CA AB754

Annual rent increases for floating home berths in Marin County marinas are capped at the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U for San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward area), with a minimum of 3% and maximum of 7.5%, effective July 1, 2025 through January 1, 2038

For in-place transfers (sales where the floating home stays at the same berth) involving homes with 10-year or longer leases, marina management may increase rent by the lesser of 25% over the prior rate or 0.15% of the sale price, with buyers required to certify the sale price under penalty of perjury

Marina owners in Marin County must ensure fees for utilities and services reflect actual costs and demonstrate that services charged were actually rendered; fees for enforcing marina rules are prohibited

The bill applies retroactively to rent increases occurring on or after July 1, 2025, with any excess increases between July 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026 rolled back without liability to marina management

Exemptions apply to affordable housing berths restricted by deed or government agreement, and local ordinances that set stricter rent increase limits than provided in the bill take precedence
