tenancy back on track.

My brother and I own a condominium that we’ve been renting out for the last few years, using the Apartment Association’s lease. Recently, our tenant began fighting with her husband and we’ve started receiving complaints about the noise levels. Several neighbors (non-renters) have com-

plained to the homeowners’ association who recently sent us a polite, but stern letter about the complaints. The association keeps sending me notices of violation and is now threatening that they will start issuing fines if we don’t stop the noise, preferably by removing the offensive couple. Can we legally evict them if they continue to cause complaints? What about the fines I’ve been threatened with? Can we charge the tenants for any fines we have to pay?

It is likely that your rental agreement has several provisions that you can use to remedy the situation. For example, the agreement likely notifies the tenant that the premises are subject to the community CC&Rs, and that the resident is required to comply with the homeowners’ association rules and regulations, as well as the CC&Rs (I assume you provided the tenants with a copy of the CC&Rs as part of the rental agreement). Provided your tenants were notified of the rules and regulations, and their actions caused you to

be fined, then you can pass those fines through to the tenants. More importantly, you should send them a “warning” letter regarding the noise, and let them know that their arguing is causing other tenants to complain and, in the event they can’t act like adults and refrain from the loud arguing, you will deem their behavior to be a nuisance and you will terminate their tenancy on three days’ notice.

My sister and her husband are going through a divorce, and they want to know if I am interested in purchasing their single-family residence. It hasn’t been listed and could be a great deal for me due to their situation and their need to liquidate it quickly. However, the fly in the ointment is the fact that there is a tenant residing in it who doesn’t know about the divorce, or the fact that they want to sell the house. My brother-in-law says that when I close escrow, I can evict the tenant if I want, Legal Q & A — continued on page 14

because the house isn’t subject to any rent control or just cause ordinance. They don’t want the tenant to know about the sale or the eviction, for obvious reasons, and I’m okay with that. But I am concerned about the deal due to the radical changes that have taken place in the landlord-tenant industry over the last decade. I don’t want any more problems in life. What should I be considering if I am interested in moving forward with the deal?

There are a lot of things to think about in your situation. First, there is a tenant in the house, and you haven’t mentioned whether you have reviewed the lease or rental agreement. Is the tenant in a fixed-term lease? Are there options on it? Is the rent under market? Does the lease have an option to purchase in favor of the tenant? Is the tenant currently in default in any manner? You are bound by whatever rental agreement, or contract, exists between your family members and the tenant, so you need to understand the parameters of the situa-

tion. Beyond the contractual relationship, have you looked at the house recently? Is it possible there could be mold, asbestos, lead, or some other contamination issue on the property? If the house is a good deal for you, then set up a due diligence period that will allow you to thoroughly review the house, the lease agreement, title, and any other issue you can think of. Assuming everything checks out as okay, introduce yourself to the tenant and provide them with an estoppel certificate to sign affirming the tenancy agreement, amount of deposit, and affirming that they don’t have any claims against the sellers, nor any claim to a legal interest in the property. If all that checks out as okay, close escrow and enjoy your new rental unit.

DEAR MAINTENANCE MEN

Dear Maintenance Men:

My apartment building has freestanding garages that have a pedestrian door in addition to the main vehicle garage door. We have had several garages broken into recently and I’m looking into ways to strengthen the pedestrian doors as that was the point of entry for each break in. The doors swing in and even with the dead bolt locked the thieves managed to get in. How can I strengthen the door without it looking like a jail? Clint

Dear Clint:

Try reversing the entry door. Have the door swing out instead of into the garage. You can reinforce the frame from the inside by installing a 1x2 inch doorstop all along your doorframe. The door will close against this new frame and will make it very hard to kick in. The frame stop can be either wood or square metal tube material. The door should be a solid core exterior grade

and use a good quality dead bolt lock. The hinges will be exposed, so use three heavy-duty, tamper-proof hinges. This will produce a very solid and near impenetrable door. Without noisy power tools or a police ram, nobody is getting through without a key.

at least six inches deeper than normal. Fill the bottom six inches of the hole with ½" sized gravel; then set your post in place, level it, and pour in another two-or-three inches of gravel. Fill the balance of the hole with Ready-Mix or Post-Mix concrete. Taper the top of the

reasonable. The quick and easy answer would be to install a self-closing/locking security door and give keys to all the tenants. This works to a point, but over time the door may find itself open. So, we tried to beat the vandals at their own game. We now install “T-111” plywood along the lower four feet of the laundry room walls. T-111 plywood comes in a 4x8 sheet and has vertical lines running through it. Typically, T-111 is used for garage door sheathing and building siding. Installation is straight forward. We cut the plywood in half, producing 4x4 sheets. These are then screwed to the wall at every 16” or at each wall stud. The lines should be vertical. Then, install a 1x4 plank to trim the top of the sheet along with a plank at the bottom as replacement for the base coving. Caulk all seams and edges, paint with primer and enamel paint of choice. If you two tone the trim board and T-111, it looks very nice and it will be a lot tougher on your little vandals’ toes than your wall!

Additional Insights from the AAOC 2026 Multifamily Forecast

My column in last month’s issue of Apartment News recapped the Apartment Association of Orange County’s 2026 Multifamily Forecast and the panel discussion that I moderated, featuring Jerry Fink of The Bascom Group, Paul Julian of Advanced Real Estate, and Jeremy Fitzl of L’Abri Management. Collectively, these firms represent some of the most active investors, owners, and operators of multifamily housing not just in Southern California, but across the United States. Their perspectives are grounded not in theory, but in decisions, operations and transactions that are happening right now. Bascom and Advanced, alone, accounted for hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions in 2025.

Those of you who have attended the Multifamily Forecast in previous years know the event is an excellent way to not only recap where our industry has been over the past year but to also catch up with industry friends and partners and, most importantly, speculate on where the industry is heading. Each year, the forecast brings together industry leaders who are not only thoughtful observers of the market, but also active participants who are shaping it in real time.

General State of the Market

Unsurprisingly, the panel discussion began with rents, market values, and investment activity—topics that remain top of mind for owners navigating a post-volatility market. While the last few years have required patience

and discipline, the panel largely agreed that fundamentals across Southern California remain stable and are showing signs of improvement as we move into 2026. Rates won’t drop and the general consensus was that we should expect to see more of the same this year. The market has somewhat normalized and you can hate it or love it, but don’t expect much change.

Local Investment

As noted above, one of the most telling signals of confidence came not from speculation but from recent acquisitions. Both Advanced Real Estate and The Bascom Group have been active buyers locally, underscoring their belief in the long-term strength of this region. Advanced has made significant investments in Santa Ana and West Covina, while Bascom recently made a big buy in The South Bay. These are not speculative bets—they are targeted acquisitions in markets where experienced operators see durable demand, constrained supply, and long-term upside.

Measured Rent Growth

When asked about rent growth, the panel struck a balanced tone. The days of outsized, rapid rent increases appear to be behind us, at least for now. Instead, the outlook is for more measured, sustainable growth aligned with wage trends and household formation. That moderation, however, is not a negative. In fact, many agreed it reflects a healthier

market environment—one where operational excellence, resident experience, and asset management matter more than simply riding market momentum.

Values Stabilizing

Market values followed a similar narrative. After a period of price discovery driven by interest rate volatility, values are beginning to stabilize. The consensus was that while cap rates may not return to historic lows anytime soon, pricing has adjusted enough to allow deals to pencil again—particularly for well-located assets with strong operational fundamentals. As capital markets continue to normalize, transaction volume is expected to increase, albeit selectively.

Interestingly, and consistent with many multifamily conversations over the years, the panel expressed relatively little concern about the broader economy itself. Employment, housing demand, and demographic trends remain supportive of apartments. Southern California, and Orange County in particular, continues to benefit from strong job centers, limited new supply, and an enduring preference for rental housing.

Political and Regulatory Uncertainties

Where concern did surface, clearly and consistently, was around political and regulatory uncertainty. The ongoing push by legislators for stricter rent control policies remains a major source

Estate & Legacy Planning Basics

Where to Store It and Who Can Find It

In my last article, I talked about staying organized without letting estate planning take over your life. The natural next question I hear is simple and practical. Where does all this information live, and how does the right person find it when it matters?

This is where many good plans quietly fail. Documents exist. Lists exist. Intentions are clear in someone’s head. But when a successor trustee or executor steps in, they cannot find what they need, do not know what is current, they don’t have passwords, or are afraid to touch anything for fear of doing it wrong. Organization without access is just clutter with better intentions.

The goal here is not perfection. The goal is clarity. One trusted system. One known location. One clear path for the person stepping in after you.

Let’s start with the biggest mistake I see. Too many locations. Some documents are with an attorney. Some are in a home safe. Others are buried in email attachments, old filing cabinets, or a

laptop that no one can unlock. When information is scattered, your successor spends the first weeks playing detective instead of managing the estate.

You want fewer locations, not more. Pick a primary home for your estate information and make sure the right person knows where it is and how to access it.

There are three basic storage approaches that work when done correctly. Physical storage, digital storage, or a combination of the two. Each can be effective if you are intentional.

Physical storage still has a place. A fireproof safe or locked file cabinet works well for original documents like wills, trusts, deeds, and other documents that require the original wet signature. If you go this route, keep it simple. Label folders clearly. Avoid mixing estate documents with old tax returns and other miscellaneous files. Keep up to date and remove old versions. Most important, someone else must know where the safe is and how to open it. A safe no

one can access is just an expensive box.

Digital storage has become the preferred option for many families. It allows documents to be updated easily, shared securely, and accessed quickly. This can be a secure cloud folder, a digital vault, or a document management system. The key is discipline. Files should be named clearly and updated regularly. Avoid dumping random PDFs into a folder without structure. Digital storage works best when there is a simple index or summary explaining what is there.

A hybrid approach is often the most practical. Originals stay in a physical location. Copies, summaries, and instructions live digitally. This gives flexibility without sacrificing security.

Now let’s talk about passwords and sensitive access. This is where people get nervous, and understandably so. Writing passwords on paper or hiding them in desk drawers is risky. At the same time, refusing to document anything creates problems when accounts need to be accessed quickly.

A reputable password manager can solve this if used correctly. It allows you to store login information securely and share access with a trusted person or provide instructions on how it will be accessed when needed. This is not about giving someone full access today. It is about making sure access is possible when required. I personally use Bitwarden as a password manager, but there are many options.

Whatever method you choose, do

not include account numbers or passwords inside unsecured documents or estate binders. Keep access instructions separate and protected.

Next, decide who needs to know what. This does not mean everyone gets everything. In fact, oversharing often causes more anxiety than clarity. At a minimum, your executor or successor trustee should know where documents are stored, who your advisors are, and how to access the system you have chosen. A backup person should know this as well.

Other family members may only need high-level information. Let them know that a plan exists and who is responsible for carrying it out. This alone reduces panic and speculation later.

One simple but powerful tool is a one-page roadmap. This is not a legal document. It is a guide. It lists where

documents are stored, who the key contacts are, and what steps should be taken first. Think of it as the instruction sheet that saves your successor from guessing.

This is also a good place to include a short note explaining your preferences. Not legal language. Just context. Why certain decisions were made. What matters most to you. This helps humanize the process and reduces misinterpretation.

Finally, test your system. Ask yourself one honest question. If I were unavailable tomorrow, could someone step in and find what they need within an hour? If the answer is no, the system needs refining.

You do not need to overhaul everything. Small adjustments go a long way. Consolidate locations. Clarify access. Communicate clearly.

Estate planning does not fail because people do nothing. It fails because people do half the job and assume the rest will work itself out. Storage and access are not exciting topics, but they are where clarity turns into execution.

In the next article, we will look at how to choose the right person to step into these roles and how to prepare them without overwhelming them. Because even the best system still depends on a human being willing and able to carry it forward.

of frustration and risk for owners and operators. The panel emphasized that the challenge is not simply the existence of regulation, but the unpredictability and pace at which new policies are proposed and enacted. This turbulence makes long-term planning more difficult and can have unintended consequences for housing investment and maintenance.

Experience Fuels Optimism

That said, the prevailing mood was far from pessimistic. Despite regulatory

headwinds, the panelists conveyed a measured optimism grounded in experience. Multifamily housing has weathered cycles before, and well-located, well-managed apartments continue to perform. Orange County, in particular, remains a uniquely resilient market that is supported by strong demographics, limited land availability, and sustained demand.

The conversation ultimately came full circle with a conclusion that felt both honest and enduring: it’s tough to beat owning apartments in Orange County. While challenges exist, as they always do, the fundamentals, the people,

and the long-term outlook continue to make this market one of the most compelling places to own and operate multifamily housing.

Recent Federal Administrative Changes Aimed at Limiting the Application of Disparate Impact Liability in Housing

Law Enforcement Begin.

BY LYNN E. CALKINS AND CHRISTINE WALZ

Special from the National Apartment Association

Soon after taking office, President Donald Trump issued an executive order (EO), “Restoring Equality of Opportunity and Meritocracy,” mandating the cessation of federal enforcement of the “disparate impact” theory of liability. This EO initiated a series of administrative actions that, when taken together, set the stage for a dramatic limitation of disparate impact liability for multifamily housing operators and developers in 2026 and beyond.

Pertinent Background

Federal courts have long held that the Fair Housing Act prohibits both (1) discriminatory treatment (intentional discrimination) and (2) discriminatory effects—when a facially neutral policy or action results in an adverse effect on a protected group (such as a race) and cannot be justified as serving a legiti-

mate business purpose (also known as “disparate impact”).

Disparate impact liability under the Fair Housing Act was specifically addressed in June 2015 when the U.S. Supreme Court held that the Fair Housing Act precludes policies that are neutral on their face but have discriminatory effects—even without proof of intent. See Texas Dept. of Housing & Community Affairs v. Inclusive Communities Project, Inc., 576 U.S. 519 (2015).

The case involved a lawsuit brought by an advocacy group against the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs under the Fair Housing Act (which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race or color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, and familial status). The advocacy group alleged that the Department and its officers had caused continued segre-

gated housing patterns by allocating too many tax credits to housing in predominantly minority inner-city areas and too few in predominantly white suburban neighborhoods.

The Court evaluated the language of the Fair Housing Act and noted that it mirrors language in employment statutes (including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act), both of which had historically allowed for disparate impact liability. See Griggs v. Duke Power Co., 401 U.S. 424, 91 S. Ct. 849, 28 L. Ed. 2d 158 (1971). It further reasoned that “disparate-impact liability…plays an important role in uncovering discriminatory intent: it permits plaintiffs to counteract unconscious prejudices and disguised animus that escape easy clas-

sification as disparate treatment.”

Under Inclusive Communities Project, policies and practices that cause a disparate impact are permissible only when they are “necessary to achieve a valid interest.” To date, the U.S. Supreme Court has not revisited this decision.

The EO and Its Impact

Despite the Inclusive Communities Project decision, in the EO, President Trump stated that it is the policy of the United States to eliminate the use of disparate impact liability in all contexts to the maximum extent possible to avoid violations of the U.S. Constitution, federal civil rights laws and fundamental American principles.

In support of this objective, through the EO, the President instructed federal agencies to rescind previous administrative actions that implemented the disparate impact doctrine and to cease

all utilization of the disparate impact theory of liability. The President also called for a comprehensive review and replacement of all implementing regulations for Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as well as all other regulations, guidance, rules or orders to the extent that they contemplate disparate impact liability.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) have taken the following administrative actions to implement the President’s directive set forth in the EO:

• In mid-September, HUD released a guidance memorandum on Fair Housing Act Enforcement and Prioritization of Resources. The document states that the Department will prioritize claims of intentional discrimination, rather than claims based on disparate impact theories.

• On November 25, 2025, HUD Secretary Scott Turner issued a letter to Public Housing Authorities and Owners on criminal screening requirements for such housing, substantially changing the protocol to be followed for that housing.

• On December 9, 2025, DOJ published a final rule that rescinds the disparate impact liability provisions in the existing implementing regulations for Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.

• And, most recently, on January 14, 2026, HUD issued a proposed rule that would eliminate all HUD regulations governing disparate impact liability under the Fair Housing Act.

• HUD also revoked existing guidance documents on the basis that they were inconsistent with the statutory text of the Fair Housing Act.

Policy Changes

As discussed in greater detail below, each of these four actions reflects a significant change in federal enforcement priorities.

1. HUD Guidance Memorandum on Fair Housing Enforcement and Prioritization of Resources

On September 16, 2025, HUD’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) issued guidance stating that it will be prioritizing cases with strong evidence of intentional discrimination under the Fair Housing Act while deprioritizing investigations based on disparate impact theories.

In doing so, HUD characterized disparate impact theories as “novel or tenuous theories” of liability and specifically revoked guidance from the agency addressing appraisal bias, zoning, environmental justice, and criminal background screening policies.

The internal guidance document states that HUD will now (a) require the preparation of priority memorandums before filing a case, which must detail the statutory basis for the enforcement action, protected classes, allegations, evidence, respondent rebuttal, damages methodology and litigation viability and (b) mandate senior-level review before proceeding with an enforcement action.

2. HUD Revocation of Fair Housing Guidance Documents

The following day, on September 17, 2025, the FHEO issued a memorandum withdrawing several pre-existing policy guidance documents. The withdrawal was effective immediately.

The withdrawn guidance documents include: – A 2007 guidance document regarding Limited English Proficiency under Title VI, which required recipients of federal funds to provide translation and

other services to individuals who do not speak English as their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, speak, or understand English;

– 2013 and 2020 guidance documents regarding Service and Assistance Animals, which addressed how housing providers could respond to specific requests for accommodation for both trained service animals and untrained assistance animals;

– A 2021 memorandum regarding gender identity and sexual orientation protections, which prohibited housing discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity (following the Supreme Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, 590 U.S. 644 (2020), which addressed the same in employment discrimination);

Changes — continued on page 28

A 2021 Statement on Special Purpose Credit Programs, which stated that lenders could offer targeted credit programs for underserved groups (like those in minority or low-income communities) without violating Fair Housing or ECOA (Equal Credit Opportunity Act) rules (so long as specific requirements were met);

– A 2022 guidance document on the use of criminal records in background screenings, which required housing providers to conduct individualized assessments considering the nature, severity, and recency of the offense, rather than using blanket bans on applicants with criminal histories;

– A 2024 notice allowing Fair Housing Assistance Program

(FHAP) funds to be used for source of income testing; and – 2024 notices addressing guidelines for how housing providers should manage the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and algorithms to avoid discrimination in digital advertising and background screenings.

To date, these pre-existing guidelines and statements have not been replaced with alternatives, leaving it to the courts to interpret the standards that must be followed.

3. HUD Letter to Public Housing Authorities and Owners

HUD has also withdrawn prior guidance that discouraged the use of criminal history in housing decisions and issued a letter to public housing authorities and owners, creating increased requirements for screening public housing residents.

PAVING COMPANY, INC.

Specifically, public housing authorities and owners are now required to deny admission for individuals who were evicted for drug-related activity within three years; are currently using illegal drugs or pose safety threats; were convicted of methamphetamine production in federally assisted housing; are lifetime registered sex offenders; and have a history of alcohol abuse threatening safety or peaceful enjoyment. Public housing authorities and owners may deny assistance for criminal activity affecting health, safety, or property enjoyment.

HUD also requires public housing authorities and owners of public housing to act on criminal activity, including drug use, violent crime, methamphetamine production and alcohol abuse, with new ‘One Strike and You’re Out’ eviction guidelines.

4. DOJ Rule on Disparate

Impact

Liability Under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act

Under Title VI, entities—both public and private—that receive federal assistance from any federal agency must take concrete steps to ensure nondiscrimination based on race, color or national origin in their programs and activities.

Title VI specifically prohibits recipients of federal funds from: denying program services, financial aid or other benefits; providing different services, financial aid or other benefits, or providing them in a manner different from that provided to others; segregating or treating individuals or groups differently in any matter related to the receipt of any service, financial aid or other benefits; denying an individual or group the opportunity to participate as a member of a planning, advisory or similar body; using other method or criteria of administering a program that treats or affects individuals or groups in a discriminatory manner; and intimidating, threatening, coercing or discriminating against any individual for the purpose of interfering with any right or privilege secured by Title

VI, or because the individual has made a complaint, testified, assisted or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding, or hearing.

Prior to the promulgation of the new December 9, 2025 rule, DOJ had the ability to bring claims under Title VI based on both intentional discrimination and discriminatory effect (or disparate impact). This was made clear in a in 2001 decision, whereby the U.S. Supreme Court limited disparate impact claims by private parties but permitted civil rights enforcement agencies to bring enforcement actions based on disparate impact liability without evidence of explicit discriminatory intent. See Alexander v. Sandoval, 532 U.S. 275 (2001).

Under the new rule, however, consistent with the President’s directive, DOJ has removed all references to the effect or impact of policies and practices on any protected class. It also makes clear that under Title VI, policies with discriminatory effects alone are not actionable.

Unlike the other changes discussed in this memorandum, this December 9, 2025 rule aligns with Supreme Court precedent in place for private litigants. Therefore, this regulatory shift will most likely be interpreted as closing off any disparate impact liability under Title VI.

5. HUD Proposed Rule Withdrawing Disparate Impact Regulations

On January 14, 2026, HUD issued a proposed rule that would eliminate all HUD regulations governing disparate impact liability under the Fair Housing Act. The rule, published in the Federal Register as HUD’s Implementation of the Fair Housing Act’s Disparate Impact Standard (91 Fed. Reg. 1475; FR Doc. 2026 00590), is open for public comment through February 13, 2026.

Since 2013, HUD has implemented disparate impact through a regulatory burden shifting test codified in 24 C.F.R. § 100.500 and Subpart G.

Changes — continued on page 30

Multifamily Laundry That Works Smarter

In the proposed rule, HUD now proposes to remove Subpart G entirely and eliminate its disparate impact regulatory framework. Under the proposal:

– HUD intends to withdraw the 2013, 2019, and 2023 disparate impact rules.

– HUD would no longer provide a regulatory test for establishing

unjustified discriminatory effects.

– HUD would defer to courts to determine the applicable standards for disparate impact liability.

In announcing the proposed rule, HUD states that these prior regulations “formalized legal tests that were not explicit in statute” and, in its view, sometimes presumed unlawful discrimination based solely on statistical

disparities, even without evidence of discriminatory intent or a facially discriminatory policy.

The proposed rule does not eliminate disparate impact liability itself. The Fair Housing Act remains unchanged, and courts may continue to recognize disparate impact claims under Inclusive Communities. However, there will be no regulatory burden-shifting standard, and case law will become the primary authority on how disparate impact claims are evaluated.

Practical Implications

Taken together, these administrative actions represent a significant shift in Fair Housing Act enforcement priorities of the federal government, especially concerning disparate impact claims. As a practical matter, they indicate that HUD and DOJ are extremely unlikely to initiate new litigation based on a disparate impact theory or that they will investigate or issue “cause” findings based on that theory.

Disparate impact liability, however, has been upheld by the Supreme Court, and, absent congressional action or a new Supreme Court ruling on disparate impact, those claims will remain viable in litigation filed by private plaintiffs and outside advocacy organizations. Additionally, state and local fair housing laws typically recognize disparate impact liability, and it is likely that courts may find that those laws are unaffected by any federal administrative changes.

As to which specific standards will be applied, courts will likely look to the general statutory requirements and case law interpreting those requirements (including pre-existing disparate impact framework) when assessing a housing provider’s actions.

This area continues to develop, and HUD and DOJ will likely provide additional guidance in the coming months. The National Apartment Association (NAA) will continue to work with

Selecting the Right Seismic Retrofit Partner: What Apartment Owners Need to Know

BY ALI SAHABI

For apartment owners, protecting residents and preserving property value in the event of a major earthquake is essential. A properly designed and executed seismic retrofit improves building safety, reduces potential damage, and helps protect longterm rental income. However, not all retrofit projects deliver the same results. Choosing a qualified and experienced seismic retrofit firm is a critical first step in ensuring your building is prepared when the next earthquake strikes.

Key Factors to Consider When Choosing a Seismic Retrofit Contractor

The seismic retrofit process involves both engineering and construction expertise. To ensure high-quality work, it is crucial to partner with an experienced and reputable company. Here are essential questions to ask when evaluating potential contractors:

• Are they properly licensed and insured?

• How many years have they been in business?

• Do they specialize in seismic retrofits, and how many similar projects have they completed?

• What do past clients say about their work?

• Do they have a stable and experienced workforce?

• How well do they communicate and address concerns?

Understanding the Retrofit Process

The first step in a seismic retrofit is a thorough engineering assessment to evaluate risks specific to your property. Factors such as building type, construction year, soil conditions, and liquefaction risks all play a role in determining the necessary structural improvements. An initial assessment can provide insight into the scope of work required before committing to a contractor.

Once you’ve determined that a retrofit is needed, it’s time to research and select the best contractor for the job.

Due Diligence Before Hiring

Verify Licensing and Insurance

• Check the legitimacy of your contractor through official databases:

• California Contractors State License Board: www.cslb.ca.gov

• California Architects Board: www.cab.ca.gov

• State Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, and Geologists: www.bpelsg.ca.gov

Ensure the company holds proper licensing and has adequate liability and worker’s compensation insurance. This protects you from potential legal and financial liabilities if an accident occurs on the job site.

Review Past Work and References

A reputable contractor should have

a proven track record with multiple successful retrofit projects. When evaluating past work, consider:

• The number of completed projects within the past year.

• Client testimonials and feedback from other apartment owners.

• Site visits to inspect the quality of completed projects, including structural work and aesthetic integration.

Additionally, assess the contractor’s ability to manage tenant relations. Ask references:

• Were tenants displaced during construction?

• Was parking availability impacted?

• Was the worksite kept clean and safe?

Ensuring a Smooth and Legally Compliant Process

Confirm Proper Insurance Coverage

Never assume a contractor has adequate insurance—always request documentation. Ensure:

• Worker’s compensation insurance is active and covers all employees.

• General liability insurance specifically covers seismic retrofit work.

Orange County Housing: When the Single-Family Market Sneezes, Multifamily Catches a Cold

ASlow Start—But Not a Broken Market

Orange County’s housing market entered 2026 slowly, marking the coldest start to a year since 2019. Active listings opened the year at approximately 2,703 homes, the highest January start since 2020, while buyer demand remains muted and highly interest-rate sensitive.

Yet this is not a market in distress. Rather, it reflects a market paused— constrained by rate lock-in, affordability psychology, and cautious decisionmaking. Nearly 99.8% of sellers still hold equity, and distressed sales remain statistically insignificant.

The SFR Market as the “Release Valve”

Think of the SFR market as a pressure valve in the broader housing ecosystem. When single-family homes are affordable and accessible, pressure eases across rentals. When they are not, that pressure redirects—almost mechanically —into the rental market.

Orange County remains deeply ratesensitive. With mortgage rates hovering near 6.2%, affordability improves just enough to awaken some buyer demand —but not enough to meaningfully unlock inventory from homeowners sitting on sub-4% mortgages.

The result is fewer move-up buyers, fewer first-time buyers, and more households remaining renters longer.

What the Lease Market Is Quietly Saying

The Orange County lease data tells

a parallel story. In November 2025, total leased units declined seasonally, yet median rents continued to edge upward, supported by limited availability and selective renter demand.

Detached (SFR) rentals tell an even clearer story:

• Median SFR lease price: ~$5,500

• 40% of SFR rentals required price reductions to lease

• Over 50% leased below original list price

This indicates renters are price-sensitive—but still present. When SFR rents soften or lease more slowly, many households pivot toward attached housing, where price points are lower and availability more consistent.

The Ripple Effect on Multifamily

Multifamily does not operate in isolation—it absorbs overflow. When would-be buyers cannot buy and SFR rentals sit at higher price points, apartments become the “middle lane”: more attainable than ownership, more efficient than detached rentals.

Attached homes in Orange County leased at a median of approximately $3,600, with faster days-on-market and fewer price reductions than SFRs. This relative stability is not accidental—it is a direct consequence of friction in the for-sale market.

In other words, every delayed home purchase is an extended lease, and every frozen seller is a longer-term renter.

BY MERCEDES SHAFFER, REAL ESTATE BROKER

Why This Matters for Apartment Owners

Apartment owners oftentimes believe that their fortunes depend solely on multifamily supply. In reality, SFR market dynamics may matter just as much. Policies, interest rates, and narratives that constrain single-family transactions tend to extend rental duration, stabilize occupancy, and support rents in well-located apartment assets. However, this also invites scrutiny. As rental housing continues to perform— often outperform—policy attention tends to follow performance, not pain.

Final Thoughts: A Constructive Outlook for 2026

As Orange County moves through 2026, the data points to a rental housing market that is not only resilient, but well positioned. A rate-sensitive for-sale market, persistent homeowner lock-in, and cautious buyer behavior continue to extend rental tenure and support demand across multifamily housing. Even as seasonal softening appears in leasing activity, pricing stability and quick absorption in attached housing underscore the role apartments play as the market’s stabilizing force.

For rental housing providers, this environment reinforces what the data continues to show: rental housing remains one of the strongest-performing asset classes in Orange County. Prolonged affordability constraints in the for-sale market, combined with

SUPPLIER CORNER

1-Tom-Plumber

When a plumbing issue hits an apartment community, timing matters. A small leak can quickly become property damage, tenant disruption, and a stressful situation for everyone involved. At 1-Tom-Plumber, our focus is simple: respond quickly, communicate clearly, and help property teams regain control as fast as possible.

We’re a locally owned and operated plumbing company, proudly serving apartment communities and multifamily properties in our area. While we’re backed by a nationally recognized brand, our day-to-day work is very local. We know the buildings, the infrastructure challenges, and the urgency that comes with plumbing emergencies in occupied units.

Our team specializes in emergency response, unit leaks, drain issues, water heater failures, and time-sensitive repairs that can’t wait until “tomorrow.”

We arrive prepared, work efficiently, and treat each property with the same care and respect we’d expect in our own neighborhood.

Property managers appreciate our clear communication and straightforward approach. We explain what’s hap-

pening, outline options, and keep managers informed throughout the process. Our goal is to reduce repeat issues, minimize downtime, and make plumbing one less thing property teams have to worry about.

Beyond emergencies, we also support routine maintenance and unit turns, helping properties stay ahead of problems before they escalate. Consistent service, reliable follow-through, and a friendly, professional attitude are at the core of how we operate.

If your property team is ever in need of a responsive plumbing partner—or simply wants to connect with a local company that understands apartment communities—we’d be glad to start the conversation. At 1-Tom-Plumber, we’re here to help when it matters most.
