San Francisco Tenants Have Rights!

→You have the right to a safe, habitable home and repairs should be made in a timely manner.

→Your landlord cannot discriminate against you because of your race, ethnicity, place of birth, immigration or citizenship status. Threats about your immigration status are harassment and are illegal under the rent ordinance.

→You don’t have to move even if your landlord is pressuring you to leave or selling your building. Eviction is a legal process.

Talk to a tenant counselor before you sign anything! You don’t have to face landlord harassment alone! There are free tenant rights clinics across the city offering counseling and legal support.
