Understanding Rent Control in the Bay Area If your property was built before a specific date (usually in the 1970s), it likely falls under rent control. In cities like San Francisco, Oakland, and Berkeley, there are strict limits on how much you can increase the rent each year.
If you live in San Francisco, you are usually covered by rent control. The major exceptions are: You live in a rental unit with a certificate of occupancy after June 13, 1979, with a few exceptions. This “new construction exemption” is the biggest exemption in San Francisco.
In Oakland, rent control applies for most tenants living in units built before 1983, but excludes almost all of those living in condos and single family homes, regardless of when those units were built.
Fully owner-occupied units, including single family homes. Hospitals, skilled nursing, or health facilities. Non-profits or substance abuse recovery facilities. Non-profits to support the homelessness.
Your unit is covered if your building was built before 1983, and there are two or more units in your building, Except if you rent a unit in a single-family home or a inium unit from the owner.
Any rental unit built after 2/1/95, as well as houses and condos, are not under rent restrictions. Even where these rent restrictions do not apply, eviction protections do continue.
Oakland Municipal Code Section 8.22. 360(A)(10), permits a rental unit to be vacated so that the landlord can make needed repairs in your unit that cannot be completed while the tenant is living there.
The city has long limited rent increases to 60% of CPI, and starting in 2022, Oakland passed an ordinance capping rent increases at 3% if the CPI increase exceeds that rate. Landlords can't raise rent more than once a year, and they need to inform tenants in writing 30 days prior to any increase going into effect.
