Rent & eviction protection

Is 3015-3017 Franklin 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 1922

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.

Built 1922
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 Woo Family Trust-owned property at 3015-3017 Franklin Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Marina neighborhood, constructed in 1922. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past several years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2019-2020. Major improvements included the addition of a new roof deck ($30,000) with subsequent modifications to guardrails ($2,850), extensive remodeling of both residential units including kitchen and bathroom renovations, and the installation of new infrastructure such as a high-efficiency furnace with ducting throughout ($200,000). The renovations also involved electrical upgrades including the installation of numerous fixtures, appliances, and safety features like smoke detectors, along with comprehensive plumbing work including new bathroom facilities, laundry areas, and gas lines.

During the renovation period, the property experienced two building complaints in March-April 2020 regarding alleged non-essential construction work during a mandated period, though these complaints are now listed as not active. The building's permit history shows careful attention to regulatory compliance, with all major permits marked as complete. Recent building maintenance issues documented through 311 calls have primarily involved street-level concerns such as garbage, parking violations, and illegal postings, which were promptly addressed by city services. The property has no reported planning code violations, and all major development activities have been properly permitted and documented through the city's planning records. The most recent permitted works included multiple permit renewals in 2020 for plumbing and mechanical systems, suggesting the completion of earlier renovation phases.

Risk rating

How 3015-3017 Franklin 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
67thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 326 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
