Tenant Protection Program (TPP)

The Sacramento Tenant Protection Program (TPP) establishes local rules related to rent increases, eviction protections, and tenant rights.

This program may include additional notice requirements, rent increase limitations, and relocation assistance obligations depending on the situation. Landlords should carefully review how TPP applies to their property, as local rules can differ from or expand upon state law.

30-Day / 60-Day Notice

These notices are typically used to terminate a tenancy or to notify tenants of changes, depending on the length of the tenancy and the circumstances.

The required notice period and allowable use cases are governed by California law, and in some cases, local Sacramento regulations may also apply.

3-Day Notice to Rent or Quit

A 3-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit is a legal document used by landlords to begin the eviction process when a tenant has failed to pay rent on time. This notice informs the tenant that they have three days (excluding weekends and court holidays) to either pay the full amount of rent owed or move out of the property.

If the tenant does not comply within the three-day period, the landlord may proceed with filing an unlawful detainer (eviction) lawsuit in court. This notice must be completed accurately and served properly to be legally enforceable under California law.

Security Deposit Itemization

This document is used after a tenant moves out to provide an itemized list of any deductions taken from the security deposit.

Landlords must follow strict timelines and provide supporting documentation for deductions. Failing to do so can result in penalties or disputes.

Sixty-Day Notice of Termination of Tenancy

This form is used to terminate a tenancy or to notify tenants of changes, depending on the length of the tenancy and the circumstances.

The required notice period and allowable use cases are governed by California law, and in some cases, local Sacramento regulations may also apply.

Notice of Entry

A Notice of Entry informs tenants that the landlord or an authorized party will enter the property for a legally permitted purpose, such as repairs, inspections, or showings.

California law requires landlords to provide reasonable advance notice and to enter only during acceptable hours, except in emergencies.

AB 1482 Just Cause and Rent Limit Exemption Addendum

This addendum is used to notify tenants that a rental property is exempt from California’s Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (AB 1482), which includes statewide rent caps and just cause eviction requirements. It must be provided in the lease or as a written addendum when claiming an exemption—most commonly for single-family homes or condos not owned by a corporation.

The form documents the applicable exemption, includes the required statutory notice language, and provides written acknowledgment from the tenant, helping ensure compliance with California law.

Sacramento Tenant Protection Program (TPP)

This form is used to inform tenants whether a rental property is subject to the City of Sacramento’s Tenant Protection Program (TPP). It outlines key tenant rights, including just cause eviction requirements and potential relocation assistance, and documents the property’s exemption status if applicable. This notice helps landlords maintain compliance with local regulations and ensures tenants are properly informed of their protections under Sacramento law.
