Tenderloin Housing Clinic: $640M flowed from SF since 2007, $107M reached landlords, $533M kept by the middle layer while people sleep on the street GovGrift illustration · cumulative city payments vs. landlord pass-through, FY2007–FY2026

How Tenderloin Housing Clinic kept $533M of $640M in SF master-lease money

Since 2007, San Francisco has paid Tenderloin Housing Clinic about $640M to operate SRO master-leases. Roughly $107M reached the actual landlords. We traced the $500M+ gap, the related-party network behind 23 of 24 buildings, and the audit holes that let the spread stay invisible.

Every GovGrift case starts with the primary record: IRS Form 990s, SF Board of Supervisors files, CMS provider enrollment data, state SOS records, court filings. Our research agent pulls and cross-references these, then produces a forensic report with every claim cited to a hashed, cached source PDF. We track each case until the named agency or recipient publicly responds, and we time-stamp every status change.
