- As long as an owner lives on the site, an HOA may not ban the rental or leasing of a portion of the home. Assembly Bill 1410.
- Clarification of existing laws to make it easier to build ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units). In addition to procedural changes, this law attempts to make it easier to build ADUs in two ways: by prohibiting "local governments from imposing front setback standards that make it impossible to build a new ADU; and by incorporating the proposed changes to ADU height limits that are proposed in SB 897 which would facilitate two-story ADUs in certain locations that are amenable to that height, such as near transit, when the ADUs are part of a multi-story multifamily project, or when the ADU is attached to the primary home." Assembly Bill 2221.
- Under Assembly Bill 2170 prospective owner-occupants,
nonprofits, or public entities of foreclosed properties have prioty. This law also prohibits institution from bundled sales of
such residential one to four properties, and must sell them individually, in order for individual purchasers, rather than large investors, to have an opportunity to buy.
- Homeowners may add up to two bedrooms in an existing dwelling unit without requiring a public hearing. This law applies to all cities, and only to a permit application for up to two additional bedrooms. Assembly Bill 916
