Sabbaticals
Are you seeking a tenant while on sabbatical?
Homeowners
Short-term Rental: While University Hills homes must remain one’s primary residence, owners are permitted to rent their housing unit on a short-term basis for a lease term no longer than 12 months (short-term rentals may be made for more than one lease term to different tenants, up to a maximum of 13 months in any three-year period).
Long-term Rental: University Hills owners are permitted to rent their housing unit on a long-term basis while on University-approved sabbatical or leave for a maximum of two years.
For all rentals, short-or long-term, owners are to first seek a UC faculty or staff member as their tenant. Irvine Campus Housing Authority (ICHA) maintains a waitlist of faculty and staff seeking a rental opportunity in University Hills.
Except for rentals less than thirty (30) days, owners must notify ICHA of the rental/tenant information.
