July 7, 2026 New Landlords in Mountain View: What to Know Workshop

A Mountain View city staff member led a workshop for new landlords and property owners, providing an overview of the Community Stabilization and Fair Rent Act (CSFRA) and related tenant-landlord laws. The presentation followed the tenancy lifecycle—covering tenant screening and lease agreements, rent rules and increases, compliance requirements, petitions, habitability, evictions, and post-tenancy issues like security deposits. Attendees asked questions about parking requirements, CPI/rent increases, noise habitability issues, and normal wear and tear, and staff shared resources including mediation, help centers, and upcoming workshops.
