State law only: 8.8% for Aug 2026 to Jul 2027 on the units AB 1482 covers. An individually owned house or condo is exempt from the state cap only with the statutory exemption notice in the lease. Corporate or LLC-owned homes are capped. Blackhawk, Alamo and Diablo are unincorporated, so county permitting and HOA rules apply there rather than the town's.
// the rulebook
Danville has no local rent cap, no registry and no local just-cause ordinance, so state law alone applies: 8.8% for Aug 2026 to Jul 2027 on covered units, and no cap on an individually owned house or condo when the lease carries the AB 1482 exemption notice. The town requires a business license for rentals, but owners renting four or fewer units are exempt, which covers most of the people who hire us. Blackhawk, Alamo and Diablo sit outside town limits, under county rules, gated HOAs and 24-hour HOA security, each with its own leasing paperwork. With a $4,995 house, every empty week costs about $1,165, and that is where management earns its fee here, not in cap math. Parts of Danville are mapped Very High fire-hazard, which drives defensible-space work and insurance renewals. We get the exemption notice right, clear the HOA's tenant registration before move-in, confirm coverage, and lease to the family and executive tenants who pay these rents.
// what owners run into
Blackhawk and Diablo run gates with 24-hour HOA security, and Alamo is unincorporated with county permitting. Each association has tenant registration, gate access and move-in rules, and a lease that skips them stalls at the gate on move-in day.
An empty Danville house costs about $166 a day, or $1,165 a week. With about 2,400 renter households in town, the pool is small and family-driven, so missing the summer window is expensive.
Parts of Danville are mapped Very High fire-hazard on the 2025 state map. Defensible-space work and a policy that renews on a tenant-occupied house are owner obligations we track, not tenant ones.

No. Danville has no cap, registry or local just cause. State law applies: 8.8% for Aug 2026 to Jul 2027 on covered units, and no cap on an individually owned house or condo if the lease carries the AB 1482 exemption notice.
We do not have a published Danville figure to quote. What we control is the gap: marketing starts before the current tenant leaves, HOA approvals run in parallel with screening, and pricing comes from this month's comps rather than last year's lease. At $4,995 a month, every week saved is about $1,165.
The town requires one for rental businesses, but owners renting four or fewer units are exempt, so a single house does not need one. If the house is in Blackhawk, Alamo or Diablo, county rules apply instead, and we confirm those at onboarding.
Typical East Bay management runs 6 to 10% of collected rent plus a leasing fee of half to one month's rent. Our full schedule is on the fees page.
