Rental Board
IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR LANDLORDS
Landlords in San Francisco need a license before imposing annual and cumulative rent increases on their tenants, in accordance with the city’s rent control laws. To obtain or renew a license, landlords must report certain information about their residential units annually to the San Francisco Housing Inventory. Landlords can submit their Housing Inventory information to the Rental Board in several ways, but completing the process online at portal.sfrb.org is strongly recommended. Once the system accepts the submission, a rent increase license will be automatically generated and immediately available. Landlords can also submit a printed Housing Inventory form to 25 Van Ness Ave., Suite 700, San Francisco, CA 94102, or to rentboard.inventory@sfgov.org. For assistance, call 311 or email rentboard.inventory@sfgov.org. Visit sf.gov/rentboard for more information.
