Analyst, analysis of Assem. Bill No. 1164 (1995-1996 Reg. Sess.) p. 2.) Thus, “[notwithstanding any other provision of law, an owner of residential real property may establish the initial rental rate for a dwelling or unit,” except in specified situations. (Civ. Code, § 1954.53, subd. (a).) Although the Costa-Hawkins Act does not define “initial rental rate,” the parties do not dispute that Civil Code section 1954.53, subdivision (a) permits landlords to impose whatever rent they choose at the commencement of a tenancy.
