Rent & eviction protection

Is 1835-1839 Green 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.

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 three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 1835-1839 Green Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Dai Jung Kim and Yong Hwa Kim, was constructed in 1908 and has experienced several notable events over its history. The most significant and recent issues occurred in late 2018, when multiple violations were documented relating to lead paint hazards, carbon monoxide detector requirements, and damaged interior walls. These violations were abated between December 2018 and April 2019. During early 2019, there was a complaint regarding potentially improper handling of lead paint during power washing of the building. The building underwent electrical system upgrades in 2004, including a 200-amp panel installation and stair lighting improvements, while earlier maintenance work in 1998 included bay window repairs and a roofing project. More recent activity consists of routine street space permits in 2019 and several cleaning-related 311 calls in 2023-2024. A potentially concerning incident was reported in 2016 regarding an unpermitted shed construction, and there were past water leak issues between units documented in 1999. The building has experienced minimal fire safety incidents, with only one false alarm recorded in 2010.

Risk rating

How 1835-1839 Green 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
61stpercentile
