Rent & eviction protection

Is 2740 Green 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

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

2740 Green Street is a three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Cow Hollow neighborhood, owned by the GLK 2012 Revocable Trust and constructed in 1923. The property has undergone significant safety and infrastructure upgrades over the past several years, most notably the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system in 2020-2022 costing over $100,000, including monitoring and alarm systems. In 2020, substantial improvements were made including rear window and door replacements, dry rot remediation, and a major $300,000 landscaping project with new stone-graded stairs. The electrical system was also notably upgraded in late 2020 with the installation of multiple new circuits and sub-panels.

The building's recent history has included some construction-related concerns, with two complaints filed in 2020 regarding alleged unpermitted work and safety issues, though these complaints are no longer active. There have been multiple parking-related incidents involving blocked driveways, typically resolved through citations, and several service requests including a water main issue in 2021 and tree damage in 2022. The most recent known issue, from July 2024, involves excessive noise, which remains open as of the current date. The property has maintained compliance with all major building safety requirements, as evidenced by the completion of numerous permits, including those for fire safety upgrades, sprinkler system installation, and various maintenance projects.

Risk rating

How 2740 Green 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
44thpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 482 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
