Rent & eviction protection

Is 2147-2151 Taylor 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 1916

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.

Built 1916
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 three-story multi-family residential building at 2147-2151 Taylor Street in Russian Hill, owned by Bugatto Eugene 1995 Separat, was constructed in 1916 and contains three units. The building's history shows several street space permits issued between 2004 and 2018, with the most recent being in October 2018 at a cost of $1.00. A significant cluster of fire safety violations was recorded in July 2006, including issues with fire escape stairs, fire extinguishers, and smoke detectors, though these were all abated by August 21, 2006. In December 2018, there were two complaints regarding potentially unsafe exterior painting and scrapping practices, with concerns about lead dust, though these complaints are now marked as not active.

More recent activity at the property primarily involves external issues not directly related to the building's condition. Between 2020 and 2024, there have been multiple reports regarding street and sidewalk cleaning, abandoned vehicles, and parking enforcement matters, with the most recent 311 calls being about abandoned vehicles in October 2024. While these external issues are regularly addressed by city services, they do not necessarily reflect on the building's current condition or management. The most recent building-specific complaint was in September 2023, categorized as a "Request for service" through the Department of Public Works, though details about the specific nature of the request are not provided.

Risk rating

How 2147-2151 Taylor 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
49thpercentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 578 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.
