Like Senate Bill 323, Assembly Bill 3182 is a disaster for California’s HOAs. AB 3182:
- voids CC&R and other governing document provisions that require minimum rental terms of longer than 30 days, such as provisions that require minimum six month or one year leases;
- voids provisions that cap rentals at less than 25% of the homes, with accessory and junior accessory dwelling units exempt from higher caps;
- voids provisions that prohibit new owners from leasing;
- voids provisions that “unreasonably restrict” renting or leasing, which could include any provision that interferes with an owner’s ability to exercise those rights; and
- requires HOAs to amend their CC&Rs and other governing documents to remove voided provisions ASAP or face damages claims and civil penalties of up to $1,000.
