Rent & eviction protection

Is 2331 Jackson 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 1900

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 1900
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 2331 Jackson Street in Pacific Heights, owned by the Kuntz Family Trust, has undergone numerous significant renovations since its construction in 1900. Most recently, in June 2024, a permit was filed for a 122-square-foot horizontal addition on the second floor, driveway excavation, bathroom remodel, and various deck and balcony improvements. The property has seen substantial solar energy improvements; a solar panel installation is currently in process (July 2024) with 14 roof-mounted PV modules and two energy storage units. Between 2014-2019, the building underwent major interior and exterior work including foundation replacement, bathroom remodels, and electrical system upgrades with a new 200-amp service installation.

The property experienced some regulatory challenges in 2015, including Notices of Violation related to exceedance of permit scope concerning the carriage house demolition, though these were eventually abated in November 2016. Multiple complaints about construction noise and neighbor notification were filed in 2014-2015, and there were several parking-related enforcement actions near the property in 2022-2024, though these are external to the building itself. Recent improvements include installation of EV charging infrastructure (2022), various bathroom renovations (2021), and exterior maintenance work. The building's maintenance record shows regular updates to fixtures and systems, with proper permit filing and completion procedures generally followed, though some permits were marked as expired or withdrawn during the process.

Risk rating

How 2331 Jackson 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
96thpercentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 39 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
