In an SF rent control unit, if the tenant signs a 1 year lease, are they able to decide if they stay or not after the 1 year initial lease term is over?

- aetherson 13y agoYes, unless their landlord is able to evict them for whatever reason. (And, to be clear, all or essentially all rental units in SF are subject to rent control).
- spiralpolitik 13y agoHere are the major exemptions to Rent Control in SF: 1. You live in a building constructed after June of 1979. 2. You live in subsidized housing, such as HUD housing projects. 3. You live in a dormitory, monastery, nunnery, etc. 4. You live in a residential hotel and have less than 28 days of continuous tenancy. So most of the new developments in the last 30 years aren't covered by RC.
- aetherson 13y agoI hadn't realized the post-1979 thing! Sorry for the misinformation above. I guess that every place I ever considered renting in SF was an older building.
