In response to the deadly 2015 Berkeley balcony collapse, California enacted SB-721 and SB-326 to prevent similar tragedies by mandating required inspections of exterior elevated elements, including balconies and decks. These laws address structural issues in multifamily properties that can lead to unsafe conditions if improperly maintained.
California SB-721 requires thorough inspections of all exterior elevated elements in multi-family residential buildings with three or more units by an inspection deadline of January 1, 2026, and every six years after that. SB-326 mandates that condominium associations conduct similar inspections by the same deadline but on a nine-year cycle.
Failure to comply with these regulations can result in legal consequences and costly fines for property owners—ranging from $100 to $500 per day–if repairs are not completed within 30 days of the inspection report.
