Rent & eviction protection

Is 2101 North Point 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 1927
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 three-story, 18-unit multi-family residential building at 2101 North Point Street in the Marina neighborhood was constructed in 1927 and is currently owned by Charles & Claire Mcbride Trust. The building has undergone several significant upgrades and repairs over its history, with the most recent being a $32,500 fire alarm system upgrade completed in 2024, including the installation of 24 low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and new power supplies. In 2024, multiple electrical permits were filed and completed for fire warning and control devices, indicating ongoing commitment to safety improvements.

The building's maintenance history reveals attention to structural integrity, with foundation work and soil grouting completed in 1991. The property has experienced recurring fire safety violations, though most have been promptly addressed. Recent violations in 2024 and 2021 included issues with sleeping area requirements, fire extinguishers, emergency lighting, and various fire code compliance matters, all of which were subsequently abated. A notable compliance issue occurred in late 2018 regarding the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, which was resolved within weeks. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to parking violations and street cleaning issues, with several citations issued for sidewalk parking violations in 2024. The building's safety record shows no civilian injuries from fire-related incidents, though there have been several false alarms and good intent calls recorded by the fire department.

Risk rating

How 2101 North Point 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
29thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 701 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.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.
