Rent & eviction protection

Is 62-64 Manzanita 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 1949

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.

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

62 Manzanita Avenue is a two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood, constructed in 1949 and currently owned by 62-64 Manzanita LLC. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades, with the most recent being a $40,000 kitchen refresh scheduled for March 2024, including new cabinets, appliances, and countertops. In 2021, substantial improvements were completed including a kitchen and 1.5 bathroom remodels, electrical upgrades replacing a Federal Pacific panel, and plumbing work that included shower pan installation. Earlier maintenance records show window replacement on the second floor in 2009 and stucco repair in 2007, while a water heater replacement was permitted but expired in 2019. The building's original 1993 roofing permit has expired, though this may have been addressed in subsequent years. A single 311 complaint about illegal postings was filed in 2015, which was investigated and determined to not be a persistent issue. The property has demonstrated regular maintenance and upgrades over time, with particular focus on kitchen and bathroom improvements, though the most recent permits suggest ongoing interior improvement work as of 2024.

Risk rating

How 62-64 Manzanita 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
