Rent & eviction protection

Is 2043-2047 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 before 1979
Built 1907
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1907
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 3-unit multi-family residential building located at 2043-2047 Taylor Street in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood was constructed in 1907 and is currently owned by Christopher Chow and Bon Park. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work in recent years, with the most substantial improvements taking place in 2019, including a comprehensive $116,000 renovation of the third-floor apartment (Unit 2045) that included updates to bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry facilities. Other notable improvements from 2019 included the replacement of 14 windows (6 front-facing and 8 rear-facing), installation of a new tankless water heater, driveway grading work, and various electrical upgrades.

The building experienced several maintenance issues between 2020-2021, including heating system problems, electrical issues with a newly installed breaker box, and a range of interior surface violations such as mold/mildew, damaged walls, and concerns about lead-based paint. These violations were addressed and abated by February 2021. More recent activity at the property includes gas line work in early 2020, additional electrical wiring installations, and several 311 calls related to street cleaning and garbage issues external to the building between 2022-2024. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing both routine upgrades and responding to various regulatory compliance issues, with most recent work focusing on exterior and infrastructure improvements.

Risk rating

How 2043-2047 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
28thpercentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 816 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

What's driving this score

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Building age

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