San Francisco’s largest residential landlord is refusing to give back security deposits. CitiApartments is possibly going broke and, according to the head of the San Francisco Tenants Union, refusing to refund many tenants security deposits (he says they’re getting three to four complaints a week). CitiApartments’ buildings are filled with vacancies because their business model is purchasing buildings and then harassing and intimidating tenants into moving out so they can raise the rent.

The end of the SFAppeal article states: “if a person really wanted to push back against whatever it is that CitiApartments is doing, they could pretty easily twist the knife a bit on craigslist simply by flagging every single CitiApartments listing.”

Here is the website dedicated to fighting CitiApartments and here are links to a three part series on CitiApartments by the San Francisco Bay Guardian. And here is an article on CitiApartments parent company from San Francisco Business Times.
