Rent & eviction protection

Is 3040-3044 Fillmore 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 1906

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 1906
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 three-story multi-family residential building at 3040-3044 Fillmore Street, owned by Mary E. Hansen and located in San Francisco's Cow Hollow neighborhood, was constructed in 1906 and contains three residential units along with a commercial space. The property has experienced recurring issues with its commercial storefront, having been cited multiple times for violations of the Vacant Commercial Storefront Ordinance between March 2023 and June 2024, with a director hearing scheduled for December 2023. Several storefront vacancy complaints were filed between March 2023 and June 2024, with the most recent complaint remaining active as of June 2024. The building's maintenance history shows various permitted work, including a gas line installation to a furnace in 2014 and rear stairs and deck replacement in 1989, with several sign-related permits issued in the 1990s.

The property has experienced multiple fire alarm activations over the years, though none resulted in actual fires or civilian injuries, indicating potential system malfunctions. A recent Code Enforcement complaint filed in June 2024 remains pending resolution. The building has generated several 311 calls since 2015, primarily regarding graffiti, illegal postings, and maintenance issues, with the most recent calls in 2024 relating to garbage and pavement defects. An exciting development is currently under review for the commercial space - a proposed venture called "Amour Wine Bar" aimed at providing an inclusive wine experience for novices and enthusiasts alike, with the goal of demystifying wine culture and making it more accessible to the community.

Risk rating

How 3040-3044 Fillmore 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.
