Rent & eviction protection

Is 3533-3535 Scott 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 1925

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 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 property at 3533-3535 Scott Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Marina district. Built in 1925, this flat and duplex-style structure has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent significant work being the replacement of 11 rotted wood sash windows on both the street side and rear of the building in October 2023, at a cost of $16,000. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, including the installation of a new furnace for units 3533 and 3535 in March 2017.

The property has experienced three routine housing inspections (in 2002, 2007, and 2011), with the 2002 inspection revealing multiple issues that were subsequently addressed within two months, including repairs to stairs, fire extinguisher recharges, garbage receptacle placement, and security improvements. While the building's documented history doesn't show any active violations or complaints since 2011, there has been a pattern of recent parking enforcement issues around the property, particularly regarding driveway blocking, with multiple citations issued between 2021 and 2025. A planning record from 2023 indicates approved window replacement work within existing openings, featuring wood sash structures with divided-light upper sections, including fixed and double-casement windows on the second and third floors, demonstrating the owner's commitment to maintaining the building's historic character through appropriate window replacements.

Risk rating

How 3533-3535 Scott 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
74thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 257 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
