Rent & eviction protection

Is 2000-2022 Chestnut 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 1927

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.

Annual rent increase cap

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 43-unit, 5-story multi-family residential building at 2000-2022 Chestnut Street in the Marina neighborhood, owned by Merigan Family II LP, has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past few years. Since 2022, the building has seen extensive unit-specific upgrades, including bathroom remodels, electrical updates, and plumbing improvements in multiple units (301, 302, 307, 309, 210, and 110), with permits issued for these works totaling over $200,000. A major fire safety upgrade was completed in 2023, involving the replacement of the fire alarm system's control panel and devices to comply with current safety standards, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas. The building also accommodates T-Mobile's wireless telecommunications system, with recent permit applications in 2025 for antenna and equipment upgrades.

The property's maintenance and safety history shows generally responsible management, with most historical violations being addressed by 2016. There was a recent fire code violation issued in November 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, though this appears to be a relatively minor issue compared to past concerns. The building has experienced typical urban issues such as encampments and street maintenance matters in the vicinity, as documented in recent 311 calls. While there have been several fire-related incidents recorded by the fire department, including false alarms and system malfunctions, there have been no reported civilian injuries. The building's heating system compliance issues from the early 2000s, including boiler permit violations and heating hour requirements, were resolved by 2016, and recent work suggests proactive maintenance of essential systems.

Risk rating

How 2000-2022 Chestnut 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
8thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 909 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Number of units

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Building permits (past 7 years)

Number of permits pulled at this address — construction or renovation activity over 7 years.
