While it is possible that most landlords don't have rent-controlled properties, I think the majority of renter-occupied housing is subject to rent control. FYI almost anything built prior to 1979 is rent controlled. Also, what sf calls rent controlled is what nyc calls rent stabilized: when tenants leave the landlord can reset the unit to market rents. The law only caps increases while the same tenant lives in the same apartment. data: proportion of renter occupied housing in sf subject to rent control: http://www.thehdmt.org/indicators/view/192 http://www.thehdmt.org/indicators/view/192 2nd map direct link: http://www.thehdmt.org/img/indicators/pdf/RentControlHousingStock.pdf http://www.thehdmt.org/img/indicators/pdf/RentControlHousing...
