The Disclosure Dossier

Tell the tool where the unit sits and what it is. It assembles the disclosures California — and your LA County jurisdiction — require you to hand a tenant, each with its governing statute. State law is the floor everywhere; local ordinances stack on top.

Step 01

Where is the rental unit?

Sets the local layer above the statewide floor.

Step 02

Tenant Protection Act status

Every lease needs one of these — the rent-cap/just-cause notice, or the exemption notice. Getting it wrong can strip an exemption.

Step 03

What's true about this property?

Check all that apply — each toggles a conditional disclosure.

Maison et Clé

Educational compliance tool for California rental owners — not legal advice. Covers the statewide disclosure floor plus the City of Los Angeles (RSO & Just Cause) and unincorporated LA County (RSTPO). For any other LA County city, state law is your floor and the local ordinance may add more — confirm current required notices and forms with that city's housing or community-development office before leasing.
