Rent & eviction protection

Is 2810-2812 Bush 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 1900
2 or more units
3 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RH2
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 1900
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 three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 2810-2812 Bush Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Ross A Robinson Jr & Molly, was constructed in 1900 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two decades. Most notably, in 2014, there were extensive problems with the exterior deck and stairs, including severe dry rot and damage, resulting in multiple permits for repairs totaling $37,000. During this period, there was also a building complaint regarding unpermitted deck expansion and fire safety concerns, though this complaint status is listed as not active. The building's electrical system underwent a major upgrade in 2006, with the installation of a new 400-amp meter main and circuits. There have been recurring sewer issues, with three documented sewage backup incidents between 2015-2019, and in 2014, a damaged sewer drain was reported near the sidewalk, though this plumbing permit was canceled. More recent maintenance issues include a general building inspection request in January 2024, an open case regarding an overgrown tree blocking street lights from December 2023, and a street cleaning issue in January 2024. The property has also experienced some infrastructure issues, including sidewalk repairs in 2007 and a street space permit in 2011, along with a historical fence permit violation from 2010 that was resolved in 2012. While many of these issues have been addressed and resolved, the frequency of sewer-related problems and structural maintenance needs, especially during the 2014 renovation work, suggest ongoing vigilance is required regarding the building's infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 2810-2812 Bush 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
47thpercentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 355 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.
