Rent & eviction protection

Is 1945-1947 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 1923

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
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 two-unit residential building at 1945-1947 Chestnut Street in the Marina neighborhood, owned by John Casimir & Lisa Marie S, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923. The building's maintenance history includes several significant improvements, such as a complete window replacement in 2003 (replacing 10 windows with vinyl) and reroofing work in 2004, though the latter permit is now expired. There was an attempt in 2001 to add an exterior residential elevation and deck, but this permit was cancelled. The property has experienced regular fire alarm system activations over the years, with a total of six recorded incidents, though none resulted in actual fires or civilian injuries.

Recent municipal service calls from 2024 suggest ongoing challenges with the surrounding area, including issues with encampments, illegal parking, and garbage disposal, particularly in mid-2024 when multiple reports were filed. These external factors, while not directly related to the building's condition, may impact resident experience. A series of fire safety violations was recorded in late 2023-2024 at a nearby property (3500-3510 Fillmore Street), though it's unclear if these incidents are directly related to the Chestnut Street building. The most recent building-related service calls have primarily concerned external conditions rather than internal building issues, including reports of abandoned electronics, blocked driveways, and sidewalk obstructions. The building currently shows no active violations or open permits that would indicate immediate concerns regarding safety or maintenance.

Risk rating

How 1945-1947 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
62ndpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 375 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
