Rent & eviction protection

Is 1314 Pacific 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 before 1979
Built 1925
2 or more units

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1925
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

This two-story multi-family residential building, located at 1314 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill, was constructed in 1925 and contains 3 units plus a retail space, currently owned by the Young Family Trust A. The property has a documented history of maintenance and safety issues, most notably concerning lead paint hazards and structural elements, with the most recent plumbing upgrade completed in 2016 involving the replacement of copper pipes in a bathroom, kitchen, and for the water heater. A significant set of building violations was recorded in September 2004, including concerns about lead-based paint, damaged interior surfaces, stairs in need of repair, and weather-proofing deficiencies, all of which were addressed and abated by October 27, 2004. A more recent lead paint-related complaint was filed in July 2019 regarding insufficient cleaning of windows post-abatement work.

The building's maintenance history includes some recurring issues with exterior maintenance, as evidenced by a 2019 complaint about lead paint removal and an earlier 1999 complaint about roof leaks and rotting stairs and window seals. Recent building activity has primarily involved street space permits in 2018 and 2019, with no major building code violations or safety concerns recorded in recent years. The surrounding area has seen typical urban issues as documented in 311 calls, including several parking enforcement requests in 2022 for sidewalk parking violations by a white Jeep, and two garbage-related incidents in 2024. Street and sidewalk cleaning issues were reported and resolved through normal city services, indicating ongoing attention to exterior maintenance by city agencies.

Risk rating

How 1314 Pacific 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
38thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 698 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
