New Changes to San Francisco Owner/Relative Move-In Evictions

1/8/2018

 
San Francisco recently amended their laws on Owner/Relative Move-In (OMI/RMI) Evictions to add more protections to displaced tenants and more procedures for landlords to follow.

Now, Landlords are required to include/do the following on top of the OMI 60-Day Notice:
  1. Blank Change of Address Form (for tenants to advise the Rent Board of their change in address);
  2. Declaration by Landlord that the OMI was done in good faith and for their principal place of residence for at least 36 continuous months;
  3. Landlord must file a Statement of Occupancy within 90 days of the OMI Notice and update that form every 90 days after that until Landlord recovers possession. Further, Landlord must update this form every year for five years. Landlord must include supporting documents. The Statements will be sent to the displaced tenant(s). There are fines for non-compliance.
  4. Rent Board will send a notice within 30 days of the eviction date and once a year every 5 years that states the max rent for the affected unit.
  5. There is now a 5-year period (instead of 3-years) for which the Landlord must offer to unit back to the displaced tenant if the landlord decides to re-rent the unit. Landlord must file a copy of this offer within 15-days, and Tenant has 30 days to accept or reject the offer.
