Rent & eviction protection

Is 2315 Bush 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 1905
2 or more units
6 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RH3
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1905
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 apartment building at 2315 Bush Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Alan & Odine Jou, was constructed in 1905 and has undergone several significant improvements and inspections over its lifetime. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $60,000, bringing it into compliance with current seismic safety requirements. The property has maintained active infrastructure upgrades, including a $60,000 water service replacement in 2016, though some permits from earlier periods, such as an electrical system upgrade in 2008 and kitchen remodeling from 1998, have expired.

The building underwent a comprehensive housing inspection in January 2016 that revealed multiple interior and exterior maintenance issues, including problems with rainwater leaders, wall and stair paint conditions, roof door repairs, siding maintenance, and lead paint considerations. These violations were all addressed and abated by February 2016. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various systems, with foundation bolting completed in 1994, though some earlier permits for improvements, such as reroofing (1994) and code compliance work (1988), are now expired. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved external issues such as sidewalk cleaning and tree root concerns, with multiple 311 calls regarding parking enforcement in 2024 and ongoing tree-related matters as of 2023.

Risk rating

How 2315 Bush 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
40thpercentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 402 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.

Number of units

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

Building size

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
