Question about Rent Control/RSO Guidelines for Los Angeles

[Kenan Heppe]

Hey everyone!

I'm looking into purchasing a duplex in L.A.(Hollywood), with the intent of occupying it myself. I've read on some sites that an owner-occupied duplex would  be exempt from rent control restrictions. Does anyone have the actual legal literature on this? I can't find the actual written legal rent control ordinances anywhere. All I find are blog posts or unofficial lists/pdfs/summaries. If anyone has the actual law that would be specific to the Hollywood area, that would be wonderful!
