Currently, the LAHD is making every effort to inspect all Tier 1 residential rental properties at least once every four years and Tier 2 residential rental properties at least once every two years. The inspections are comprehensive, that is, the housing inspector will inspect all buildings, rental units, and common areas of the property to verify they meet the building codes and standards for rental housing.

LAHD makes every effort to conduct Systematic Code Enforcement Program (SCEP) inspections once every four years. Beside SCEP inspections, LAHD also conducts Complaint based inspections whenever a complaint is received by LAHD. The purpose of SCEP and complaint inspections is to protect and promote the existence of sound and wholesome residential buildings and dwelling units.

Thank you for contacting LAHD’s Code Enforcement Division. Generally, your concern can be addressed by a housing inspector however, a site visit is necessary in order to verify the presence of the alleged violation. Would you like to place a complaint? Once the complaint is placed, Code Enforcement staff will contact you in order to schedule a site inspection.
If you prefer, you may place your complaint online or by phone, please see below:

RSO Notice to Post

The version of the Los Angeles City Building Code in place at the building’s initial construction (1970) determined room light fixture requirements. Options at the time include permanently wired light fixtures or switched outlets. Does your bedroom have a switched outlet?

A switched outlet allows for a lamp to be plugged into an outlet which in turn is controlled by a light switch (normally near the bedroom entry door).

The requirements you read above are for the Housing Authority of Los Angeles which is a local entity of the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. Those requirements are determined by the Federal government and apply only to properties who participate in Housing Authority of Los Angeles programs.

Once the owner has submitted payment of the RSO/SCEP Annual Fees to the Billing and Collections Section, he/she may collect a pass through surcharge from the tenants following the guidelines listed below.

For the $43.32 per unit for SCEP which provides an inspection, a re-inspection if a property has received a Notice to Comply and the hearing costs, and if the property is referred to the General Manager for Non Compliance

o Once paid, the property owner can begin to collect 100% of the fee from the tenants in 12 monthly installments of $3.61.
