Who We Are

Rent Board Navigator was founded by Lingsch Realty as a response to the growing need for clear, accessible guidance in navigating San Francisco’s Rent Board. With over 20 years of experience in San Francisco real estate, we saw first-hand how both tenants and landlords often struggle with the city’s complex rent regulations.

For tenants, we provide guidance and support to ensure their rights are protected and that they are not taken advantage of by unscrupulous landlords. For landlords, we offer resources and expertise to help them remain compliant with Rent Board requirements while managing their properties effectively.

Our goal is to bring clarity, fairness, and balance to Rent Board issues, helping both sides find their way through a system that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
