Rent & eviction protection

Is 1300-1326 Grant Ave 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 1907

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 property at 1300-1326 Grant Avenue is a two-story multi-family residential building with 14 units, constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Toracca Properties LP. The building has undergone numerous modifications and improvements over the past several years, with the most recent activity focusing on accessibility improvements in September 2023, including door replacements and installation of automatic push button door openers. The building has an extensive history of commercial space usage, particularly as a restaurant/retail space, with significant renovations completed in 2016 including the installation of a fire suppression system, ventilation, and plumbing upgrades for food service equipment. Multiple fire code violations were recorded in December 2021, though all these issues were subsequently resolved.

The property has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including three active building violations in 2015 related to damaged wall tiles and lead paint concerns, and three historical violations in 2008 concerning unpermitted plumbing work and construction. There have been multiple complaints about the commercial space, including unauthorized construction work in 2010 and 2012, and a 2018 violation for failure to comply with the vacant commercial storefront ordinance. Recent activity in November 2024 shows multiple reports of garbage and debris incidents around the property, though these are related to street cleaning rather than building conditions. The property has undergone various improvements to meet modern safety standards, as evidenced by the recent accessibility upgrades and past fire safety installations, though some historical violations related to overcrowding and unpermitted work indicate previous maintenance challenges that appear to have been addressed.

Risk rating

How 1300-1326 Grant Ave'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
3rdpercentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 663 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
