The Small Site Acquisition Program funds the purchase & stabilization of multi-family rental buildings in neighborhoods that are susceptible to evictions and rising rents. This program allows for more buildings to be rehabilitated and permanently stabilized as deed-restricted to households earning up to 120 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI), to include very low, low, and more middle income San Franciscans. This program also includes active encouragement of new development to preserve buildings housing tenants at risk of displacement through the City’s Inclusionary Housing Program, which requires developers to contribute to new affordable housing alongside their market-rate development.
