California’s rental landscape is shifting with the signing of SB 1296, the Pet Policy Transparency Act. Starting April 1, 2027, residential landlords and property owners must maintain and explicitly disclose written pet policies—whether allowing, restricting, or prohibiting pets—before collecting any application fees.
Policies must be provided with rental applications, posted on property websites, and included in digital advertisements, with strict refund rules if requirements aren’t met. Whether you own a multi-unit portfolio or manage investment properties, staying ahead of these operational shifts is essential for compliance and risk management.
