If you rent a unit via Airbnb or Homeaway/VRBO in Noe Valley without following the rules, beware. Somebody appears to informing on illegal short-term rentals specifically within the boundaries of the affluent neighborhood known for its high stroller quotient. An investigation by the real estate website Socketsite found that more than 400 complaints about illegal rental activity have been made across San Francisco since the beginning of the year…. Over the last week, 31 complaints were filed. Defying statistical probability, 90 percent of those 31 referred to properties within the boundaries of Noe Valley.
