Rent & eviction protection

Is 223-225 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 1915
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 1915
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 9-unit, 3-story apartment building at 223 Leavenworth Street in the Tenderloin, owned by Boschetti G Paul, has a lengthy and concerning history dating back to its 1915 construction. Most recently, in 2024, multiple fire violations were documented, including issues with sleeping area requirements and emergency signage that were subsequently abated. The building underwent significant repairs in 2012 following tenant complaints about a deteriorating exterior wall and damaged flue pipes, which were addressed through a completed $5,000 permit. Historical violations reveal persistent maintenance challenges, including problems with fire escape ladders, window frames, weatherproofing, and hallways requiring cleaning and sanitization, though most were abated by August 2012. Regular inspections between 1999-2008 and fire safety inspections in 2006 noted various violations, including issues with fire extinguishers, standpipe systems, and fire escape maintenance. The property has experienced minimal structural fires, with most fire department responses involving false alarms, system malfunctions, and elevator rescues, suggesting relatively good fire safety performance despite the documented violations. Recent 311 calls from early 2025 primarily involved street cleaning issues such as graffiti removal and debris cleanup, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges in the surrounding area. A storefront transparency and security gate permit application is currently under review as of 2024, suggesting potential modifications to the building's exterior.

Risk rating

How 223-225 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.

Neighborhood percentile
87thpercentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 22 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
