Rent & eviction protection

Is 2222-2224 Francisco 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 1930

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 1930
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 two-unit residential building at 2222-2224 Francisco Street in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1930, currently owned by Everett E & Lorraine R Kref. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major renovations occurring in 2016, including a comprehensive bathroom remodeling project (valued at $13,000) that included fixture replacements and tile work, the installation of a new hydronic heating boiler, and associated electrical upgrades including dedicated circuits and recessed lighting. Earlier improvements include a reroofing project completed in 2003 ($7,860), exterior stairs repairs in 2002 ($10,500), and foundation work including anchor bolt installation in 1990.

Recent maintenance and infrastructure work includes a main sewer line replacement in 2008, though this remains marked as "Issued" in the permit records. The building's recent history has been marked by recurring issues with parking violations in the vicinity, with multiple citations issued between 2023-2025 for vehicles blocking driveways. More concerning is a sewage backup incident reported in December 2024, though this appeared to be primarily street-related rather than building-specific. The property has experienced various infrastructure issues in the surrounding area, as documented through 311 calls, including a sidewalk defect reported in July 2023 and a curb defect noted in October 2024. While the building has received regular maintenance over the years, with attention given to both interior and exterior systems, the relatively recent sewage incident and ongoing parking enforcement issues in the vicinity are notable aspects of the property's recent history.

Risk rating

How 2222-2224 Francisco 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
52ndpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 474 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
