Rent & eviction protection

Is 2014-2018 Laguna 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 1947

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.

Built 1947
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 four-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 2014-2018 Laguna Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Joyce M Chan Living Trust, was constructed in 1947 and has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years. Most recently, in 2022, the property received substantial upgrades including an in-kind kitchen and bathroom remodel, installation of recessed lighting, and the conversion of a bathtub to shower, with associated electrical and plumbing work totaling approximately $30,000. The building has undergone several major infrastructure improvements, including a complete electrical system upgrade in 2004 with new service lateral and load center, and reroofing work in 2016.

The property experienced notable compliance issues in early 2016 during an annual routine inspection, resulting in multiple violations that were subsequently abated by July 2016. These violations included requirements for fire safety measures (such as sprinklers and fire extinguisher maintenance), security upgrades (such as door viewers), and safety inspections of common areas. Earlier maintenance work included significant repairs to front stairs in 2004 due to termite damage, costing $47,000. The building's documented history shows consistent maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, though there were some building code violation concerns in the past, particularly regarding fire safety and security requirements that have since been addressed. The property has had minimal fire-related incidents, with only one recorded false alarm in the system.

Risk rating

How 2014-2018 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
81stpercentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 183 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
