The City of West Hollywood's Rent Stabilization Division implements and oversees programs and policies that promote inclusiveness and resilience in the community through the fair regulation of rental housing. The Division administers the City's Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which establishes rent increase limits and tenant protections for much of the rental housing in West Hollywood. It also provides information and assistance to tenants and landlords and administers protections related to rent overcharges, tenant harassment, evictions, and construction impacts. Mediation and administrative hearing services are available to help resolve landlord-tenant disputes.

The Rent Stabilization Division also administers a range of housing programs, including tenant habitability requirements during construction; Ellis Act eviction protections and relocation assistance; inclusionary housing; the Non-Rent-Controlled Unit Registry; and a registration fee rebate program.

Since 1985, the City of West Hollywood's Rent Stabilization Ordinance has provided rent increase limits and tenant protections in West Hollywood. In 2025, 15,788 rental units were registered in the Rent Stabilization Program and subject to the program's annual rent increase cap and minimum maintenance requirements.
