Rent & eviction protection

Is 830-832 North Point St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1932

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1932
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 830-832 North Point Street in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood, owned by the Yee Elaine Trust, was constructed in 1932 and is classified as a Flats & Duplex structure. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, including a complete re-roofing in 2017 costing $20,600, kitchen renovations in 2011 involving cabinet and countertop replacements, and substantial electrical system upgrades in 2008-2010 including new 200-amp service with three meters and circuit breaker panels totaling $26,000. A notable termite remediation was completed in 2008, addressing multiple structural concerns per a professional report.

Most recently, in October 2024, there were two noise complaints filed regarding construction work starting as early as 8 AM, with one complaint remaining open until mid-November 2024. The building has a documented history of proper maintenance and upgrades, though the recent construction noise has drawn community attention. Previous improvements included replacement of kitchen fixtures in 2012 and various infrastructure updates, with all major permits showing completed status except for one 2008 electrical permit that was cancelled. The property has experienced typical urban issues as evidenced by 311 calls, including requests for street cleaning, bicycle sharing operations, and tree maintenance, though these are not directly related to building conditions.

Risk rating

How 830-832 North Point St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
94thpercentile
