Mayor Bass Announces Aid For Small Landlords and Housing Providers

LOS ANGELES — Mayor Karen Bass Oct. 24 encouraged eligible small landlords to apply for the City of Los Angeles Measure United to House LA or ULA emergency renters assistance program after the application window opened yesterday morning. The application portal will remain open through 6 p.m., Oct. 31.

The emergency renters assistance program was approved by city council and signed by the mayor earlier this year as part of continued efforts to reduce the amount of evictions in Los Angeles. 

Do You Qualify as a Small Landlord or Housing Provider? 

Applicants must be a resident of the City of Los Angeles. To check visit https://neighborhoodinfo.lacity.gov/.

Once the application is submitted, tenants will be invited to apply. Rental arrears will only be provided to landlords on behalf of tenants that meet the ULA ERAP eligibility criteria, and the small landlord has provided the following: 

Proof of landlord photo identification 

Proof of property ownership 

A completed W 9 – Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification 

Proof of the tenant’s current monthly and past due rent. 

Small landlords who own less than 12 rental units whose tenants have already applied during the tenant application period continue to be eligible for the program. 

Financial assistance will only be payable to the landlord of the rental property. It is important for tenants to communicate with their landlord or housing provider and provide accurate contact information to avoid problems or delays in applications being funded. 

How Can Angelenos Apply? 

Call the Los Angeles Housing Department hotline 888-379-3150 Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
