Sacramento rental property owners subject to the program must register their properties annually and pay an annual program fee of $20 per unit. Properties owners will receive an annual registration packet that must be completed and returned to the City.
After registering, we will invoice property owners annually based on the number of registered rental units in their name. The fee helps pay the City’s cost to implement and enforce the program.
Landlords who fail to register their rental properties and/or pay the annual program are subject to administrative penalties.
For information on the registration process, please contact tpp@cityofsacramento.org or call 916-808-8121.
