Rent & eviction protection

Is 3020-3022 Laguna St rent-controlled?

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 2013
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Likely exempt from AB 1482. Housing with a certificate of occupancy issued within the previous 15 years is exempt from the state rent cap and just-cause rules.

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 property at 3020-3022 Laguna Street in Cow Hollow is a three-story, two-unit residential building constructed in 2013, following the demolition of a single-family residence in 2010. The construction project, which cost approximately $785,316, included comprehensive safety features such as a fire sprinkler system with 48 heads, a solar panel installation (1.075 kW), and advanced electrical systems with three meters and sub-panels. The building underwent significant infrastructure work in 2012-2013, including the installation of a radiant heating system, complete plumbing updates, and the addition of Tesla charging capabilities in 2020. Two notable complaints were filed during construction in 2012 regarding foundation issues at a neighboring property and unauthorized interior work, though these were subsequently resolved.

Recent concerns include multiple 311 calls in 2023 regarding waste management and shared space violations, though these were closed with various outcomes, including insufficient information and full abatement. A sewer backup issue was reported in 2019, which was resolved by contractor work. Most recently, in December 2023, a fire alarm system violation was issued but marked as abated, indicating resolution. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to safety systems, including the 2013 installation of a sprinkler waterflow supervisory system and a 2023 fire alarm system citation. The property appears to be generally well-maintained, with most historical permits marked as complete or expired, though some permits from 2012 remain in an inactive status regarding fireplace installation and plumbing work.

Risk rating

How 3020-3022 Laguna 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
73rdpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 232 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
