Estimate the structural valuation discount rent control places on your building — the gap between what it would sell for free and what it sells for under RSO, AB 1482, or LA County RSTPO.
Rent control is not a temporary constraint. It compounds. Every year the gap between in-place and market rents widens, the value you cannot capture grows. That gap shows up as a discount on the sale price, whether you acknowledge it or not.

Simplified model. Uses standard 35% operating expense ratio, assumes 3% annual market rent growth, and applies the regime's current annual cap. Does not model tenant turnover, vacancy decontrol events, or capital improvement pathways that may allow above-cap increases. Verify with your broker.
