The Rental Dwelling Unit Inspection Program is intended to maintain and improve the quality of life of Pittsburg residents residing both in and around rental property. This is accomplished by ensuring rental properties are properly maintained and situations that may bring blight upon a neighborhood are prevented.

Pittsburg’s residential rental inspection program became effective in March 2006. The self-funded program requires owners of all residential rental property to register their property, with exceptions for owner-occupied or fully subsidized units. The program also includes a self-certification program for qualified property owners. See below for registration and renewals, answers to common questions about the program, and a helpful guide to tenants' and landlords' rights and responsibilities.

Please contact us at RentalProgram@pittsburgca.gov or call at 925-252-4270 with any questions. 

This program is mandatory and there will be penalties for non-compliance.
