DO NOT POST VACATION RENTALS in SF RESIDENTIAL AREAS. IT'S ILLEGAL!! (San Francisco)
If you see a vacation rental listed on here in a residential area within San Francisco, PLEASE FLAG THESE ADS! If they are renting their homes/units/buildings/property less than 30 days in a residential neighborhood, THEY ARE ILLEGALLY RENTING THESE PROPERTIES! They are clearly by the Planning and Zoning Department of San Francisco not allowed to rent "Hotel Style Less Than 30 day Rental" in a residential neighborhood. IT IS AN ILLEGAL RENTAL! Those of you whom have contacted me with these illegal motels next to you know exactly what this abuse is. Call the Planning and Zoning "Code Enforcement Planner" Lois Scott, the "Code Enforcement Supervisor" for San Francisco and report them. The supervisor will put you in contact for the "Enforcement Planner" for your area of the city. Start documenting days their illegal guests come and go. Photograph the rental cars. If you see their properties on vacation rentals, save the pages and take screen grabs for documentation. If they are on one site, they are more than likely on several. Many of the web sites give the dates the property owners started listing their vacation rentals on the sites. This will tell you how long they have been illegally renting. The city will open a case, if they do not stop, the property owners will be cited and fined. Start by looking on VRBO.com. Almost all of these property owners advertise on this site. Additionally, please contact your local City Supervisor and the sites whom allow them to advertise these illegal rentals and request that they alert the property owners that these type rentals are illegal! I am personally collecting personal contact information on the ads for these illegal rentals and am going to inform the local news media to help the city crack down on these illegal rentals. Please let me know if you would like your Landlord(s), property owner(s) added to the list. Thank You

IT IS ILLEGAL TO RENT A VAC. RENTAL IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD!!! (San Francisco)
Are you sick of the neighbors next door to you, or close by in your neighborhood renting out their homes to any partying family that completely has no regard for the residential zoning laws? Are they using these homes in your neighborhood to have their gigantic family get togethers and take up all the parking on your street? Partying until the wee hours in the morning? Over using utilities such as trash & water. These homes and buildings are not meant to be hotels! These homes are not Zoned for what is termed by the Planning and Zoning Department of San Francisco Short Term Less Than 30 Day Hotel Rental. If you live in a nice little neighborhood with absolutely NO HOTELS, or MOTELS close to your home, chances are you live in a RESIDENTIAL AREA! PLEASE FLAG THESE ADS! I know we're not the only ones having problems with these nothing more than party house rentals next door to me and my children. Please follow the law and rent as a respectable landlord or you will be exposed to your community for what you really are, a lawbreaker! I am collecting names and personal information from these sites and an going to file a case with an investigative team from two of the local news channels. Do a search in the Vacation Rentals for your neighborhood and PLEASE FLAG these illegal ads. One of the worst which almost everyone advertises with is vrbo.com simply do a search for vacation rentals san francisco and the list will show. If they are on vrbo.com, copy some of their ad text aqnd search for that specifically and their ad will pop up in other sites. The more evidence you have the better! Take screen grabs of the sites web pages with their photos and text so you have current evidence of the listing(s). A lot of the sites even show at the bottom of the page how long they have been advertising on their site. This is great evidence. If you are having problems with this type of thing, call the SF city Planning and Zoning and contact Lois Scott the Code Enforcement Supervisor on the sfgov.com website and report them. They will be warned, cited and fined if they don't follow the laws. These property owners are not only DRIVING RENT PRICES UP by removing these units from the rental market, BUT they are RUINING THE BEAUTIFUL NEIGHBORHOODS OF SAN FRANCISCO! SAY NO TO LIVING NEXT TO A MOTEL! To put it plainly THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW! Call the city Zoning and Planning Dept of SF and report them! Thank You!
