This is what you get when you force out mom and pop landlords and end up with big box monstrosities like Citiapartments. When the final straw comes for me and I sell my buildings I doubt if the corporation that will surely buy them will be as attentive and caring as I am about my tenants. You can thank Chris Daly and the rest of the socialists on the BOS for turning SF into a shithole, apartment-wise.

I think Glen may have a point. In fact, it was the arbitrary actions of Trinity Apartments (another big monstrosity) back in the 70s that prompted a backlash strong enough we now have a rent control law that ensures some people get cheap rent for the rest of their lives (at the landlord's expense) while others who left and returned to SF pay much higher rents, essentially subisidising those (who in many cases dont need the rent control protection OR don't even live in the unit but keep it off the market).
Since then, there's been a drive to tack on more regulations, always benefitting one part of San Francisco, but providing no help to the rest of us. Basically if you're extremely poor in San Francisco, the City backs you up. If you work for a living, they don't care. And they sure don't help small scale landlords mitigate rent control with help on maintenance either.
The politics of choose-up siderism never benefits the majority.

As a former leasing agent I have to say that deleting and flagging craigslist ads is rude and irresponsible unless you know for a fact that the ad is bogus. In the case of Citiapartments, who has leasing agents that are treated like 3rd party vendors and have nothing to do with the financial decisions made by the executives of that company, your "fun" flagging simply wastes the time of those 3rd party vendors. Leasing agents are told what Citi's guidelines are and are asked to essentially liaise on their behalf. I'm not here to defend Citi, but you should know that you are adversely affecting the lives of people that aren't responsible for Citi's mishandling of money.
