Before you trust us

The city's website is free. Why pay?

The city publishes the rules. It does not work out what your building owes, and it does not keep your record. We do both.

What if your numbers are wrong?

Every number shows its document and the day we checked it. When we get one wrong we fix it that day and email everyone affected. Read the change log.

I have two units. Is this overkill?

It is built for self-managing LA landlords, at any number of units. If you already have a property manager, you do not need us.

Good Standing is a reminder and record-keeping tool, not legal advice, and not a government agency. We file nothing for you. For a dispute or an eviction, talk to an attorney.

You bought a building, not a filing job.

Most of these rules did not exist when you signed your first lease.
