How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 14 small homes within 3 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.
- Only prices a home put out itself count: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price Seniorly says the home confirmed. Prices a listing site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
- Nearby homes are the nearest of the same size that publish a rate, widening from 3 to 40 miles until at least 8 do. The estimate starts from what they charge, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.
- Room, care-level, second-person and move-in lines come from what California homes publish on listing sites. Memory care uses Covelight’s researched premium over assisted living.
- Totals add each line’s figure and combine the lines’ ranges as separate charges, because a home is rarely at the top, or the bottom, of every line at once.
- We tested this estimate on 1,546 California homes that publish their own starting rate. It was within 10% of the real rate for 3 in 10 homes and within 25% for 7 in 10; the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 (September 12, 2026).

Avoid surprises on the billWhat changes the price, and what to ask
- The care level
Some homes charge one all-inclusive rate. Others add levels or points as needs grow. Ask how the level is set, who decides, and what the next level costs.
- What is billed separately
Medication management, incontinence supplies, transportation and a second person in the room are often extra. Ask for the list in writing.
- Move-in costs
A one-time move-in fee or deposit is common. Ask what it covers and whether any of it comes back if the stay is short.
- Increases
California requires at least 90 days’ written notice, with reasons, before a rate rises (Health & Safety Code §1569.655). A change in the resident’s care level is the section’s own exception and can be billed sooner.
An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Type of visit: Required - 1 Year
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Samer Haddadin conducted an unannounced annual inspection of the facility. Upon arrival, LPA Haddadin was greeted by Administrator Eric Lin, who granted entry and was informed of the purpose of the visit. The LPA toured both the interior and exterior of the facility and made the following observations. The facility is a single-story residence comprising six resident bedrooms, three resident bathrooms, a living room, a kitchen with a dining nook, a dining area, a laundry room, and a staff break room. At the time of the visit, three residents were present. All residents’ bedrooms were inspected and found to be appropriately furnished with beds, chairs, and clean linens. These rooms provided adequate storage and were free of tripping hazards. The kitchen was in good repair, with all major appliances operational. Knives and other sharps were secured and inaccessible to residents. A first aid kit was available, containing all required elements and a first aid manual. Medications were observed to be properly stored in a locked closet. All fire alarms and carbon monoxide detectors were tested and found to be operational, and auditory devices on exit doors were in proper working order. An Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) with a separate address is located on the property. Both buildings are included on the facility sketch and have the necessary fire clearances. The exterior of the facility was well-maintained, with furnishings in good repair and pathways unobstructed. The grounds appeared safe and inviting, featuring a shaded seating area for residents. Fire extinguishers were fully charged, with indicators in the green zone, and the most recent inspection was noted as April 4, 2026. (Continued on LIC 809-C) The hot water temperature was measured at 113.3 degrees Fahrenheit, which meets regulatory requirements. Records indicated that the last emergency drill was conducted on April 20, 2026. The facility maintained sufficient food supplies, including at least two days’ worth of perishable items and seven days’ worth of non-perishable items. A review of resident files revealed no discrepancies, and staff files were inspected and found to be up to date. Based on today’s inspection and observations, no deficiencies are being cited in accordance with Title 22, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to the licensee.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 14, 2026

Type of visit: Prelicensing
Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Rose Ruppert made an announced visit to the facility for the purpose of conducting a pre-licensing inspection. LPA met with Administrator (AD) Eric Lin. An application to operate a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly (RCFE) was received by our agency on November 1, 2024 for a total capacity of six non-ambulatory and a hospice waiver for six. The facility is a single story residence with six resident bedrooms, three resident bathrooms, a living room, a kitchen area with a nook, a dining area, a laundry room and break room. There is an Additional Dwelling Unit with a different address that resides on the property. Both buildings are on the facility sketch and have fire clearances. LPA toured the exterior of the property and observed a shaded seating area and ramp, a raised garden bed and two self-closing gates. LPA toured the kitchen area and observed that there were seven day non-perishables on hand and will stock with two-day perishables once residents are in care. Knives are secured in a locked drawer and disinfectants are stored in a locked closet. All appliances are new and are working. A First Aid Kit had all of the required elements and included a First Aid manual. Medications will be stored in a locked closet. All fire alarm and carbon monoxide detectors were operational and auditory devices on exit doors were in working order. The hot water temperature measured between 106.8 and 108.3 degrees Fahrenheit. The fire extinguisher is charged and was serviced on December 19, 2024. All bedrooms had the required furnishings with a bed, linens, chest of drawers and lighting. There are motion detector lights for hallways. (Continued on LIC 809-C) (continued from LIC 809) LPA observed the PUB 475, Emergency Disaster Plan, Theft and Loss Procedures, Personal Rights and Resident Council notices on a bulletin board near the entry way. Administrator's Certificate expires on August 29, 2026. AD Lin was advised that Administrator must always be available. AD will fill out LIC 308 with Administrative Designee or look into a full-time Administrator. LPA conducted the Component Three Orientation with AD. AD was notified that the final application approval will be issued by the Centralized Applications Bureau in Sacramento. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to Licensee.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Apr 14, 2025

“Typical” is the statewide median for licensed homes this size. It does not adjust for years licensed, and older licenses have had more visits and reports. The median is across the 6,916 licensed small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds) in the state record. The figures compared are the state’s totals, not the documents.

An “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing — it means the state investigated and could not confirm the allegation. Outcome words are the state’s own; we never grade, score, or color a record, and we publish no reviews — the state’s dated documents stand in their place.

$5,400 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,400–$6,650. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 14 small homes within 3 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.

Among 194 other homes of a similar licensed size across Orange County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,500 to $6,000 a month, and the middle figure is $5,000 (n = 194 other homes publishing a starting rate).
Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date between September and October 2026 — not an average of ours, and not a survey. Similar size means small and mid-size homes counted together, and large communities counted on their own, because they are different markets.
A home outside the band is not overcharging or underpricing: a starting rate covers different things in different homes, which is the first thing to ask about.
The price is made in the phone call. Nothing here is a quote, an offer or a discount.
A starting rate is the room and the base care. California homes commonly bill care levels, medication management, supplies, transport and a second person in the room as extras. Many also charge a one-time fee at move-in. Ask for that list in writing before anything is signed.
