Rent & eviction protection

Is 2 Parker Ave 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
2 or more units

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

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 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 15-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2 Parker Ave, owned by Antonio & Rita Castellucci, has been in operation since 1930 and is currently facing significant structural and safety concerns. The building is currently non-compliant with the Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, with active violations filed in 2022 and 2023 regarding unmet seismic safety requirements. Recent major concerns include ongoing structural issues as evidenced by a June 2023 complaint detailing deteriorating walls, foundation cracks, unstable lobby steps, and drainage problems, which remains active as of now. The building has a history of multiple unit renovations from 2011 through 2019, including several kitchen and bathroom remodels, some of which were done without proper permits and resulted in complaints. There have been recurring fire safety concerns, as shown by multiple fire complaints between 2016 and 2024 regarding alarm systems, exit maintenance, and electrical systems, though these have been marked as corrected.

The property has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including a notable cluster of violations in 2016 involving lead paint hazards, garage drainage problems, broken windows, inadequate lighting, and storage issues. While some past problems have been addressed, such as a 2015 soft-story retrofit permit approval (valued at $120,000), the more recent structural and seismic compliance failures are particularly concerning. The building's maintenance history shows attention to unit improvements and repairs, but ongoing structural issues and non-compliance with modern safety requirements represent significant challenges for the property. The owners have also faced violations regarding unauthorized construction in 2014 and water leakage issues in 2018, though many historical complaints have been resolved or deemed not active.

Risk rating

How 2 Parker Ave'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
5thpercentile

Out of 272 buildings in this neighborhood, 258 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
