Renewal Increase Policy
As of January 1, 2019, Employee and Family Housing (EFH) is following a graduated renewal increase that ranges from 1% to 5%. EFH determined this graduated increase, as it best responds to the resident feedback. All fee changes are approved by the Vice President & CFO, Administration and Finance as well as the University President.
When You Will be Notified
You will be sent a renewal packet with the new fees at least 30 days before your existing contract expires.
How to Determine Your Potential Increase
You can contact our office directly to receive your increase amount or use the following formula to calculate the percentage based on your unit floorplan:
(Published License Fee – Your Current License Fee) / Published License Fee = % Difference
Units with a license fee of between 0-15% below our published fees = a 1% increase.
Units with a license fee of between 15-30% below our published fees = a 3% increase.
Units with a license fee of between 30%+ below our published fees = a 5% increase.
Please Note: As the annual rate increases occur, you will move through the tiers to a smaller percentage increase.
Things to Know
Employee and Family Housing is a self-support unit that does not receive General Fund allocations from the State of California. Therefore, all License fees are set to cover all operating, maintenance and infrastructure improvement expenses.
All residents who moved in after SFSU had acquired ownership of the property will be included in this renewal structure.
