Rent & eviction protection

Is 2576-2582 Chestnut 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.

Built 1927
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 multi-family residential building at 2576-2582 Chestnut Street in the Marina neighborhood, owned by 2578-2582 Chestnut St LP, has undergone significant renovations since its construction in 1927. Between 2010-2012, the property underwent extensive improvements valued at over $100,000, including bathroom and bedroom additions, kitchen renovations, heating system installations, and comprehensive plumbing and electrical upgrades across multiple units. Notable improvements included the remodeling of six bathrooms, three kitchens, installation of new water heaters, laundry rooms, and comprehensive electrical systems including safety features like smoke detectors. A gas line test for all four units was successfully completed in February 2012.

The building experienced several building violations in 2003 related to fire safety issues, including problems with fire escape ladders and combustible storage, as well as plumbing permit violations; however, these issues were all resolved by October 27, 2003. The property has maintained a regular schedule of routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2003, 2009, and 2016, with all cases marked as not active. Recent concerns primarily relate to external issues such as garbage disposal and parking violations, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage and debris, and parking enforcement matters, though these do not directly impact building safety or habitability. Two fire incidents were recorded, but both were non-serious occurrences: one was a smoke detector malfunction and the other was a "good intent" call, with no civilian injuries reported in either incident.

Risk rating

How 2576-2582 Chestnut 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 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 593 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
