Rent & eviction protection

Is 380-384 Chestnut 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.

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.

Annual rent increase cap

Just-cause eviction

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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 380-384 Chestnut Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by the Rose Mary Kennedy Living Trust, was originally constructed in 1929 and consists of two stories. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being performed in 2014 when structural reinforcement was completed in the basement, including the installation of sill bolts and plywood panels at a cost of $5,600. A routine housing inspection in 2005 revealed multiple safety concerns that were subsequently addressed by August 2005, including issues with fire extinguishers, wood stairs, lead paint hazards, smoke detectors, and garage fire safety. The building's maintenance history includes a furnace replacement in 2008, termite remediation in 1991, and various renovations in the late 1980s and early 1990s including kitchen and bathroom remodels, reroofing, and a vertical addition.

Regular inspections have been conducted on the property, with the most recent routine inspection occurring in 2016. The building's maintenance record shows attention to both structural and safety improvements, though the 2005 inspection period highlighted several areas needing immediate attention. The property has also been subject to various municipal services requests in the surrounding area, including tree maintenance (2018), paint shop services (2017), and curb painting requests (2017). While the building's violation history shows all cited issues were resolved, it's worth noting that many of the repairs and improvements were made to address specific safety concerns, particularly during the 2005 inspection period, rather than as part of regular maintenance.

Risk rating

How 380-384 Chestnut 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
75thpercentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 171 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
