Rent & eviction protection

Is 2007 Pacific Ave 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 1961
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 9-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 2007 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, owned by MVM Investments LLC, has undergone significant recent maintenance and upgrades, particularly in 2023-2024. Major improvements include a complete reroofing project ($137,000), window replacements (both front-facing fiberglass windows and non-visible vinyl windows), and an upgrade to the fire alarm system with low-frequency sounders to meet current fire code requirements ($27,001). The building has experienced periodic fire safety-related issues over the years, with violations noted for extinguisher maintenance, exit maintenance, and sprinkler testing in 2018, and multiple fire-related complaints between 2018-2021, though these issues have been documented as corrected or abated. A notable cluster of building violations occurred in August 2022, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and a leak source that were all addressed by November 2022.

The property has a consistent history of window upgrades, with significant installations in 2022 (front-facing windows) and 1995 (49 aluminum windows replaced with double vinyl). Historical building permits show various maintenance and improvement work dating back to the 1990s, including plumbing upgrades with a new hot water boiler and storage tank installation in 2019. Recent tenant activity includes a buyout of 3 tenants in July 2024, with compensation of $30,000. While the building has experienced typical urban maintenance issues as evidenced by recent 311 calls for garbage and debris (early 2025), these appear to be standard external building maintenance matters.

Risk rating

How 2007 Pacific Ave'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
21stpercentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 761 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
