Rent & eviction protection

Is 22 Iris 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.

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.

Just-cause eviction

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 22 Iris Avenue, located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood, is a two-story structure built in 1948 and currently owned by Kathryn R. Devincenzi. The property experienced significant maintenance-related issues in August 2016, when multiple building violations were filed regarding interior and exterior conditions, including problems with weatherproofing, paint maintenance, and potential lead hazards. These violations, which classified the property as a "nuisance" under San Francisco Health Code Section 1001-d, were officially documented on August 18, 2016, with a notice of violation warnings emphasizing lead paint safety concerns. Fortunately, all cited violations were resolved by November 2, 2016.

In response to the building's improvement needs, a permitted project was completed in 2016 for the replacement of eight wood windows, with an investment of $10,140 in energy-efficient upgrades. Since the 2016 violations, the building's record shows no further interior maintenance issues, though there have been various parking-related incidents near the property between 2020 and 2024, including complaints about driveway blocking. A minor fire safety concern regarding blocked exits was reported in December 2017 but was determined to have "No Merit." The building's recent history suggests improved maintenance compliance, with all documented violations having been addressed and resolved in a timely manner.

Risk rating

How 22 Iris 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
78thpercentile

Out of 272 buildings in this neighborhood, 60 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
