Success Guide

Empowering Renters with Knowledge

Rental Housing Success GuideRENTING IN OUR BEAUTIFUL beachside community can be a pleasant and rewarding experience. However, it is difficult to negotiate a year of renting without encountering a few difficulties. The Rental Housing Success Guide is meant to dispel confusion and help you, the tenant, avoid the pitfalls of rental housing. This Guide provides information and advice on where to live, how to choose (and keep!) roommates, what to do when problems arise, and a wealth of other topics. You owe it to yourself to fully understand your rights AND responsibilities before you begin looking for a place to live!

If you have additional questions, concerns or issues related to the topics in the Rental Housing Success Guide please contact Community Housing Services at 805-893-4371, by email housinginfo@housing.ucsb.edu, or in person in the UCen on the 3rd Floor.
