Rent & eviction protection

Is 1506-1510 Leavenworth 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 1900
2 or more units

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 1900
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-unit residential building at 1506-1510 Leavenworth Street in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighborhood is a three-story structure built in 1900, currently owned by Kenneth M. Bermudez. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, with the most substantial work occurring in 2016 when an $80,000 electrical rewiring project was initiated to modernize the building's lighting and outlets while maintaining fire safety standards. In 2017, multiple permits were issued to address items identified in physical inspection report CC-7750, including kitchen and bathroom remodels ($40,000 total) and various plumbing and electrical improvements. The building has experienced some notable maintenance and safety issues over its history, particularly in 2001-2008, when violations included problems with rear stairs/landing members, handrails, roof safety features, and expired fire extinguishers, though all of these violations were officially abated by December 2008.

More recent issues include a 2022 complaint about the garage configuration, where it was reported that the conversion from three to four parking spaces resulted in access problems for three of the four spaces. The property underwent a 3-unit condo conversion process, which was approved by the Planning Department, further indicating significant investment in the building's infrastructure and modernization. The building's recent history is marked primarily by routine inspections and maintenance work, with the most recent routine inspection recorded in 2016. A review of 311 calls from 2021-2024 shows patterns of sidewalk cleaning and parking enforcement issues near the property, though these are external to the building itself. The combination of completed major electrical, kitchen, and bathroom renovations, along with the resolution of historical violations, suggests a generally well-maintained building structure, though the most recent garage access complaint from 2022 indicates that some systems may still require ongoing attention.

Risk rating

How 1506-1510 Leavenworth 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.
