Rent & eviction protection

Is 3035 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1923
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1923
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 3035 Divisadero Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Donald & Rona Friedman since 2004, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923. The property has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime, including a horizontal addition and a kitchen/laundry remodel with bedroom conversion in 1988, and a sewerline replacement in 2013. A reroofing project permitted in 2002 appears to have expired. The building has experienced two smoke detector-related fire incidents, though both were caused by malfunctions with no civilian injuries reported.

Recent history (2022-2024) shows recurring issues with parking enforcement, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple citations issued to various vehicles between June 2023 and August 2024. The property has also faced some maintenance challenges, including loose garbage issues in 2023-2024, and a tree-related incident in September 2023 involving potential damage to the building. A graffiti incident was reported and abated in July 2022. The most recent building-related complaint was resolved in September 2024, involving garbage and debris. While the property has maintained basic structural and safety improvements over the years, the recurring parking enforcement issues and recent maintenance concerns may be of note to current and prospective residents.

Risk rating

How 3035 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

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
77thpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 198 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
