What to watch forⓘ

  1. Tenants here have reported no heat or no hot water.
    details ▸

    California law requires heating facilities in good working order, and plumbing facilities in good working order including hot and cold running water. A rental unit that substantially lacks either may be legally uninhabitable, which is the standard the implied warranty of habitability sets for every residential tenancy in the state.

    Ask how heat and hot water are supplied and who pays for them. If either fails once you live here, put the request to the landlord in writing and keep a copy.

    • California Tenant Guide
    • San Francisco Housing Code §701
  2. Tenants here have reported mold.
    Worth checkingⓘ
    Look for dark spots on walls, floors and ceilings, and for dry or wet spots, flaking or bubbling, or a damp or moldy smell, especially in bathrooms and closets.
    details ▸

    San Francisco's Health Code treats visible or otherwise demonstrable mold or mildew in a residential building as a public health nuisance in its own right. Under state law, mold that the landlord has notice of and that affects livability or health can also breach the implied warranty of habitability.

  • Tenants here have reported pests.
    Worth checkingⓘ
    Look along baseboards and inside low cabinets for droppings, greasy rub marks or tracks, and check whether the bins outside overflow and whether gaps around exterior doors are sealed.
    details ▸

    California law requires buildings and grounds to be kept clean and sanitary and free from debris, filth, rubbish, garbage, rodents and vermin. San Francisco requires property owners to keep their property free of vermin, and requires an owner or manager to respond to a tenant's bed bug complaint by hiring a licensed pest control operator.
