Rent & eviction protection

Is 3812 Divisadero 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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1925
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-unit multi-family residential building at 3812 Divisadero Street in the Marina district is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1925 and currently owned by 3812 Divisadero LLC. The property's maintenance history shows several notable interventions, with the most recent being a significant electrical upgrade completed in September 2023, which involved replacing both the main Federal Pacific panel and three apartment panels, suggesting attention to modernizing critical infrastructure. In 2014, structural termite work was performed under ordinance #155-13, indicating proactive pest management, while earlier improvements included a kitchen renovation in 1998 involving cabinet and appliance upgrades. A housing inspection complaint was filed in 2003 regarding address numbering discrepancies, though this was resolved by February 2005. The only recent incident recorded was a parking enforcement matter in January 2023 involving a blocked driveway, which was resolved through normal channels and appears unrelated to building management issues. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and upgrades over time, with no pattern of persistent or serious violations that would impact resident safety or comfort.

Risk rating

How 3812 Divisadero 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
