Here 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.
