No, as the City of Los Angeles 9a report is separate from the California State TDS – Transfer Disclosure Statement – which may be exempt in some circumstances.
In a nutshell the RPR, or Residential Property Report, also known as a 9A report, is required and issued by the City of Los Angeles, Department of Building and Safety. It has many different purposes to it.
First, the purpose of the report is to inform buyers of potential or pending special assessments to the property, such as plans for new sewers or sidewalks, which the City of Los Angeles may be planning. Over the years, Building and Safety has added other items to this report, as a way to make sure properties are in compliance with various minimum code requirements, at the time ownership is transferred. These added items are the retrofit or code compliance items which are inspected during a retrofit inspection.
The report will include copies of permits issued on the property and a report of pending or special assessments or liens from the city of LA.
Here is a link on how to fill out the 9a report.
