1. CAUGHT ON ZILLOW
Popular Information has identified dozens of LA landlords who jacked up rents by as much as 100% after the fires started and thousands of people lost their homes.
California's price gauging law prohibits increasing rent by more than 10% during a state of emergency

A step-by-step checklist for homeowners who lost their properties. Info is confusing (do you apply to insurance or FEMA first?). Lets make it easier for our community to recover.

10.01.2025 18:13 — 👍 7023 🔁 790 💬 173 📌 23This is the right take. Burying our heads in the sand and giving up condemns future generations to even more suffering. Every bit of decarbonization today reduces that future pain. It’s a moral imperative.
